    •  She was really good, although I couldn't find anyone and couldn't get a stable phone signal inside, but I think that everyone had the same problem! Anyway, it was a very good idea and I still ended up getting drunk on Rum afterwards... heheh Hasta Luego chicos and chicas xxxx

       Was lovely family live gig. We got to the queue at 7pm sharp.... i text every number I had to say was out there. Hooked up with the ones that were.. about 7.30pm we were inside the main events room watching movie having spent some time checking out the back door outside bar area and trying to figure out whether there was a genuine banksy art work on the one of the walls or not lol ... erhm DLA are very important and these events are very important for they help such good causes. Placed got packed! every ticket sold out - however, there were a few people I helped get in last minute that had to wait until 9pm before they could be let in.
