The Victoria & Albert Museum is hosting a free Sixties Fashion exhibition until the 25th February 2007.
To celebrate this the museum is hosting a free event on Wednesday 9th August called "60s Underground Lost and Found" - an opportunity to "relive the 60s underground scene with a day and night of Northern Soul, Bluebeat, Ska and Rocksteady"... or so they say!
The event runs from 1pm till 9.45pm and includes films about Northern Soul and a DJ and dance session with selectors Gladdy Wax, Keb Darge, Andy Smith, Ady Croasdell and the Tighten Up crew.
There will also be an after party at the Jazz Cafe from 11pm till 2am. Admission to that is £5 with a special V&A voucher.

Sigh. I wish I could fly over for this exhibition at my favourite museum.
This blog makes me envious of all the events I am missing, but it's nice to see what you are up to!
