My mate asked (about Apollo gig) and she got a face back from Jimi that said 'unlikely', I believe. πŸ˜”

Spence is alright but not sure he is the calibre required.

Was listening to 'The Charlatans' on vinyl last night. Absolutely tremendous. Their early singles, as you quite rightly say, corkers.

What a man, how kind of him. He really is a good sort, I have never seen him live, must change that at some point, 35 quid for Lightning Seeds (not a fan, mind) and Zutons, tremendous value.

I definitely heard on the night he was there but didn't see him, we were at front, virtual same spot as HOTS. Rianne is a real talent, got her 3 EP CD. She will be a superstar, said it from day one πŸ˜€

Quite right mate, she is brilliant. Saw her support The Lathums then solo at Deaf Institute and Gorilla, no surprise to see her flourishing. Good to hear you enjoyed the night πŸ‘
