UK TOUR STARTS TOMORROW! NEW INSTORES!!

Hello gang

Tomorrow we're going to be kicking off the City of Thieves tour in everyone's favourite liberal sea-side hotspots, Brighton. We've got a full new album of material to play to you, a full new live show and are officially 'nervous and excited'. I'm assured by someone in the know that it's good to be 'nervous and excited' and the day we aren't 'nervous and excited' any more, we should give up. So, to bolster our nervous excitement please come and bring along friends, family members and hanger ons to kick the tour off in style. Whether or not they like us, music or indeed leaving the house.

Today on this fine Wednesday 29/04/09 to celebrate the start of the proceedings we're going to be doing an acoustic set in AFFLECKS (3rd Floor Cafe) in Manchester at around half past 5. This has been moved back half an hour because there were lame workaholics complaining that 5 was too early. Now they have no excuse! Come along and show your face. Bring a smile and a pocketful of goodwill. There is a wonderful Facebook event for it HERE. It's probably a bit late to join that now but at least you can check in the confirmed guests there is no ghastly ex-girlfriends coming or anything like that.

As well as the Manchester instore, we've got a few others confirmed. We've been rehearsing it specially so we promise it's sounding wonderful, if slightly like a christian folk ensemble.
