They played on Sunday, the 8th (I think), and as I hadn't heard of
them, I didn't go. D'oh! I'll know better next time.

This is what I'm looking for, people with a real love of music who
can point me in the right direction of the clubs that surely must exist
somewhere beyond the scope of my AJ tracking abilities.
<Where's the Irish acid jazz posse?>
Much like the lost city of gold, I can't find it. I've got a few
more clubs to cross off my list, so the search continues.
While I'm on, anyone familiar with 100% Dynamite or heard Soul Jazz
records: Philadelphia Roots? A little off topic, but It seems like it could
be a decent night out, any views?
