Right, I've done it! Two tickets are booked for Snoo and I to see Wintersleep in London! :mrgreen: We arrive home from America on the morning of May 19th, and WS play in Camden that night. I may well fall asleep during the show! For £6 a ticket, I figured that if we really don't feel up to it, it's not the end of the world.

Amazing show at Macewan Hall on Saturday. The band blew the roof off the place, and the crowd was awesome. The buzz on this band is spreading very quickly. In a span of 5 months these guys went from playing a small 500-capacity club to selling over 1000 tickets for their gig at Mac Hall. During the show, Paul Murphy mentioned that it was the largest venue they've ever played in Calgary, and the entire band seemed genuinely surprised and humbled by by the crowd's enthusiasm. Great show.
