Theres a group on face book apparenlty for ex phono ppl - something like i miss the phono. quite a few of the staff and regulars.
Theres even supposedly a reunion this w/e in Leeds

The gig is now confirmed and will take place @ The Metropolitan (old Poly) on Saturday 8th December. There is likely to be an after show party and DJ's till around 3am. More details when they are available such as tickets and where to get them and maybe a special "available only at the gig"...

Received reliable intel this morning that the March Violets will be playing a one off reunion gig in Leeds in Dec. More news once its confirmed.....

Is there a support band for the UK dates - if are they worth seeing ?

Info for people in the South Yorkshire area looking for tickets for the Manchester Sisters gig. Jack's Records on Division St. Sheffield has tickets at £20 + booking fee Booking fee for cash transactions is 50p per transaction, not per ticket.

News for those in the UK.

The boy Robochrist will be in session on Radio1 from 10pm tonight (Thus 2nd)

Consider yourself informed.

would have prefered Gangwar.......

Its true. Received confirmation from -bat(Whitby crew) and from sources close to the band.

Just back from St Vith - Very much a copy of Bex, I have to agree with all the reviews I've read from this years tour - this really does feel like Sisters by the numbers, well executed but just a standard performance(if a high one) no suprises, no new songs, nothing special - even the T-Shirt is ave...

at the w/e I heard from a reliable source that the good Dr was programmed up with a couple of new songs, but due to internal issues within the band they didn't get played at St Vith or Bex.
