Redpoint album launch / gig
Posted: Mon Jul 03, 2006 5:21 pm
I hate to do blatant plugging of our stuff, but some of you might fancy this...
We've hired the Kelvedon Hatch 'Secret' Nuclear Bunker for an album launch party on the 16th of September. The place itself is stunning and a perfect match for the slightly chilly themes of our album. We visited there a little while back and it had a quite a profound effect on us.
It's gonna be a fiver per person - pay on the day. No profit, that's purely the owner's fee (we're paying more to rent the place).
Plan is to arrive there at around 6-7pm (when The Public have been kicked out), then everyone can take the tour at their own pace while we set up.
Everyone will be pretty much free to wander around, but we'll aim to kick things off at 8. We'll be doing the music and visuals in a couple of rooms on the middle floor (it'll be obvious where we are as everyone does the tour).
Gotta stress - this is pretty much a listening party for the album. We'll do as much live stuff as we can, though, depending on rehearsal time. I'm currently working my way through the tracks, figuring out which bits we can play and which parts to leave sequenced. Andy is hard at work on the visuals.
I reckon it'll go on for just over an hour or so and, after, there'll be plenty of time for chat/more drinks.
We thought it was a good idea to finish fairly early, 'cos it's such an out-of-the-way place...
So - PM me if you're interested. If anyone's travelling from around the country, there'll be options for lifts/crash-space. Just let us know. We're allowed to invite about 30 people, so places are somewhat limited and we'll be looking for definite confirmations sooner rather than later.
Like I say, it's an astonishing place with a unique atmosphere - well worth a fiver, even without the music.

There should be some reasonable accomodation nearby. I'll see if I can find anything suitable.
Looks like the goo on "The Fountain" website
