ok guys. even though airports have re-opened - theres no way anyone can guarentee that massa and tommy will be able to make it here by saturday - they were due to fly yesterday, so were guessing that theres gonna be a backlog that needs to be cleared before they could get a flight.. so everyone involved has agreed it's best to POSTPONE this event... we're looking at a saturday early july for RE-SCHEDULE.

RAS DIGBY defenitely wants to hold on for MASSA, AND MASSA is MAD KEEN to play alongside the RAS... subsitution at this late stage just didn't feel right.

APOLOGIES FOR ANY INCONVINEINCE CAUSED.

of course tickets will be valid for the next event. if anyone needs a refund please go back to your point of purchase.

HOWEVER - me, TINY T plus friends, will be there at 'the copperfield' this saturday night anyhow - just lounging and spinning some selection - so feel free to join us for a slightly more laidback affair!
