4 on the floor

Any fan of the Gang Of Four is alright with us dept: Those post-post-punks Radio 4 open their Dublin account with an April 15 show at Whelan's. Expect to hear a hefty dollop of material from Gotham, the New Yorkers' debut album which has been a permanent fixture on the Hotpress windy-up gramophone of late.

Also upcoming at Whelan's on March 11 is ex-Longpigs and Pulp man Richard Hawley.
