Hey, old profile followers; don't forget about this Friday's gig!

this flyer just turned up via The Odd Numbers , was such a great night, but unfortunately derailed the bands career due to the drummer having accident outside after the show (messing about on a quad bike or something i believe), which meant cancelling the rest of the tour & the John Peel session there were about to record! + the drummer having to stay in hospital in the UK for a long time! terrible end to a great night! ..still a top band though!
