If you’re going to Patrick Wolf’s gig at the Classic Grand get yourself round to Pin Ups afterwards as we have an exclusive playback of the great man's new album “The Bachelor” from 11pm until midnight in the FUCKING fdfghjkKITCHEn (including T-shirts and other random goodies to giveaway ).

In addition to the Pin Ups DJs playing "new and classic indie, punk, soul & eelctropop" across 2 rooms there will also be Guest DJ slots from Pin Ups regulars Natalie & Martin and William of www.rokbun.com - and playing live we have Myshkin ( www.myspace.com/myshkinmusic ) and Transfer Audio ( www.myspace.com/transferaudio ).

Each month all of us Pin Ups chaps are absolutely delighted to see people coming back for more action and we hope this month will be another jam packed delight. Pictures of our most recent 2 events (April’s Pin Ups and our Morrissey Afterparty) are now in the gallery at www.pinup-nights.co.uk so go and have a look at all the hilarity that’s been happening, including the new craze of Pin Ups tattoos - all the kids want them. As our posters say, they’re “fun and regret-free in the morning“!!

And of course if you haven't seen them before in the gallery there's also lots of pictures from Patrick's Guest DJ slot at Pin Ups last October!!

AND as a reward for reading down this far - we're also giving away 2 tickets to Patrick's Glasgow gig - just email us at pinup_nightsATyahoo.co.uk and describe Patrick and his music in 3 words. Just 3 words! Be as generous or as witty as you like. Entries should be sent to us by 10pm tonight.

Thank you

I would be there if I was there in Glasgow!

but I'm currently in London, so clearly, I can't be there

Loved the DJ set he did before though

What i found SO annoying was i was IN Glasgow on the wednesday for a audition but i couldn't stay on for i had a exam on the friday Grrr

[scarredbyfallout]

Oh God, i've just found out about this! Why couldn't I have read this post before I went to the gig eh?

[A force of nature]

i didn't go because when patrick talked about it on stage in glasgow he made it sound like it was his management that organised it against his will so i wasn't really up for it

[scarredbyfallout]

Did he mention it? Don't remember... well, doesn't sound like i missed much then.

I'd like to have been there, but last bus home was 11, so no such luck. Hope people had a good time though.

I'm very disappointed to hear that Patrick made neagtive comments about this event onstage. (I am a huge fan and would have been at the gig had I not had Pin Ups to run.)

Patrick Guest DJ'd at Pin Ups in October ( www.pinup-nights.co.uk/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=34 ) and I don't think we could have done much more to make him feel at home. He was paid what I consider to be a very reasonable fee, was accommodated in a nice hotel, was provided with whatever drinks he desired, was slipped a few quid for taxis about town etc.

I invited him to return to DJ for us - for the same very reasonable fee - after this Glasgow gig, but he refused. His PR company however was happy to let us run an aftershow. As great fans of Patrick we were delighted to do so.

They say "never meet your heroes", but Patrick was completely charming during his visit in October, which makes this sort of feedback all the more unexpected, confusing and depressing.

As I've said, I'm disappointed by this, but still wish Patrick all the best. The night still went well, with a few Patrick fans in attendance, the action can be seen in the gallery here - www.pinup-nights.co.uk/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=41
