I’ll be playing at CIRCUS in Liverpool on Saturday 29th November 2008. I’ll update with full details soon.

In the mean time you can join the facebook Event group here.

It’s going to be a very special night!

Circus is held monthly at Barfly, Seel Street, Liverpool. www.circusclub.co.uk

A new night is starting in Liverpool shortly with none other than DFA’s ‘Mock & Toof‘ a pair of Producers who’s music I have supported in a previous Podcast. This is a great booking for the city and a great way to bounce back after the sad closure of Geisha.

The line up is as follows:

• MOCK & TOOF (DFA RECORDS, TINY STICKS)
• MELODIE DU KRONK
• FRIDAY’S GHOST
• DIRTY DAMO (CHIBUKU SHAKE SHAKE)
• DASH (CHIBUKU SHAKE SHAKE, SUPERFLY)
• SCOTT LEWIS (CIRCUS)
• GENERAL JIMMY (PLASTIC SOUP)
• CAN’T MIX WON’T MIX SHOULDN’T MIX DON’T MIX
• PAUL OUTLAR
• JAZZBO

This is all taking place at The Magnet, Hardman Street on Friday 7th November 2008.

10PM-6AM / £7

I don’t know about you but I feel as if the mixes have been in great form over the past couple of months. Hitting the back of the net with all the grace and panache as the mighty Fernando Torres.

Long may it continue!
