THUGS N HUGS - CARNIVAL PARTY

Honk if you’re horny. Bogle if you’re bored. Toot if you’re cute.
And repeat. It’s the Thugs & Hugs Notting Hill Carnival mantra 2008.
Last year’s Thugs & Hugs Carnival party was headlined by our good friend Squeak E Clean from Los Angeles (N.A.S.A project, producer of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Show Your Bones, brother of Spike Jonze) and was an unsurprisingly crazy affair. This year we’re bringing it back - in collaboration with Dazed & Confused - introducing a very special trinity from New York City: Dante Lorenzo Gonzales, Rye Rye and Leif AKA the exclusive London debut of the Dante Fried Chicken show. Also catch Caspa, Dom Sum & Fineart, Patchwork Pirates, DJ Gigolog "The Mixx" Knight, Questrel, and some secret guests.

The party is on Sunday 24th August at the Fat Badger, 310 Portobello Road, London W10, and it's free before 6pm then £5. Get there early - even if you're on the guestlist - because it's strictly first come first served. Expect to see exclusive footage from the party on DazedDigital.com next month.
