Thanks to all those who attended our ‘Escapologist Tour date’ at Rich Mix gig on Friday 13th May 2011. Due to the fact i was the 13th of May and a Friday we owe this excuse to the fact we had to restart the screening of Kazik and the Kommander’s Car 3 times – so apologies – the first was that wires were not in place so no sound was heard, the second was that the screen looked green and thethird time we were lucky the film finally was screened perfectly!
