Metamatic Forums John Foxx John Foxx And The Maths Interplay tour 2011

lol, that's a very positive upside! :):)

Ordered tickets for both London shows.

ROLL ON OCTOBER!!!

Just bought my ticket for Glasgow. Now need to arrange a shift swap when I go back to work on Monday.

Yesterday on twitter, Steve announced the wonderful Xeno & Oaklander as support for two of the Interplay shows - London (27 October) Holmfirth (nr Sheffield) on the 28th.

This New York retro dark-wave electronic duo are among my favourite contemporary bands. Their album Sentinelle is brilliant, and there's talk of a new release later this year

Here's a clip Benge posted on his blog after The Maths went to a recent gig at The Lexington

Cheers for posting this Martin, you've just had me spend the last hour listening to lots of tracks from Sentinelle on youtube, lovely stuff, may have to get this album, wish they were supporting at Glasgow.

So why no Brighton date? John & Louis brought nearly all their other tours to Brighton, and they were well attended - even the cinema screening of Tiny Colour Movies. Are we supposed to just hike up to London to see him?
I'm afaid that would probably cost about £60 each,
bit too skint to fork out that kind of money on a gig
Shame.

Tickets for both London* nights - see some of you there!

(*should be back to normal by then...honest)

the famous old east end 'Blitz' spirit Garry, and I'm expecting reports of Steve Strange look-a-likes on the streets equipped with brooms and dustpans.

How come there are two London Interplay nights scheduled, is it a small venue? or is the show in two parts? - that's some intermission...

Holmfirth may technically be near Sheffield but it really is out in the sticks. It's a small town a few miles south of Huddersfield, most famous as the setting of the long-running sitcom "Last Of The Summer Wine". The problem is public transport there is poor to non-existent in the evening, so if (like me) you don't drive, you've no way of getting back home after the gig. Thus - even though it's around 20 miles from my home - it's a non-starter for me.

Why on earth couldn't they have found a venue in Sheffield or Leeds instead?
