Nothing can stop us now ...
Karen and I were big St Etienne fans when at college ... in fact there is a now notorious incident in the Somewhere back catalogue where we once drove 100 miles down the wrong side of a loch so happily were we singing along to one of their albums ... tonight we get to meet them in person!
Sadly if you haven't already bought a ticket the event has sold out, if you do have a ticket make sure to be there by 8.45 as there are no late entries ...
