BOTTLE ROCKET @ SLEAZYS R.I.P.

So that's it - bottle rocket has placed its CD-Rs in the decks of Nice N Sleazys for the final time. Five years (or near enough) is a ripe old age all told, and i'll no doubt get all reflective and post something more comprehensive about our demise in the coming days. In the meantime, I'll just extend my heartfelt thanks to anyone who ever came along and supported the night, especially those who shared nice words with us on Friday and especially those chanting 'wan more tune' at the end - from my point of view, it was a heartwarming way to say goodbye to something that's been a big part of my months for flipping ages.
