BESTIVAL
Isle of Wight, Friday-Sunday
There's still time to get down to the last major festival of the summer. Radio One DJ Rob Da Bank's Isle of Wight shindig is a friendly, jolly affair. Chief draw is the Scissor Sisters; look out, too, for French electro kings Justice, gypsy punks Gogol Bordello, sunny scamp Lily Allen and blind funkateers Amadou and Mariam. www.bestival.com
BLOGGER'S DELIGHT
Lock Tavern, 35 Chalk Farm Road, NW1, Sunday noon till close.
Proving that music bloggers are not all jaundiced onanists, this new night brings the interweb's finest together. Cutting-edge sounds from the likes of Casper C of Fluo Kids, Headphone Sex and Skull Juice on the decks.
