GIG: The RomantiX @ King William IV

The Romantix, Live at The King William IV, Pembury

The RomantiX played at the King William IV, Pembury, Kent as part of the Acoustic Valium Project Reunion organised by Dan Littlechild. Lining up with Neil on vocals/guitar, Dave Freind on lead guitar, Van Greg on synthesiser, Robin Smith on bass and Rob Mardell on drums.

Acoustic Valium Project Reunion was a two day event featuring Local Artists and heartfelt performances in memory of Lucy, Tom, Gerard, Danny B, Stefan and Mel.

We had an enjoyable gig lasting one hour as well as enjoying the other acts and socialising.
