Currently using match sticks to keep my eyes open but I was fortunate to witness south London's finest at the Astoria last night. I'd read that they were jaded and tired after three weeks touring the states but they rocked. Big time. I haven't seen a band as tight for a long, long time. :notworthy:

They're currently on a (sold out) mini UK tour which will be followed by the second album in the autumn and their first major UK tour in October, which is already sold out. 8)

If you get the chance I would thoroughly recommend it as a top nite out. :von:

They did indeed rock. I'm in a similar lethargic state myself, having travelled from Peterborough (chez Loki :notworthy:) to Leeds at some ungodly hour of the morning to make it to work (almost) on time.

Gig review will follow when I've had a chance to listen to it again, not through an alcoholic fug. :innocent:

Ahhhh, so you were the vodka fuelled goth swinging his pants beside me whilst taping the gig on his digital camera? Allegedly. :innocent:

Now I remember ... 8)

You know that folks around here wouldn't tolerate the illegal recording of live performances! Shame on you!

I've been asked to look after another cat, ;D and it was trying escape at the time. :urff:

No probs. If MF has risen to his technological challenge you'll be able to have an action replay.

I need to find the USB cable for my camera first. I thought it was here in the office; it must be at home.

No problem, just give me a call before you come round. I'll need it back before 5PM (my time) as I need to copy some music onto my phone :P :innocent: :wink:
