Viva Southampton

An update from the production office, on the first day of the tour….

For the last couple of days, we have decamped from our temporary London base, to Southampton, where tonight the band will play their first show of the UK Tour. Hello hello.

For the last couple of days, we have decamped from our temporary London base, to Southampton, where tonight the band will play their first show of the UK Tour. After a few initial lighting hiccups during the rehearsals, everything seems to be clicking into place.

The past few days have seen the band perform in some very strange situations. First off, in the Kentish Town Forum, for a Q Magazine-sponsored show, followed by the Regent Street Apple Store, and finally, in the control room of Battersea Power Station. More on that sometime soon, as i believe it was on the down-low. Despite someone twittering about it, and giving the whole thing away 🙂 Nice one.

So tonight’s show is sold out – if you’re around these parts, and trying to work out how to get in to the show, I’m going to pop up on here with cryptic details of how you can get your south-coast hands on a pair of tickets for the show… We might hide them around town, we might put a secret name on the guestlist and then drop hints, we might even hide details of a secret tunnel entrance into the show… Who knows.

Stay tuned for the details, in a few hours…

Neil.
