This will be a great chance to see one of the UKs best punk ‘n’ roll bands around.
It’s their first time in Nottingham and we’re lucky enough to be able to host them at an intimate gig at kreepers.

Also Just added to the bill is A Sailors grave. Those of you who saw them last time know they’re not to be missed……

This is a pay on the door event and it’s a bargain at only £6 (Members £5). Doors open at 9:30pm and we go on till 2am.

Hope to see you all there….

I am married to a women, like Nick I guess, that does believe in an interventionary god. I too think I am right in that god does not "get involved" with humans. I really don't believe in pray either, but I still find myself praying my wife is right and I am wrong. I would love to be wrong... but I really don't think I am.

Yeah, I would've loved to see the Dolls & The Pistols again... Gotta admit: We went through the town (Lokeren) where the festival was, on our way back from London... But I just started working as soon as I set foot on Berlin ground, and have been pretty busy since, so... Well, I read the Pistols will be playing in London in September...

Hi and best wishes from Fruits de Mer Records, a very-small-but-almost-perfectly-formed new psych/acid folk label.

Keep checking out our site for old and new videos, all the latest on our first release (The Small Faces' 'Ogden's Nut Gone Flake' by the brilliant Schizo Fun Addict - out now as a very limited coloured vinyl pressing, just 300 copies worldwide)

PLUS early news on our next two projects: Mellow Candle's Alison O'Donnell - with new versions of classic Nico and Nick Drake songs ('Frozen Warnings' + 'Day is Done')...and Spanish neo-psych band 'Stay' - covering tracks by TGraham Nash ('Chicago') and Strawberry Alarm Clock ('Rainy Day, Mushroom Pillow').

Again, both releases will be very limited, colour vinyl issues (Fruits de Mer only does vinyl!).

www. myspace. com/fdmer2 - views, reviews (even orders!) from you and your friends all greatly appreciated.
