A Secret In The Shape Of A Song at The Barbican

[Urpal]

The blackeyed susans have announced a gig at The Borderline in London on the Saturday after the ASITSOAS show at the barbi! Featuring special guests including Chris Abrahams & Mel Oxley. May I put in an early request for The Way That You See Me. Im not even sure Ill be going but a confirmation on that would hold some sway

Unless I misread it this would be the susans first ever UK gig. Under the circumstances just being there meets the request.

It's possible there could be quite a few extra special guests at the Borderline gig.

Given that the last time I was at the Borderline was for this, I'm feeling a tad envious just at the moment.

A Chris and Mel gig is very rare in this country and as far as I know it will be their first outside Australia. They did support for Susans in Sydney not so long ago and it was great to see them play. Anyone who frequents these forums is likely to be fairly well acquainted with the Blackeyed Susans but not so well with C&M. To have both on the same bill is a rare pleasure I would suggest. I imagine Chris will play with Susans as will I and most of the cast will be there in celebratory mood. Whether they're onstage or off I couldn't at this point predict.

Does anyone know when tickets might go on sale for this? I feel a weekend in London coming on!

They're already on sale at ticketweb & meanfiddler's online ticket service according to the band's facebook announcement.

a gig by chris's other other band 'roil' is also a rare thing- a few coming up soon including March 14 at Bennetts Lane.

a more traditional approach to experimentation (than the necks) from a standard jazz trio. Seriously good. Three generous examples of which are on the myspace site.

A glance at the itinerary tells me Chris is going to well limbered up for our shows.

Hi all,

I actually have a really good spare ticket for sale for this if anybody is interested (or knows someone who might be interested). My girlfriend has decided to come along, so I have bought 2 seats together a bit further back from this original seat, which is Row C, Seat 53. So if anybody fancies sitting in the front rows or knows someone who might like to, there's a ticket here for you. Let me know anyway.......
