Me and Trev will be dj'ing on the 17th so it should be a laugh especially as it runs to 4am! There will be a free Pains show the night before on the 16th at The Old Blue Last where they will be supporting Comet gain (if they turn up). It's a twee as fuck night and some sort of ticketing will be in place for reserved entry. More details over at . |

Finally got my (and yours Trev) tickets for the show on the 18th. That means I am at the 16th, 17th & 18th. Apart from the usual suspects any other SXP'ers heading for one of these dates? I will have to give up on the other gigs - was going to go to Colchester but no way of getting home from that one! |
