We are Shirley - December Edition

Shirley Shows

Bit quiet on the gig front this month as Neil is off on another of his world trips and Jan is having a bit of work done. However, do not despair, early January sees us return to the Zodiac, this time headlining after our successful last appearance. Tickets are £5 and available now so book early as we're expecting another sell-out. Drop us an email and we'll arrange getting tickets to you. Full line up to follow.

A Crowd Review of our Zodiac Gig

It took little time at all for the crowd to warm up. Soon the floor of the Zodiac was transformed into a sea of smiling faces. Participation was of the highest order. Clapping was, on the whole, delivered in time and with gusto (many had obviously been practicing at home - don't think we don't notice these things!) It would be apt here to mention the refreshing consideration of Shirley fans. Shortly after the opening of 'Outlaw' tall Andy was seen to retreat to the back, allowing followers of a more diminuitive stature a better view. Highlights included the frantic scramble when Neil tossed his sticks into the audience with gay abandon. A pivotal moment was 'Shanghai My Heart' which brought a hitherto cool looking couple to the point of smiling lovingly at each other against a backdrop of swaying lighters - touching. No review would be complete without a little criticism. It was noticed that not everyone was singing along, so we'll be issuing some free CDs at the next gig to rectify this serious matter. Sincere thanks to all who supported us on that magical night. You earned us our headline slot, which we're relishing. Rumour has it we'll be unveiling a new song on the night
