AWOLNATION (20.45-22.00)
+ Arcane Roots (19.50-20.20) + Invaders (19.00-19.30)
Due to sudden illness, AWOLNATION are unable to perform tonight. Aaron Bruno is under doctor’s orders to rest in bed. It is with deep regret that AWOLNATION can’t perform as they were looking forward to play HMV Next Big Thing . Both AWOLNATION and The Garage regret the late notice, but it was unavoidable.

The show will be postponed, likely to be end of May. As soon as the date is confirmed ticket holders will be notified. Ticket holders can hold on to those tickets which will be valid for the postponed date. Anyone who turns up tonight will be admitted into the venue for free and still have valid tickets for the new date. Those seeking a refund should contact the ticket agent they purchased from.

On behalf of AWOLNATION, The Garage and HMV Next Big Thing we offer our sincerest apologies.
