Hmm - I think I might wait for a month or so to see if any other UK dates are announced before committing myself to a trip up to Leamington Spa.

A Brighton date would obviously be perfect, but I'll settle for Leeds or London.

Only decent gig I ever went to in Leamington was the House of Love at the "Royal" Spa Centre in 1990.

:lol: I remember that. ;D
It was the same night as Snuff at Bath Place. We saw The House of Love then onto Bath Place to see the start of Snuff. They were 99% better than The House Of Love as I remember. Happy days. ;D

Nice venue, good sound system (usually), but perhaps it was the backstage 'facilities' that influenced their decision to play here?
Good ol' Tammy...perhaps an a capella version of 'Stand By Your Man' for the 3rd encore would be appropriate :innocent:

...and of course the interior design by Llewelyn-Bowen must have only added to the appeal. ;D

@Weebs - Yes, the same old gripes. It's not 1984 anymore. Accept it. ;D

A strange choice of venue/town. Could it be the Crowley connection?
