Hell Is For... Mercury Tilt Switch
shadyadie by [redacted] September 11th, 2002
Dundee rockers Mercury Tilt Switch have been asked to support Hell Is For Heroes on tour.

The invite came by singer Justin Schlosberg. MTS were already about to embark on a long tour of their own (including a DiS night) when they got the invite via email. So our weary Scottish heroes thought "how can we turn this down?" and off on the road they continue.

Here are the remaining dates for the MTS chaps:

September

11th - EDINBURGH, Bongo Club
12th - HULL, Adelphi
13th - DARTFORD, Amor Hall
15th - GLASGOW, Barfly
16th - ABERDEEN, Dr Drakes
17th - DERBY, Vic Inn
18th - BIRMINGHAM, Flapper & Firkin

… and supporting Hell Is For Heroes:

20th - LEICESTER, Princess Charlotte
22th: CARDIFF, Barfly
23th: WOLVERHAMPTON, Little Civic
24th - LEEDS, Cockpit
25th - LONDON, Dingwalls*
26th - EXETER, Cavern
27th - BRISTOL, Louisiana
29th - SHEFFIELD, Barfly
30th - NORWICH, Arts Centre

October

1st - MANCHESTER, Hop & Grape
2nd - SOUTHAMPTON, Joiners
3rd - BRIGHTON, Concord 2

* bastards… this clashes with the next DiS night in London, where we have Caretaker, Dustball and Mavis playing at The Windmill and it's only £3 to get in (hint hint).
