In the meantime, a massive list of tour dates, one off gigs and all dayers, starting with a headline set at the "all-dayer for Roz."
Miss Black America are to headline the Name of the Rose all-dayer on Saturday 30th March, in aid of the Rosamund Dunham Trust. The venue is the Gt Welneatham Community Centre, near Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.
Roz Dunham was a schoolfriend of Seymour and Gish who committed suicide after battling with anorexia and depression for nearly 10 years. The Rosamund Dunham Trust was set up by her family to help young people who suffer from mental illnesses once they reach 18 and the state is no longer responsible for their wellbeing.
Also appearing on the bill will be Blue Gandhi, The Dawn Parade, Antihero, Slowdrowned, El Spoonio, The Exiles (acoustic), Aberration, Fat Panda, Seymour & Ellie and Greg MacDonald (solo), plus DJs. Doors are at 1.30pm, bar closes at 11.30pm.
Tickets are £10 and from Hardcore Hobbies, St Johns St, Bury St Edmunds, or by e-mailing nameoftherose2002@hotmail.com.
A special shuttle bus service will be running between Bury St Edmunds Town Centre (Ram Meadow Football Ground) leaving at: 1.00pm, 1.45pm, 2.30pm, 3.15pm, 6.30pm and returning from Gt Welneatham Community Centre at: 10.00pm, 10.30pm, 11.00pm, 11.30pm and midnight.
To reserve a space on the bus (£1), please e-mail Seymour MBA at nameofthecoach2002@hotmail.com. stating your name, how many tickets you want and what times you wish to travel at (there and/or back).
