Not enough takers I'm afraid... We could go with an extra 4 though, if anybody's interested.
I will keep the design anyway, may do something else with it and let you know.

Hope to see you all in 3 weeks :)

Anyone recall if the tickets came with the summer show?.. Cant find them if they did *whistle*
Hey Deeg, pretty sure they did dude - best get your house turned upside down and find 'em!

On another note, do we know who support is, this time?

EDIT : Google is your friend Ross, remember that. "Balaam and the Angel" apparently. Never heard of 'em, any one got any recommendations? Found em on Spotify, "Days of madness", I'm not taken on em so far...

Got a few Balaam albums from way back when, not my cuppa tea but she likes them, 'Sun Family' is a fare example of their style then but no idea on current material

Can anyone advise me? What time should I come to the venue to grab a good spot? I've got ticket for standing and I am very short. I couldn´t see nothing from the back.

Well, I've been to SBE for many times, not this time though. If you like a 1st row postition you should be
at the venue at least 1 hour before doors, better 1 and a half. The empire is a nice venue but not the
biggest. However there are a few places (close to the stairs down to the stage) at the backside with
a perfect view as well, even for non-giants.
Enjoy the gig :-)

edit: the backside places I mean are close to the PA upstairs, just in case ;-)

Wethersspoons in general ? The sausage and mash is passable, theres a reasonable selection of ales but their cocktails tend to be on the fruity side. It appears to be where the facepoke peeps are suggesting so swmbo wants to go there.

Same here, even back in Ye days. Never got how they got the goff tag… It's rather pop with a heavy metal-type singer…
Fundraiser. You know, it's like Hellraiser, but without the Cenobites, the blood and all that.
