[Imc-london-audio] Re: future indy shows on resonanace

[Planet Mail]

actualy no, i hadn't agreed to this.
but if you do every 3rd week that's cool too :)

some good ideas in here as well - though it strikes me that as with current 
situations
everyone would have to be flexible about moving around - because life is 
life and things
come  up - people are away (assume pen is away again next month etc etc) - 
anyway
just being realistic!

would be good to hear what pen thinks of this - we should have a get 
together as well
and chat together i reckon.

ciao,
dave
