Get this... headlined by Hell is For Heroes with some ex-symposium tykes and really starting to come into their own. The dis-adored, aldershotians Reuben with their cartoon-gouging take on Nirvana and all the best bits of Nu-metal. And Exeters finest band with a cello, who're one of our new bands of the year Tyler. Blimus, that's one helluva bill!
Here's the tour schedule care of the Reuben lads..

The Reuben lads do ask "we don’t really have anywhere to sleep in a lot of these towns and some of them are quite hardcore, so if you know of a well cheap travel inn near you or you’ve got a floor going spare, then drop us a line at reuben@badmusic.net and we’ll hopefully not have to sleep in the van and get stolen. We’ll bring biscuits! "
And then Reuben take a few weeks off before going on their Drownedinsound (that'll be us then!) January tour in promotion of their next single 'Let's Stop Hangin Around'. More details to come...
