Well seeing as you asked wink No gigs at the moment. The last one we did was for the bookfair in Bolton organised by Manchester SolFed in November. We've had a break recently as the band members have jobs, kids, life, etc to deal with. We've done two self released CDs though. Our songs get played on 'Under the pavement', a community radio station in Manchester. We do a cracking version of 'The World Turned Upside Down' as well as our own stuff. Two of us are members of SolFed and the other two are sympathetic.

I've got it on vinyl, but who's got a record player? (Not me sad ). Actually, I'd be a lot more sad if I had the technology to listen to my John Cale albums. wink

But c'mon revol, you've got much lamer indie hair than me - a hoxton fin PLUS an ironic mini-mullet. And in denial about it. Very little sadder than that...
