Spitfires return to blitz London
jkimmitt by James Kimmitt June 9th, 2001
Rock and roll's favourite illegitemate children the Starcrossed Spitfires return to London once more this week but it won't be with punk pals the Empty Vessels who have pulled out of the gig at White Hart in London E1 on Tuesday 12th June.

The band's guitarist Ivan 666 said: " I dunno who'll do it ... it could be Mokita if they're willing to a gig at such short notice."
He also speculated that the band's close friends Ex-Rental could take the slot if possible.

Overall, Ivan did not seem overly disapointed saying: "I think it's really good news actually. The night is ours, and so we can do whatever we want. And we are taking suggestions. Starcrossed Bingo ?!? The Matt Bellamy Darts Challenge ?? "

This, boys and girls, is one rock and roll show you really don't want to miss.
