Chris and fellow planes,
 
 I'm hoping to drive down from London but need to share petrol costs as 
it's now £1.37 a litre - anyone need a lift? 
 I can leave London late afternoon for anyone working.....please get back 
to me.

Hi All 


Been busting to post for ages. The newsgroup has been down for a few weeks 
but fortunately has now been restored. Thank you Steve!!

Right then...

The new album is only 2 weeks away. We got the white label test pressings 
back last week and it sounds fabulous. It was a very strange feeling 
hearing songs I've been involved in the recording of start with the sound 
of a needle dropping into the grooves of a real record. A personal first! 
...and a very moving moment too.

Just you wait until you see it in all it's 12" gatefold glory. It's so 
much better seeing a new album in a format that you can really get your 
hands around. A work of art indeed!

So on to the gig. Full confirmed line up...

Gerard Langley
John Langley
Rodney Allen
Max Noble
Angelo Bruschini
Gerard Starkey
Rita Lynch
Chris Sharp
Wojtek Dmsjdhfewfhw (sorry but I can be bothered to look up the spelling!)

Probably a guest appearance from Dave Chapman too.

The inclusion of Angelo (currently between tours for Massive Attack) means 
you can expect a few classic tracks which have been missing from the live 
set up for quite a while. You can probably guess which ones!! There are a 
few surprises in there too as usual including 2 or 3 personal favourites 
(one of which, speaking as a fan rather than a bass player, I've waited 19 
years to hear live)

Well I hope that's enough to whet your appetites for the launch gig at The 
Fleece on Friday 20th May (less than 2 weeks away). To be honest the 
ticket sales have been slow so far. I'm hoping this is partly down to the 
lack of a newsgroup for the last  6 weeks. It's a tenner in advance but 
£15 on the door so do yourselves a favour and get your tickets in now.

For anyone on facebook here's the event.
