Hooray you are doing another show - though I would surely end up having some kind of coronary going south of the river, even south of the Regents Canal...Hope it's as fun as the Shrigley show. Lots of news very soon.

I need to get my hands on that compilation, it looks beautiful.

I'm quite excited about this 8-piece band concept. Hopefully I'll get a chance to see it in action when I'm in the UK this winter and spring.
