Crimson Clocks In Red Planet Shocker!!

The Sprat has discovered that highly regarded so called "steampunk" band Crimson Clocks have been linked to attempts to sell Mars, and we don't mean the confectionary. 

They, along with Birthrite, will be taking part in a night of what has been described as "Steampunk madness in the heart of Leicester". Are the poor residents of Leicester ready for this steampunk invasion? The Spratt has reason to think not. Our investigations have revealed that a few tickets for this event are still available on the internet, an underground source said "I am a mole, you dig?.". It has also come to our attention that high quality "Steampunk" literature will be changing hands at this event (the works of Rae Gee no less!). Will the poor citizens of Leicester get a chance to purchase this for themselves or will the horde of steampunks descending on Leicester like a plague of literature starved locusts purchase the entire stock? We suspect the latter may be the case. 

What of Crimson Clocks? What is their part in this? As ever, The Sprat has asked the questions that others fear to ask in an attempt to ensure our readership is fully informed with all of the facts. Where we don't have the facts we've been forced to rely on rumour and hearsay. Vivacious vocalist Linzi (21), from Birmingham, had this to say when we contacted her "Who is this? Do you have any idea what time it is?". Rockstars take note, The Sprat always wears a watch and requires answers not questions. Bass player Colin (93) said something when questioned, but no one (and that includes The Sprat) listens to bass players. Our attempts to contact Jo and Steve were both met with laughter and the sound of the phone being put down as soon as we were forced to admit we were indeed The Sprat.

Fear not though for The Spratt intends to be at the Selling Mars book launch, in disguise, inept and in over our head to bring you a full report after the event.

Late Breaking News!!

The Sprat has heard a whisper that Crimson Clocks will be on stage at Alt Fest 2014 also, in addition, as well as, and extra to that, they will be on stage at Raising Steam this September. Get your tickets before its too late!
