Proposed legislation that could adversely affect live music in the UK: the government wish to consider it a Legal requirement in the new tax year to introduce laws insisting anyone applying or re-applying for an entertainment license must have a noise control device fitted to the venue. These devices have a tendency to cut a band off in mid-song - we always try and avoid playing venues which use them having fallen foul of them before. If you want to continue to hear live rock music the proper volume, please click here and sign the petition.

Last minute Colchester gig added to the list - this Saturday (17th January) at the Bull.
