Following the decision not to visit London for a few months, or at least till Sound City is out of the way, S22 will play the following locations:

Somerset (somewhere near Glastonbury), Chester (Scotts' home town), Leeds and possibly Lucas' home town Huddersfield for nostalgia. Meanwhile, the band are planning a trip to Brittany, Northern France for the beginning of Autumn. Toby is due to spend 6 weeks in Mexico starting on July 6th, and Mark is on holiday right now for 2 weeks. The band move in together for the summer on May 17th.

LONDON

S22 are due to visit London this summer following the visit of a strange Angel connected to former Take That star Gary Barlow.

The band are still without a manager but feel the need for one now more than ever, especially with October's Radio One FM Sound City looming on the horizon. The band hope to enlist a manager before late June, when they are expected to travel to London.

THE FISH QUAY FESTIVAL
Posted: May 29 1998 1800-BST

The band played probably their best ever set in front of a full 300-strong crowd at last weekend's festival in North Shields.

Playing on the Dolphin Stage directly after the crowd-pleasing "Wild Cats of Kilkenny", S22 managed to win over the initially hostile crowd with a set comprising: Dissociation, '76, 3 hours to Sunrise, Freedom is Free, Down the Light and Worker. The whole gig will soon be available on video to order.

NORTH OF LONDON II
Posted: May 29 1998 1830-BST

North of London II, the follow up to 1997's North of London compilation CD, will be launched in Late June/early July. Featuring S22's "'76", the longest and main track on the double-CD, the album will feature more local artists from Tyneside and Wearside than last year's effort. The launch gig will be held late June.
