:von: looks a bit like him in his later years. ;D That's as far as it goes.
The owner of the venue has a lot of contacts and has attracted some fairly big names so far.

Just about how unqualified are those rumours? Not that I will/can go myself, but it sounds interesting...a near meth thing?

very unqualified, tbh :|

i've been told specifically that the leamington gig means there will be no need for a warm up gig before the euro festivals.

and i've never heard mention of any additional dates, leeds or otherwise. conversations have only ever involved those 4 gigs...

not that stuff can't get added at a later date or even at the last minute, but i'd hate for people to miss out altogether because they're holding out for something that doesn't happen.

Nearly time for a roll call by the looks of it.
We're still missing a couple of non-regular posters.
A certain local lad springs to mind. Heaven help us all when he does find out. :innocent:

A Brighton date would obviously be perfect, but I'll settle for Leeds or London.
That would mean the live page would have to get updated AGAIN!!

If you're thinking of who I'm thinking of, he'll probably be down the woods with his shotgun. "Feckin' goffs!" BAM!

I'd imagine that it's just a case of playing a central location as they played north/south last year.

It's what Derek said. The show is just an excuse, not the real reason. :notworthy:
