The Co-operative’s British Music Experience live show on February 25th, 2012 at the 02 in North Greenwich London will feature Roland Gift from Fine Young Cannibals.  Special guests include Jack Hues from Wang Chung and Green Gartisde (along with Rhodri).

The promotional material says “The Perfect Way” will be among the tunes played, but I am told this is not the case. March into spring for other gigs at UK venues that have not been announced, but are being worked on.  Summer festivals are also planned. Stay tuned for more info.

Thanks for helping us with the song title, Rhodri!

PS- The graphic I found online is a dog and a cat with a green background. Seamed fitting. Too cutesy?
