I was at the Princess Charlotte Leicester gig on that tour..and have the
single. I remember it was absolutely packed out. They next played the
Charlotte in March 95 only probably 70 people were there.. but they were 
(as
normal) brilliant. I had the honour of being the 'local crew' as I knew the
owner and was the stage manger at De Montfort Uni at the time. They looked
really pleased that there was someone there to help them hump in the gear
and were really nice and sorted me out some beers.. The BA's tour manager
(nice bloke named Barry) even asked if I wanted to work for them at the
Shepherds Bush Empire gig they were doing a couple of days later with an
offer of a laminate tour pass, a few quid, etc.... Couldn't make 
it...Doh!!!

Anyone else been an 'employee'??

Oh...talking of BA's guitarists, Max Noble served me a beer at a Radon
Daughters gig in Bristol!!!

Have a great weekend 
Roj

Blue Aeroplanes, A House & Sleeper. What a tour. Got the best gig in the 
NME
at the time. Saw it in Portsmouth on a Friday & London on the Saturday.

Also, I believe A House have some new stuff out.

Planespotter? Anyone remember the giveaway flexi disc with "Stranger" and
"Trouble, Tell Me I'm Alive"?
