Just been sent this, from the pens of Wolfie (RLYL & Expelaires) and John F Keenan (legendary Leeds promoter):

Expelaires, Penetration and (probably) Knife Edge

F Club 35th Anniversary - Oct 12th

I'm delighted to report that The Expelaires have confirmed as middle support and just awaiting final confirmation from Knife Edge for them to open the night.

These two acts are probably the most influential Leeds bands ever! Between them they spawned The Sisters of Mercy, Red Lorry Yellow Lorry, Music For Pleasure, The m*****n, and, even though not 'Gothic' in their own right, are at the very roots of the Worldwide Goth explosion that was to follow.

Awaiting details of the venue, but it's probably somewhere in West Yorkshire.

More info:

The venue is The Brudenell Social Club in Leeds.

The occasion is The 35th Anniversary of the founding of The 'F' Club.

The date is Friday 12th October 2012.

The line up is: PENETRATION / THE EXPELAIRES / KNIFE EDGE.

Tickets £10 advance from The Brudenell and online from Crash Records & Jumbo Records.

Very cool that there is a 35th Anniversary event for the F Club ... ...

What a pleasure to anyone who is able to go ...

OOOh, I've not seen Pauline for a couple of years now. Might be nice

Blimey, that is something!

Without the Expelaires there would have been no Craig or Ben - sounds like a historic night - shame that they haven't used one of he old F Club venues though.

Have just heard that Dave Whitaker of The Danse Society and Music for pleasure might be playing with the expelaires. Fantastic! Has anybody else heard anything about the Explelaires line up. Is Craig Adams playing maybe?

as i understand it, wolfie offered craig the gig but he was too busy with the mish to be able to commit.

not sure if that's still the case, but unless you hear otherwise i'd assume no craig
