Ginger is playing at Riffs in Blackpool again on January 20th.
Support comes from The God Damn Whores, Robochrist and maybe one more tbc.

Anybody that came to Riffs last time will tell you it was an awesome night.

Also , with the gig being 'out of season' , accomodation is in abundance and really cheap! See www.riffslive.co.uk for a list of B and B's directly opposite the venue.

Tickets for Ginger are available on-line at www.wegottickets.com priced at £12.

Can't wait, see you there. Oh, and CJ rocked last night!! :D

Anybody looking to buy tickets on-line will have seen that all the Ginger tickets have gone. Don't panic tho! We have made some more available. They should show on the site soon, tho it may take a couple of days due to the time of year (today is NYE).

The site to go to is www.wegottickets.com

As I said in the above thread, tickets are going very fast.

Cheers, and all the best for 2007!

My God. How good was that? I haven't enjoyed myself so much at a gig for ages. I met Zo and Mr Dingwall, great to meet you guys.

All the bands that played were superb, Pretend Girlfriend were very good.
The God Damned Whores were fantastic as ever. Apparently Jon had a bit of a chest infection (aww!) but still sang his heart out.
Robochrist is bonkers, but sooo much fun, short-ish set but hell I couldn't stop smiling.
Ginger, well what can I say about Ginger? Happy, interactive, fun, funny! The man is a genius, why he's not made it huge is beyond me. Played some newies (and yes I really did have the CD, got it signed by Jase, Denzel & Jon, couldn't get Gingers apparently he left to see his lady friend!), played some SG5, all spot on and excellently performed, as you would expect!

Can't wait to go there again, the folk at Riffs are superbly friendly and should be congratulated for brining the mighty Ginger to Blackpool. Cheers!

It was a cracker, wasn't it?

Wasn't too sure about the first couple of bands, but Robochrist was mental (In a good way!!).

Ginger was spot on - good mix of songs, good bit of banter. And who was on drums? That guy was awesome!

For personal reasons, I've not been out and about for about six months now, so that was an excellent reintroduction!!

I am led to believe, though, that I insisted on showing Jon Poole my breasts after the show - I can only apologise!! :)

hows this for good luck we rung up a hotel off the RIFFS website homepage and left our name and pre booked 2 double rooms but when we turned up at 5 pm the owner of the hotel told us his roof had blown off in the week and cus we hadn`t left a number he couldn`t get back to us so we wandered up the street a bit and stopped at a hotel right opposite the venue and when we went inside they said they had 2 rooms left so as we were filling in the regestration forms who should come knocking on the door with 2 spar bags full of goodies but GINGER (wot a result) wot an awesome start to the night. i can`t remember much after that through the vodka and lager we consumed but it woz a cool gig and a great venue also recieved YONI and HOWLING WILLIES "world of filth" that morning so it turned out to be an amazing saturday.
