If I was to be pernickety, I'd say the above should be separated into it's own section called "AUGUST 2015 - BAND" or something similar ?!
The Rochdale gig looks like it has changed from Touchsotones to the flying horse. As it seems like an age since we last saw Nick and he isn't coming to Yorkshire this time we thought we'd cross the border and go to Rochdale. Just rang the Flying horse and they said it's a free gig! I'll have to throw what we normally pay for tickets into the hat. Unfortunately no double rooms left for a sleepover. Hope we can get in if it's freebie.
Ah yeah that's all changed! Thanks for reminding me, Colin... have updated the master list, and all the FB photos, lists etc. Wish I could come but it's Squeeze in Glasgow that night (choices choices LOL)...
