has he moved west?

Brastislava, Brandenberg, the one I can't quite remember how it's spelt-burg have become Nantes, Cherbourg and Cliquot.
I was harsh on Beirut at first, but the first album's really good

does this clash

with your night Keef?

monpot @joe_totale | 15 Aug '07, 17:23 | X | Reply

whistles

yeah it will, but then so will 6 other nights! i was clinging on to the vague hope that no good bands whatsoever would play the friday, which was being a bit hopeful ;)

we should hopefully still get a good crowd in. we'll probably arrange the running order once some of the bigger gigs are announced!
