With support from the likes of BBC 6 Music, NME, LOBF, DIY, Loud and Quiet and So Young Magazine, LIPWORMS head to Portsmouth 5 June at Kola and London 8 June at The George Tavern (free entry) Kola, Portsmouth tickets: link.dice.fm/lu0a0dSvv3b
@StephenMorganMP There's so many shows Brighton way that just isn't feasible to attend as the last train back to Portsmouth is so early, along with trains back to Brighton for those attending a show in Portsmouth. It would boost music tourism for the south-coast as a whole.
@StephenMorganMP Could we get more trains between Brighton and Portsmouth and the other way around for later in the evening? It would be easier to host more bands Portsmouth way and for people to attend shows in Portsmouth so they can get home and also the other way around.
