Yes, yes... The radio silence has been deafening. But THE CRISIS is nothing if not a curious creature. And now we're back, bleary-eyed, stumbling out of hibernation, like a horny-back toad* navigating a yellow-brick road... |
So, what have we got lined up for you, rock fans?
Well, not one, but four confirmed public gigs to date (we have private performances in the diary, too, for celebs, royalty, that sort of thing. All hush, hush, so...)And first up is this Saturday 10th February, back at what's become some sort of pseudo residency - namely The Carlton Club in Prestwich, Manchester. Which we like to big up as just... Manchester. Man.Yes, we're aware that's plenty of notice. Don't mention it. But if for some perverse reason it's not giving you enough time to make arrangements for the kids, dogs, drugs etc., how about a merry sojourn to Llangollen - where 'Wales welcomes the world', no less. You can even get there by narrowboat. (Not sure they offer a return night-boat service, though, like in Cairo...) Anyway, the date for your diary is Saturday 23rd March, when we'll be rocking the historic rafters of The Hand Hotel. It's only been around for 400 years. Almost as long as our keyboardist...Staying in Wales, we then mosey on down to Lake Vyrnwy for a return to the Llanwddyn Community Centre - scene of a couple of Christmas gigs in recent years. Except this time we'll be doing it in the merry month of May - having learned our lesson about the bleak midwinter weather down there. It's snow joke...Oh, and there'll be no World Cup going on, then, either. (Insert eye-roll emoji here.) If you've never been, it's a top, rocking venue, so stick Saturday 18th May in your iCal, diary, back-of-your-hand, whatever.Finally, for now, we'll be popping back over the border in July, to reacquaint ourselves with The Plough in the very rocking Oswestry. And you're going to want to reserve this date... as it'll be the first outing for THE CRISIS EIGHTIES SHOW - a new performance we have planned for occasional gigs. The date to backcomb your hair by: Saturday 13th July.We'll doubtless be adding more dates as the year progresses, but for now you can check out all the intricate details of the above gigs on the - er - Gigs page of our website.

* And before you say it, yes, we know. That picture is of a frog, not a toad. Let alone a horny-back toad. If such a thing exists. But YOU try and find a decent image of a toad playing a guitar...

I will follow...
Just to be clear, we hate social media. It's the devil's work, the end of civilisation as we know it, and it exploits cats. But, hey. If you can't beat it... So follow us on Farcebook (sic) for all the very latest from Planet Crisis. Just don't click on any of the adverts.
