Friday 28 March brings us the third monthly showcase brought to you by Run For Your Life. Headlining will be the Too Many Cooks Arkestra, who's kitchen staff include all your favourite local music protagonists. Boasting membership that exceeds the population of South Africa, their improv set is nothing short of ethereal and chaotic. Also playing are You And Bloom, a 'tribal/percussive dual drum attack, with edited improvised ambient/soundscape laptop accompaniment' - tasty! Finally, Lady & The Lost Boys open the night, who probably boast the sweetest female vocals this side of a Blondie greatest hits record. Tickets available now for a mere £6!

is it true
that Too Many Cooks are in fact playing in the middle of the floor?
I really really want to make it down, my amp is still knackered though (luckily i have a couple of spares) maybe if i can raise some money for petrol somehow...
yes
it is. i'm sure there would be a spare amp i know matt and al are coming and could lend yr sommmin.
it's more the petrol cost that's the prob
bit short of dosh at the mo... :-(
you
can get £25 from the council. but you'll have to split it with the rest of the band...
that's about 7p each then? :-p
I really want to come down though, be good to see people, not seen you southerners since I moved!
thats like
2 quid each. i'd happily put that towards nick. yeaaaah!
also
Wild Dogs In Winter are playing!
