UPDATE: monsteresandcritics.com1 say
Brown's tour will include dates at large academies as well as smaller venues, such as Folkestone Leas Cliff Hall which will provide the perfect opportunity for fans to see Brown in a smaller, more intimate venue
Just popping that in as an update so you know I didn't copy and paste all the dates from them... Get tickets here, when they go on sale. That doesn't earn the site any money still, it's just force of habit linking to them...
This is part of my site The 'Gerald that I set up in a fury of excitement when I first came here sometime in 2004. I'd been a frequent visitor for a while before that but I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get nowadays. The site was updated more frequently with a calendar of events + voting for best venues + things, + I know it was a useful reference for those who were moving here. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though just to Hythe) it doesn't get as much attention as it used to. Ironic really as The town is now becoming the exciting place we knew it was just about to. My name is not Gerald by the way, this comes from a fake newspaper in an episode of Brasseye or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local newspaper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are great aren't they? Do get in touch if you have anything to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on the twitter.
