Enjoyed a nice gig last night(01/06/05) performing at a cutting edge art/fashion/music/video night at Foundation in Newcastle. The 1st June 2005 saw entertainment including an art show, a fahsion show, various short films, a live Audio/Visual piece, a live music artist, two live video teams and DJ spots filled by 6 local clubnights, and a record label. We hung 4 screens, played the short films, did live camera to screen for the fashion show and provided live visuals for 2 hours with Keith and Elliot from Preamptive. Upstairs I believe had a night of live bands and DJ's. The night ran from 7pm -2pm and was quite simplying all manner of tastes and likes were catered for.

We now perform each Friday night at The Stage Door in Newcastle for clubnight 'Hold it Down'. A night with a unique musical line up which has already starred Blackbeard, The Unabombers, Paul Murphy, Max Sedgley and Bugz in the Attic.
