IN JULY they brought the house down and, after a series of rave reviews it may be advisable to wear a hard hat when Misty's Big Adventure return to Lancaster tonight (Friday) to head a festive four-band Feedback gig.

A John Peel favourite, the more-ish nine-piece pop band are back to celebrate Christmas after a stint supporting The Zutons and The Magic Numbers. Grandmaster Gareth remains at the helm dead-pan, lounge-singer act intact.

The brummies, who recently released their acclaimed album The Black Hole, will be joined by indie act The Seven Inches; Preston's biggest band offering, The Baker Street Irregulars and one-man and his guitar Kr!ss Foster at the Farmers' Arms from 8pm-1am. Get your tickets at the door.
