S4 EP5: Bloc Party

We are trying to be heroic in an age of modernity, and, in other news, we are releasing an ep from the old Patreon vaults (shout out to the £3.80 legends of yesteryear): a deep dive between gigs into the sinister hum of Ivo's music journalism circa 2007 (or was it 2005?), going in to bat for the second Bloc Party album, musing on what it's like to be in a band (not that we'd know), and commissioning a fantastically speculative bit of data-harvesting for a starting price of £200. We will charm, we will slice, we will dazzle you with our wit! For extra bonus Gig Pigs episodes and exclusive content every month head over to www.patreon.com/gigpigs to support the show.

Seated or standing? Support band or drinks? Sing along as loudly as possible or watch in respectful silence? These are the dilemmas that have plagued Ivo and Alex - stand up comedians by night, gig pigs by night off - over a decade and a half of watching live music together and it’s time to start opening them up to the floor. Join them every Thursday to find out who they’ve been to see live this week, and which guest they roped along for the ride. 'Gig Pigs' with Ivo Graham and Alex Kealy. A Keep It Light Media Production
