Benefit Gig this friday, My Sad Captains plus others, Finsbury Park
hello folks, I warned you I was gonna do this, I think this a is a reasonable time. A good friend and myself are putting on a gig at the Larrick, less than 10 minutes away from Finsbury Park train/tube, or next to Crouch Hill train if you prefer (N4 4AU).
This is primarily to raise funds for the social night of the refugee council in Brixton, which is where Sarah and I volunteer, and the night involves pool, an arts table, board games, music, some food, the occasional workshop (guitar, camera, that sort of thing) and a lot of chat (which i think is the most important thing, day to day english skills). We need money for rent, and we hand out food, take them to the seaside in the summer etc.
Regardless of the cause, the bands playing are great - My Sad Captains are brilliant - www.myspace.com/mysadcaptains - like an english pavement as a lazy description.
We Used To Make Things are a perfect summer band, bouncy and chirpy and so on - www.myspace.com/weusedtomakethings
and then there's Jess, a friend of ours with a lovely voice, singing alongside an acoustic. My lot aren't playing anymore :(
There will be a raffle too!
