That is up there with some of the finest album covers of all time. It's not so much that it's a cat-o-naut but more the look on the feline's face. Totally concentrated and dedicated to the job.

Here are some tour dates:

15/6 - Paris, Nouveau Casino
13/7 - Glasgow, King Tut's Wah Wah Hut
14/7 - Manchester, The Ruby Lounge
27/7 - London, Village Underground
