Hey there lads, Hope you're doing well. Just a reminder its the LIVE STUDIO XMAS party next Wednesday and you're invited, hope to see you there and have a natter G
Alright lads. Thanks for the add. Glad you enjoyed the set on Sunday. Was a bit worried the room was too big for the acoustic song but seems it worked ok. Annoyingly didn't get to see all of your set as we were getting all our stuff together so will definitely try to make it down to one of your upcoming gigs... though it might not be till next year! Liking the tracks - Never Be The One in particular.
alright guys a belated congrats on a great set at the cross all that time ago, and thanks for the nice compliments. We'd love to play with you again if the chance arises!! x
