Not too much new, except that on Friday 23rd Feb two of my favourite local bands, No Through Road and Straight to Video, are playing at the Electric Light Hotel with Sub Audible Hum, who I’m not familiar with.

Meanwhile this week don’t forget about Damo Suzuki at the Rocket bar on Friday – this is not to be missed. On Saturday there is a choice of Macromantics at Rocket or The Evens at the urtext ballroom. I’m leaning towards the latter.
