    I plan on going to see Skrillex in London next month.

    But kinda confused about this part with tickets

    Normal tickets £X and brixton at 19:00

    Then there is...

    Skrillex & Friends Aftershow, Skrillex Plus Special Guests (Cheaper tickets + its at 22:00)

    What does this mean? will this be a set as well just at a different time or what?

    Anyone explain?

    Normally it's just a club and the band might turn up and throw on a few records.

    A way for the band to get extra cash for doing feck all as the club will pay them to appear.

    Or it could be just a club that has no affiliation with the band whatsoever, just trying to make a few quid off the fans.
    Best bet is ask in the bands official website/FB to see if they're actually involved with it.

    Sometimes, As AnonoBoy said, The band will be spinning discs. I remember when Paul Weller played his last stint in the Olympia, I was at 2 of the gigs, and after one of them Steve Craddock (Guitar) done a DJ set in the Mercantile. Could be similar to that.
