Uncle Pedro, a band you may recall if you rummage around the backs of the cushions of your mental sofa, return from a period of unenforced slumber (read laziness) to perform in the inaugural Shepherd’s Bush Oxjam Takeover event on Saturday 29th October.

Oxjam are a series of UK-wide events happening throughout October organised by local volunteers to raise money for Oxfam. Shepherd’s Bush’s own Oxjam Takeover is a one-day festival taking over several of W12′s finest performance spaces with over 40 bands and DJ’s doing their thing with all proceeds going to Oxfam. For far more information about the event and the work Oxfam do go along to www.oxjamshepbush.org.uk

Tickets/wristbands, which get you entry to every show throughout the day, are available from www.wegottickets.com/f/2808

Early bird tickets are currently £10, with tickets on the day at £12. Also available is a group discount, should you buy 5 tickets at the same time you can go to the ball for £8 each.

You will find us slaying faces at The Goldhawk (122 Goldhawk Road, W12 8HH) at around 9pm. Should you wish to recover from that then we strongly recommend popping down to Vesbar afterwards to see our good friends Roscoe Tanner (featuring Vince on “quiet” setting). Dan’ll be heckling him from up front should you wish to join him.

Hope to see you there on the day!
