@WestEndCovers @kitkatclubLDN Matthew Gent you were absolutely AMAZING one of the best performances I've ever seen (especially money makes the world go round)

@JBRAgent @callumshowells @kitkatclubLDN Oh my gosh apologies to #MatthewGent, you gave one of the best performances I've ever seen so you fully deserve the credit (also apols @callumshowells)

I don't believe anyone could play the EmCee better than @callumshowells did this afternoon at the @kitkatclubLDN, phenomenal performance.
