Stuff Valentine's Day and head to the O2 Academy Islington to take part in the ultimate anti-dating night. Down With Dating precedes Feeling Gloomy's Tainted Love night and is ideal for all those heartsick homies who are fed up with dating events treating them like a pint glass of chopped liver. The alternative night's entertainment includes the world famous Speed Hating ("The hottest dating craze" according to MSN, no less) and a spot of Blind Hate (no doubt with presenter Kila Slack). Down With Dating's part of the show runs from 8pm-10pm and includes free entry to the Feeling Gloomy after party where, who knows, you may even meet the guy/girl of your dreams.About O2 Academy Islington
