@willsergeant.com hi Will, is there a support band or anything for your Leeds gig next week ? Just trying to plan the journey to/from Hull, now they've changed the door times !

Not sure if Bradford was classed as a 'warm up' so no idea if that's an issue...and maybe depends which TicketBastards are involved I suppose too

I never liked MP at the time...again for said reason. But now I fucking love them. Some years back I heard The National Health album and realized there was sooo much more going on

Well, yeah I use holidays strategically (thankfully cos it's a cycle I know my days off for the entire year) and as I don't start until 10am I often can get a hotel and stay over and come back on the train and head straight in

It works out better in the long run. Not restricted by the same days (i.e. weekends where everything costs 5 times as such just coz it's a fucking Friday/ Saturday). Wouldn't be able to doa. Fraction of what I do.
I mean, I'm happy to do stuff on work nights but it's not always logistical

My days off change every week (in an 8 week cycle) and largely having to travel a lot for them, all takes strategic planning !!

...well, I've done 11 this year so far...and have at least another 24+ booked in already

Birmingham for Of Monsters and Men next week, then Peter Capaldi + The Bunnymen both in Leeds the following week.
I worked out that I did 76 gigs+plays last year. Works out at approx 1 every 5 days over the year. Except it doesn't work like that, does it ? Nothing for weeks and then 6 in 2 days !
