[any excuse to quote the Pet Shop Boys :)]

...but this is a great big hearty jag. Hopefully you will forgive me.

Hawnay Troof is playing Luminaire tonight - first date of his UK tour. He's fucking INCREDIBLE. The energy and fun and ludicrous genius of the Beastie Boys, squeezed into one man, squeezed into a small pair of oldskool gym shorts. And PRE are supporting, and they're also brilliant [many of you know this already, as documented here - http://drownedinsound.com/articles/1640031 ]. And Ana da Silva from the Raincoats is opening the show. And Upset the Rhythm are djing.

Basically it's going to be phenomenal and I think lots of you should come. So that's that.
