Subject: Big Festive News

Hooray, we are pleased to announce (pending our usual fuck-ups, double-bookings, venue changes etc) that we are going to be playing our biggest gig to date on NEW YEARS EVE at the London Forum with the Rakes and Do Me Bad Things. Can't quite say at what point of the evening we will be on, or how much the regularly extortionate ticket prices will be, but hopefully it will be a little different to the usual New years, which are on the whole, lets face it...shit... but hey, skips is forfeiting his hootenanny celebrations, zac wont be in cork, and we will endeavour to arrange with Partyboy Shack to get a big gathering afterwards...Anyone have other arrangenments?

I demand to be helicoptered to Scotland immediately after we play so I can have a traditional Hogmanay (i.e. drinking Famous Grouse and vomiting from the ramparts of Edinburgh Castle.)

Oh now the Duckies have a dilemma.

We were mildly tempted by The Forum, before deciding it didn't actually look that good, being at the Forum and probably £20 or something. We were all set for our £10 entry & buffet at the Townhouse with live music from over 70's duo Ron & Jon, accompanied by our friend, 74-year-old female impersonator Melvina (I wish I was joking). Now you've gone and complicated things. Hmm...

You sound like the Eeyore of the band, not that that's an insult. I just read your post in his voice.
