Re: Xmas gig HORROR!

Well I'm going to see The Fall. My first love. They're as good now as they
ever have been, and that's not just a knee-jerk reaction - they can and

And I can always see the Aeros next year. With The Fall you never know...
the gig might even be cancelled!
I might be mad enough to try to fit in both....
