@Kastoffkinks Yup. Actually going next week. Looking forward to it. But tomorrow seeing Colin Blunstone at the same venue.

@sidcup1320 Not actually with the Kast Off Kinks, but I am their webmaster and they are great friends. Do try to see them - you won't be disappointed!

[sidcup1320]

@Kastoffkinks So, are you with the KastoffKinks then? We are hoping to go see them next year. Went to Dave's house for the satsang weekend which was pretty incredible esp. Dave and the music.

@Kastoffkinks Sorry. Well at least it means we didn't miss them/you doing Fortis Green! So there are two lots of Spivs out there. Still good though.

@sidcup1320 Thanks for the kind comments, nice to know that you did part of the Kinks tour. The Spivs you saw at the Signal Gallery must have been a different set of Spivs, because we weren't there! :-)

Great version and love the images. A new and zealous Kinks fan, I yesterday went on part of the London Kinks tour and saw some of the area. Then watched (or rather listened to) Dave’s version on YouTube and saw that the Spivs had done this tribute. Strange coincidence is that I had only just seen the Spivs play at the Signal Gallery. A good set and they seemed really personable. I had no idea there was any kind of Kinks connection.
