Tennent's Lager regrets to announce that Triptych's scheduled Renfrew Ferry shows on April 27 and April 28 have had to be relocated due to unforeseen problems with the venue. Triptych and Tennent's Lager apologise for any inconvenience this will cause.

The Renfrew Ferry Triptych shows on April 29th (Bella
Union) April 30th (Prince Buster / Jerry Dammers) and May 1st (Candi Staton) are unaffected, and will remain at the Ferry.

The affected Triptych shows are as follows:

Wednesday April 27th: The Earlies, Sam Prekop, Archer
Prewitt, Micah P Hinson: was scheduled for the Renfrew
Ferry, will now take place at Queen Margaret Union. Doors will be at 8.30pm

Thursday April 28th: The Fall and Uncle John and
Whitelock: was scheduled for the Renfrew Ferry, will now take place at Queen Margaret Union. Doors will be at 8.30pm.

On a brighter note, this means that there are now extra tickets available for the Fall! Yay! You can get them on the door at the QMU. Tickets for the Earlies bill tomorrow will also be available on the door.

Free bus services will be available from the Renfrew Ferry to the QMU on the two affected nights, which are, to reiterate: April 27 (The Earlies) and April 28 (The Fall).

I it was me ... Candi Staton & Herbie Hancock would be heading up my list ... American-classics-who-rarely-tour.

'You Got the Love' is one of my all-time favourite tracks.

Oh you're all very liberal aren't you? Let the ginger babies be born? As long as they don't grow up and move in next to you. Walking down the street, tripping over their empty bottles of sunblock!

Although i do think that the sense of achievement, entertainment value and subsequant notoriety should be enough of an incentive

Ok, but you must realise stunts like this in Glasgow can go 1 of 2 ways and at this stage in my life its a big risk!

But you've got a deal...i would've done it for the pen.

:p

Well i did go see Vitalic - Beyer - Dahlback - Mandy - Magda & Slacknoise.

Vitalic was great but there seems to be something wrong with Pressure as a night. A lot of people are feeling the same. The soundsystem is being horribly underused, Dahlback was complaining throughout his entire set supposedly. And the place seemed to empty after Vitalic had finished. It takes so much away from a set if the room is empty. Couldn't get into Magda although she was playing some great stuff.

The rest of the night i spent watching M*A*N*D*Y thinking it was Jeaper Dahlback! Nutty great tunes again but poor use of the soundsystem!
