Dodge the seasonal sickness this coming weekend with The Thanes. Dejected shoppers in Edinburgh should thrust themselves toward the Elvis Shakespeare record shop in Leith Walk (b/w Iona and Dalmeny Streets) for 3pm on Saturday a'noon. Mulled r+r music to release you from the all-enveloping Christmas frenzy. Still fresh from their Stateside success with The Sonics who only have gone on the record as not believing in Christmas. I believe they're out to shake up Easter too...
