About me:

Promoter from London organising Let's go baboon nights. Enjoy chaotic and charming gigs rather than smooth well organised ones. Their isn't really a theme as such, try and keep it as eclectic as possible

UPDATE APRIL 21st 2008:
After a brief sabbatical, Let's go baboon is returning to a bright new future.
More details soon but the main information is the gigs:

The next gig is:
17th JUNE 2008 featuring:
The Declining Winter (featuring co-founder of Hood, Richard Adams)
Arthur and Martha
By The Fireside
More details to follow. It is a Bardens Boudoir though...

The one after is
1st August 2008
Brixton Windmill
Dan Fishback (Cheese on Bread main man)
and much more to follow very soon.

We are now very much up for many more gigs so let us know if you're keen...

2007 - have had some brilliant, brilliant gigs which have been:

January 28th 2007 at the Windmill our venture in to vauderville
Al Duvall (US),
Singing Sadie(AUS),
Nigel Burch,
Candythief
MJ Hibbett

Then March 21st at the Luminaire we went a bit anticon-electronic with:
Bracken
SJ Esau
Gareth S Brown + DJ Buddy Peace

For our sun-soaked easter extravaganza on April 8th at the Windmill:
David Cronenberg's Wife
Morton Valence
The Bobby McGees
The Cedars
The Unfortunates
& Jonny Berliner

Hopping on a couple of weeks and we had a bit of collaboration with the Windmill on 22nd April, we helped promote fine folk from
Tom Brosseau(US)
Screamer on The Hill
Fireworks Night
Mendicant
& Lungs

Moving in to the summer time to May 23rd, our first outing at the Spitz
Charlie Parr(US)
Fireworks Night (they were great, we had em back see)
& The Dials

June?
back at the WIndmill on the 14th for:
Kaiser Cartel (US)
Sister (new single on Parlephone in Nov)
Bone-Box
and Stars of Aviation (the nicest band around).

July 11th back at the Luminaire
Cheese on Bread (US)
The Wave Pictures
David Cronenberg's Wife
Coley Park

And lastly, August 23rd at the Luminaire:
Adrian Crowley
Jonquil
Dear Euphoria(SWE)

Then potentially?
Who knows, perhaps nothing, possibly something. I might start promoting fictional nights, were the line-up I want are always available
Keep in touch though as lots of the bands we've put on over the years have been through this way

Enjoy rest of 2008 you.

Who I'd like to meet:

Many many good things that are 2008. Some are acts we believe should be much bigger then they are (musically, not height wise). Others are just random rantings of a musical nerd

Acts we like The Wave Pictures (one of my favourite Let's go baboon acts of 2007)
David Cronenberg's Wife (glorious new single, great live)
Maggie (another Hood affiliated top act, hopefully in London soon)
The Slow Life
Mechanical Bride (would like to have them on soon
The Strugglers (marvellous US act who should be far far bigger than they are - its mine and yours secret right?
Former Bullies (can't understand why they aren't bigger, fave live act for Let's go baboon of 2006 and still ones to watch
Blanket, Jonquil, MJ Hibbett, The Sliding Rule, etc etc

In a band - let me know and we'll see what we can do. Cheers

Hi Stuart. All very average in the former bullies camp! Thanks for your kind words on our new songs, this new three-piece thing is working a treat. It'd be great if you could sort something out for us in London town, i am pretty restricted mind, restricted like a school child, i work term time, speak soon.
