Intimate London Gig for Funeral For A Friend

30th Sep 2008

Funeral For A Friend announce intimate 'Atticus DIY Show' at The Old Blue Last on Wednesday 1st October.

Welsh Rockers Funeral For A Friend have teamed up with Atticus Clothing on a special one off co-branded polo. To celebrate its launch the band will be performing a one off show at the Old Blue Last on the 1st of October in what will be the 5th of the Atticus DIY series.

Gig entry is free but here’s the catch – invites will only be sent to the bands MySpace, Facebook and Bebo friends and posted on the bands iLike page later this week. So youve got to be in it to win it. We will randomly select 70 replies across the board from those who get their replies in first (or in the case of iLike who post on the fan wall) and those lucky people will have their names added to the guest list on the door. There will be no +1s, so one entry per person. If you want to be in with a chance of getting into this ace gig make sure you’re a member of one or all of the above official groups/pages and watch out for an announcement in the coming days.

The band release ‘Memory And Humanity’, their eagerly anticipated fourth album, on Oct 13 2008 via their own label, Join Us Records. It will be preceded by the ‘Kicking And Screaming’ single on Sept 29.
