  • Get Physical co-founders Booka Shade have announced details of a new London live show confirmed for early September. The stand-alone gig was organised in light of issues at last month's Lovebox Weekender festival, which saw overcrowding in the Relentless dance tent lead to an early shut down of the stage mid-way through Booka Shade's set. In a statement on their website, the duo explained that as "security were unable to manage the situation and... the police decided to pull the plug for safety and licensing issues." Lovebox organisers have arranged the make up show for September 10, and plan to announce support acts in the coming weeks. Taking place at the 2400-capacity HMV Forum in Kentish Town, the large-scale party will take advantage of a one-off late license for the venue, which will be in operation until 2 AM. Pre-sale tickets for Booka Shade at HMV Forum are now available here on RA.
