[dropcap style=”font-size:100px; color:#992211;”]O[/dropcap]ne for this week’s diary children, Kid Congo Powers and The Pink Monkey Birds are playing a one off London show this Thursday at The Rhythm Factory, E1.
If you’ve not yet had the opportunity to see Kid play live I strongly suggest you remedy this by grabbing tickets as soon as you possibly can, it’s sure to sell out and if you miss it then you will be sad, possibly cry and self harm.
Let’s not bore you with the incredible pedigree of the man or the musical excellence of the band. Just go get sweaty.
