Hello, I heard Landing Lights in the Tunnels the other night courtesy of Phil's playlist and it sounded amazing, I was a few glasses of red wine gone and it really struck a chord! Just thought I'd share that! Hope all's well in Edinburgh x

The set on Sunday night was really good, I might even go as far as super good.

In fact I will.

Your set on Sunday night was super good.

Possibly the most emotive band i've seen come out of Aberdeen. I was majorly impressed, especially with the vocals.

For Neil (+Jim haha)...Neil, being after various demands made, i was meant to look at+listen+comment appropriately on your new songs...this would be remembering, BUT, i am currently off my head on Fruit Pastilles so no comment will make any sense, +it's the same as asking a 3 year old on sugar to do something sensible. But least i remembered right?
Hahaha, why are you friends with me again:) ?

Me! XXXXXxxxxxxxxxxx <----the sugar is making me NICE-r than usual:)
