who are they supporting at Southampton Uni?

I assume its a support slot as theyre playing the joiners 2 weeks later.


Wow, that's a long tour

and not in Devon, either.


When do these go on sale?

And how come they're playing the Forum and the ICA?


Long Blondes dates would be as support

Haven't checked to be double sure, but I know the London Forum gig has been advertised as just The Long Blondes for a while. So hardly a lot of fun to pay more than necessary for those initial gigs only to have to go in at 8pm, stand around on an empty floor, and have the chatter of people at the bar drown out the sound of the band...


Used to be great

but not too sure i care about them since they lost the drummer and porno bassist


^

agreed. their new stuff doesn't seem to be a patch on 'rounds', 'darlin'' and 'my favourite hat'.

Plus the old bassist is an absolute legend. pointless fact - he hates travelling on boats...
