@imcharliecbrown @WedgewoodRooms @DanielleWadey Not a bad setlist if I say so myself! 😆

[Charlie Layton @CharlieHelden]

We have arrived @WedgewoodRooms Doors at 19:30.
Scare Taxi on 20:00 that’s who @DanielleWadey and I are playing with.
TWP at 21:00 if the pub is more alluring!

@JISMICWAND @DanielleWadey @WedgewoodRooms Great venue. Seen many a band there growing up and it’ll be nice to be back up on stage there. Make sure you get down early! 😁

Been having a sort out today. This was when my band ‘Librium’ played our 1st show. 2001. + we got to watch @thedarkness for free

[Danielle Wadey @DanielleWadey]

Got 40-odd songs to learn/re-learn and about 2 months to do it…yes! 😁

[Charlie Layton @CharlieHelden]

@prescottdp @weddingpresent @DanielleWadey No plans right now, but then there are no tour dates booked. Would never say never though! 😃

[Charlie Layton @CharlieHelden]

Nice to have the final @weddingpresent Marc Riley sessions we played on (tracks 1-4 😄) released today. @DanielleWadey https://t.co/XB3EOJj6uG

[Danielle Wadey @DanielleWadey]

Big thanks to everyone who came down to the Albert last night - it was so much fun! Sorry, I don’t know who took this photo but it’s a great shot, cheers 😁 More shows to come… @ScareTaxi @CharlieHelden https://t.co/qRXyx1PWk7

[Danielle Wadey @DanielleWadey]

If you’re at a loose end in Brighton tonight, come watch the brilliant @ScareTaxi tonight! Myself and @CharlieHelden are plumping them up to a four-piece. Come find us at the Prince Albert from 19:30!

[Charlie Layton @CharlieHelden]

@HollywoodBlue4 @DanielleWadey Cheers, Andy! Hope you’re all good 🙌

[Charlie Layton @CharlieHelden]

@hotchiefaction @imcharliecbrown @DanielleWadey Ohh what venue? Image in the background not ringing any bells.

[Charlie Layton @CharlieHelden]

@imcharliecbrown @DanielleWadey Thanks, Charlie 😂 What was going on there then!! 🤪

[Charlie Layton @CharlieHelden]

@stevePr03886614 @DanielleWadey @ScareTaxi How far north are we talking Steve? 😃 But yes, we‘d love to get some more shows in away from the South Coast.

[Charlie Layton @CharlieHelden]

@DanielleWadey and I will be playing together for the 1st time in 6 years in @ScareTaxi supporting The De Rellas this coming Friday May 2nd at the Prince Albert in Brighton. Just saying in case you fancy it: https://t.co/POHJmpPEeP

[Charlie Layton @CharlieHelden]

@MarcSettle Wow….well next time, do just that!! 😄

[Charlie Layton @CharlieHelden]

Getting back to playing. Opened up a snare drum case and found these. The nice printed @weddingpresent setlist and the @Art_Brut_ one written on a plate from the dressing room!

[Charlie Layton @CharlieHelden]

@gdpreston @Art_Brut_ Good choices! Axl Rose is loads of fun to play live. (They all are tbh!!)

[Charlie Layton @CharlieHelden]

New / old @Art_Brut_ album out today.
Here’s the physical version but also available on all the streaming platforms.
Turn it up, LOUD!

Favourite track?
