Contact us for tickets with hand made and band designed FREEBIES. See us engage in group therapy via the medium of bone shaking rock n roll #musicksky #metal

Sweet plastic gangster Jabba the hutt guarding a plethora of freebies that will come with tickets purchased direct from the band. The freebies are handmade stickers and badges including such iconic images as a guitar-playing tardigrade, a multicoloured image of Danny DeVito, and someone peeling back their scalp to reveal their brain. Collect the whole set.

Listening to this incredible album. The Wildhearts (Self titled, AKA The White Album) thinking about Scott Sorry. He brought so much to one of my favourite bands. I know he fought for a long time 🩷 Chris #vinylsky #vinyl #musicsky
