Re: Xmas gig HORROR!

["Nick Walters" <nickw@bl...co.uk>]

Now if the Jazz Butcher was doing a gig in Bristol around Xmas time can you
imagine the joy?

Robyn Hitchcock!
The Jazz Butcher!
Blue Aeroplanes!
The Fall!

(And if they were all on the same nite, imagine the horror!)

And why stop there?

It's Immaterial!
The Blue Nile!
Black!
Aztec Camera!

Fuck, I'm old.
