FEZ: Note to self/selves: potential upcoming acoustic gig was first mooted last day of Feb 2004. Gig: Fez Bar, March 25th. Always been told I was conceived in Fez. Also been told "'I' before 'E', except after 'C'". O aye.

Nothing to suggest there's even an opening, but we can always track how far this goes before it all comes tumbling. Or ends up with onstage jitters and renditions of songs like: She's a Riot; Big Girl's Blouse; Love is No Alibi; Dunce's; Crawl Babes; Ex's-Cassettes; Nothing Like Expectation. And perhaps a Smiths number?

POUR VOUS: Keep it quiet we might have lost some of our potential attractiveness to club-owners. The drinking crowd we once pulled in is no longer in town. This dawned on me today.
