Here comes 2007... and here comes everyone

You won't, of course, have a new diary until Christmas Day, but you might want to note down the Maximo Park February 2007 dates:

20th - Newcastle Stage 2
21st - London Astoria

More important than the shining forehead of Paul Smith is the support, coming from !!! (that's Chk Chk Chk to you, Google.)

Also heading out that month will be The Rapture, but they've got a few more dates lined up:

2nd February Manchester, Academy
28th - London, Astoria
3rd March Dublin, Tripod
4th - Glasgow, ABC
5th - Leeds, Met University
7th - Bristol, Academy
8th - Portsmouth, Pyramid
9th - Coventry, Coliseum
10th - Middlesbrough, Empire

If you prefer the Indigo-Girl-lost-backstage-at-a-Jay-Z gig stylings of the current version of Nelly Furtado, she's coming in February, too:

16th February - Manchester Evening News Arena
17th - Glasgow Clyde Auditorium
20th - Birmingham NEC
21st - London Hammersmith Apollo

And, bumping into Nelly in the arrivals hall will be Wolfmother, who, yes, are also going to discover the true meaning of "3am at a motorway service station in a British winter" this February:
