The venue will be Floripa at Old Street, which is a beautiful bar and restaurant, and it has a lovely square we can spill out onto and revel in the sunlight. It’s the perfect place to celebrate the Jubilee, hope to see you there!

Love,

What is Musical Bingo?
Join American presenter Jess Indeedy and eclectic DJ Helix for a night of friendly competition and amazing prizes! Musical bingo is like normal bingo except instead of calling out numbers we play songs. Mark the songs off your card as you hear them, and run up to Jess Indeedy to claim your prize! We’ve collaborated with Drink, Shop & Do to come up with some brilliant and rather saucy prizes!

About The Venue 
Drink, Shop & Do is a design shop and café bar selling products from emerging designers alongside vintage furniture and home wares. The gorgeous café bar serves exciting cocktails such as the ‘Mrs. Pepper Pot’ with chambord, raspberry puree & basil, and ‘One Free Hour in The Candy Store’, with ice cream, oreos & baileys. They also put on regular ‘Do’ events which involve crafting, games, and make your own sundaes. It’s basically your new favourite place to drink. www.drinkshopdo.com

Decorate A Dauber!

ABOUT FLORIPA
Floripa is the nickname of a Balearic style city-island off the coast of Brazil, the short form of the beautiful and unique flower of Ipanema and a brand new venue in Shoreditch where Brazil and London come together in a hedonistic bohemian cultural fusion.

Floripa mixes all convivialities – it is a Brazilian-influenced restaurant, a bar for the globe, a London bloc party club, an Ipanema-inspired colonial bordello, an idyllic sunset circus and indeed none of the above.

Players can personalize their very own Musical Bingo with Jess Indeedy bingo dauber with ribbons, gems, racing stripes, buttons, pom poms and more!

It’s an excellent summing up of our monthly Thursday nights at Drink Shop & Do! Have a read of the review here.

Here’s some content from our latest newsletter! To sign up to receive our newsletter monthly, just click here.

Hello Friends and Fans,

We write to you with another action-packed instalment of our monthly newsletter. It’s exciting times here at Indeedy Towers, in January we broke a record by selling out three Musical Bingo gigs in the space of a week! We are so pleased that you all come out en force to our events, and we are really grateful for our die-hard fans who keep coming back. We have so much fun putting on these parties so it’s a dream, really. Jimmy Cliff was right.

In the last month our mailing list has doubled! So hello to all of our new readers, this newsletter will arrive in your inbox monthly and will contain news and information about our upcoming events, a little love letter from us, and some fun treats, photos, and invites to our more exclusive events. Welcome to the family!

We’ve got so many Musical Bingo gigs coming up, the world is about to get a lot happier and full of prizes. Our Thursday nights at Drink Shop & Do in Kings Cross are steadily fantastic and wild, and our Friday nights at Balham Bowls Club are packed to the rafters and end in a flailing dance party. Last month’s show at Shoreditch House was full of hot competition and luxurious prizes. In March we will be bringing our fun and games to two additional new venues, please read more about these wonderful new entries to our stable of fun in the listings section of this email.

My slightly obsessive list-making night, I Love Lists, has garnered so much buzz it’s unreal! Who knew that making lists in a social atmosphere would attract so much attention? In addition to appearing on BBC London 94.9, I made an appearance on BBC Radio Scotland a few weeks ago to talk about it. The night has been recommended by Time Out, and we’ve just had the mother of all amazing reviews in Arts News London, which you can read here. The next event is on March 8th if you’d like to make some lists with me.

NEW EVENT ALERT! NEW EVENT ALERT!

I’m launching a new event concept on March 30th for people who get a bit antsy on a Friday. For those who can’t wait for the weekend to start. For those who like to dance. I am pleased to introduce:

LUNCHTIME DISCO

Lunchtime Disco is London’s only daytime dance party! Taking place in the new nightclub below Drink Shop & Do, aptly named Drink Shop & Dance, a gorgeous haven of cocktails that features a large black disco ball, a DJ booth atop a piano, and vintage pinups seen through peepholes in the walls. We’ll be putting on Lunchtime Disco on the last Friday of every month (after payday, natch), so please join us for a cheeky drink and dance with your favourite colleagues and friends. With an eclectic and truly danceworthy music policy and guest DJs, the first edition will be on Friday, March 30th and you can get tickets in advance in our web shop.

Thanks for reading this month’s newsletter, and we hope to see you soon – whether it be competing for prizes, making lists, or dancing during lunchtime!

Love,

Jess Indeedy and Helix xxx

WEDDINGS, HEN DOs, PRIVATE EVENTS

 We love putting on Musical Bingo for weddings, hen dos and private events; it works really well for all age groups and musical tastes, and we specialise in thawing out even your most reserved guests. We’re equally popular for corporate functions, for which we create individual and team competitions and strike that balance between morale boosting and team-building. For our information pack and rates, please send us an email at info@musical-bingo.com

Thanks for coming back to read more about all the organised fun I’m creating in London these days. In January we reached record attendance for Musical Bingo and sold out three gigs in the space of a week! Thanks to all of you who came to those, hope you had as much fun as we did! Congratulations to all of our lucky prize winners, I’m sure life has improved dramatically since you won the sandwich toaster/champagne/giant calculator.

The next thing I’m serving up (life is a buffet of fun) is my list-making night, I Love Lists in Stoke Newington on Thursday, February 16th. I originally created this concept for a one-off event in 2010 at Electric House (part of the Soho House Group who I work with regularly), and dusted it off again in December 2011 for the good people of London. I felt it was time for us all to get together and make some lists in a fun, social atmosphere, to take a snapshot of London’s collective consciousness, and to create a workshop of sorts that would leave people feeling fulfilled and more organised.

I’ve always loved making lists, thus the title of this peculiar nightlife event, and I find that making lists with friends and colleagues leads me to some great ideas about improving my life, career, and sense of direction that I probably wouldn’t have come up with by myself. Please join me to make some lists, you can find more information about the event below and if you have any questions feel free to email me at info@jessindeedy.com.

Love always,
Jess Indeedy xx

125 Church Street
Stoke Newington, N16 0UH
£3 in advance here: www.musical-bingo.com/page3.htm

Do you have a penchant for making lists? You’re not alone. Lists write the future and chronicle the past, and they provide order to the chaos in this world. But most of all, making lists is seriously fun!

Join presenter Jess Indeedy of Musical Bingo fame for London’s new list-making night at I Love Lists! You’ll define what you love, loathe, and you’ll learn interesting facts about yourself and your friends. The night concludes with an awards ceremony for your listing skills.

The February edition will feature What I Want To Achieve In 2012, My Favourite Vegetable Dishes, 10 Things I Love About London, Embarrassing Albums Of My Formative Years, plus many more!

It would almost be therapy if there weren’t cocktails involved.
Don’t forget to bring your favourite pen, list books will be provided.
