On Friday night, the idea I had to put on a gig with a secret lineup playing all new material and no pre-release tickets, No Advance, in Block T came to pass.
On the night, the surprises were sets from Fight Like Apes, White Collar Boy and Bantum (plus a bit of a Prince special closing set). Thanks to Block T and all involved for making it happen – I may just do it again soon…
