Just seen their statement on the site:

In summary … if anyone out there thinks that we as a band are homophobic, racist, facist or anything of the sort and feel this is a positive ,the message is ,stay away from us

Fucking good on them!!! Shame more people don't say the same...
Did someone say "Wonky"?

I know it's a few days away yet, but where's the best place near the Roundhouse for a pre-gig beer? :smt030

The legendary Dingwalls is near by. If the sun is out, nice to sit outside by the canal but Camden is gifted with loads of pubs if you walk into town a bit.

Just got back to hotel after opening night in Exeter!

No set list spoilers except to say great mixture of newbies and some old favs!

First night roughness evident at times though seeing as due to Jaz's laryngitis the gig nearly didn't happen, he recovered well to give his usual animated performance.

Thoroughly enjoyable evening grappling with the barrier in a very tight and compact venue!

Next stop Bristol!

A bit like a certain other bands set list then? Obviously the way to go :wink:

Roll on next Monday, first time I've seen them since Raven died.
