“We were going to wait and launch our London site last after setting up local websites and gig nights all around the UK first so as to take the whole country to London with us, but after we met and got in contact with Alex Machorton (the new London Editor) we decided we couldn’t wait. So far we have done a good job of promoting music around the country without really touching London but its getting to the stage now were we have to have a higher presence down here in order to make a bigger impact. Go to the gig on the 3rd – its going to be rocking.”
