Homelife gig - today - Hammersmith

[nickking]

Tonight, at Bush Hall, Uxbridge Road, W12 from 8pm, Homelife and Aidan Smith will be performing live. Tickets will be 6 UK pounds, the nearest tube is Shepherds Bush, and the telephone number is 0870 600 100.

Not sure if Graham will be attending, but it should be a good gig. Unfortunately, I've only just found out today (it's in today's London Metro newspaper), so if anybody attends, and wishes to submit a review, please do so!

Also, the new album is to be called "Guru Man And Hubcap Lady" and will be out via Ninja Tunes in August.

l8rs,

It was on http://www.808state.com/live/ in advance and I believe Graham was part of it.

Damn, should read that more often!

Ah well, hopefully they'll tour again during or after the album's release, as they were superb in Manchester's "D:Percussion" festival!

I'll definitely be going on that tour - September and October are looking pretty empty so far in terms of activities!

As for D:Percussion, I've found the following info:

"SOUL:UTION and EYES DOWN present

At The ROADHOUSE
MANCHESTER
11pm-4am

After the resounding success of our last Eyes Down Soul:ution colaboration we're getting together again to host the Official Ater Party for the D:Percussion festival in Manchester. Expect another evening of 21st Century Soul Music of all Tempos and Styles, this time with a few of our favourite guests from Eyes Down dropping by to play some records.

This is looking like being a proper laugh. Expect back to back and a couple of recods each bizniz all the way.

Please note that due to the extremely limited capacity of the Roadhouse, this is bound to be another road block session, so advance tickets are highly recomended!!

This is also going to be the last Eyes Down until our 4th Birthday in October."

D Percussion: Moonboots + Jason Boardman + Guest DJs

Aficionado takes over Canteena in the afternoon with residents Moonboots and Jason Boardman being joined by special guests for a (hopefully) hot and hazy session of Balearic finery, Kosmiche comedy, soft rock gems, soulful flavours, disco nuggets, rare groove and forgotten rave anthems."
