A nice selection of gigs this week as we manage to catch our breath after a mental few weeks of shows. Highlights of many are on our youtube page.
Its Banquet's Little Day Out on Tuesday as three bands special to us play a show at The Fighting Cocks, and on Sunday we return there for a sure to be sold out fund-raiser show from more of our buddies The Skints. In the interim, New Noise is back on Wednesday night, The History Of Apple Pie return to Kingston on Thursday and d&b producer / DJ Break is at Repeater on Friday.
A few more shows announced this week. Don't miss out... Join the Banquet Facebook the New Slang fan page, the Banquet's Big Day Out facebook and follow @banquetrecords on Twitter.
