sorry I forgot that bit - they're apparently at the Marquee pub, which is round the side of the castle mall and directly down the hill from the Archant building. I forget the road name as I'm local and know how to get there.

ps. why dint you tell us about this tour when you booked your own date mister??

Wow, I didn't hear a thing about this and what a delightfully random venue. I haven't seen any sort of promotion or advertising for this which is a little strange, do you have any idea who is promoting it?

Thanks for the heads up.

we have no idea who's behind this or how it came about (or even if it's really real). the tour is mentioned in the tigerbeat6 newsletter and the venue at planet mu's website. worth a look anyway, even if we all end up just going for a pint.

i really recommend checking this one out, even if its just for a pint. i really like sickboys stuff, its been descrided to me by diehard gabber fans as "Proper Gabber". i like it, its silly and fun and you get to watch a small quiet dutch guy called jurgen go apeshit which is always worth a couple of quid.

COOL!

I meant going for a pint if the gig's not on, as there's only a couple of days to go and still nobody has owned up to putting it on.

yeah, james and i were talking about this earlier. lets cross our fingers and hope so.

oh plus*

do we only have to have one beer?

Those elusive promoters!
The marquee is the one that often has goth events and other bands so I think it is feasible for it to be going ahead. It's just strange to see absolutely nothing about it anywhere. What time are you guys thinking of getting down there?

edit:

A minimum of one me thinks

hey I never said one beer, I said one pint. what you put in that pint glass is up to you. If the place is as goth as they say it'll have to be bats blood or something.

or lager and lime to keep the scurvy at bay.

don't they all drink snake bite and black at these sort of venues? probably from plastic pint glasses as well.

only if they're old enough to make the move up from cider in the churchyard.
