Thursday we are playing at Sussex Uni for the freshers, this gig will also be a nice warmup for the main event on Friday.

Friday sees us at the Brighton Coalition playing with some of Brighton’s finest live bands – kicking off are Friday Night Hero followed by 4 or 5 magicians, Doll and the Kicks and then ourselves finishing the night off nicely.  Seriously, this is going to be a great night (and not just because we are there!) so come on down and have yourself a good time.

That’s right, drum-monkey Russell is back from his travels to exotic lands, many and wondrous.

Having just dropped in from the States with a Union Flag parachute on his back, Russell made an appearance at the Hare and Hounds gig on Saturday 24th, before being dragged on stage for an unplanned encore of Midnight Sun. Despite not having played for three months, he did us all proud.

Of course, Russell’s return also marks the end of Dan O’Driscoll’s spell with the band. We’d like to thank him for all his efforts! We’re sad to see him go, but he is already working with another band and we wish him the best of luck.
