  START SAVING FOR BIRTHDAY PRESENTS FOR DAVID NOW!!

  WATCH AND PRAY NOW!!!

  There will be no other shows by C93 in England this year, and presently there are no other concerts planned by C93 apart from the show in Moscow on 4 March; David Tibet will consider future shows after the London appearances, depending on how he faces space.

  C93 will play predominantly different sets on each night.

  C93 will manifest as the full extended Current. Prepare for some unexpected Members of the Current Family.

  NURSE WITH WOUND: www.myspace.com/babssantini are C93's special guests on Friday 28 May. This is the first time that C93 & NWW have ever played together on stage. C93 and NWW have had an intimate relationship since David Tibet first met Steven Stapleton as an awe-struck fan in 1983, and Steven was one of the first members of C93 and has remained an integral part of the group since, whilst Steven also asked David to join NWW for the 'Ostranenie 1913' album, and David continues to be a formless, free-floating member of NWW up till the present, contributing vocals to the most recent NWW album 'The Surveillance Lounge'.

  The legendary COMUS are C93's special guests on Saturday 29 May. Comus: www.comusmusic.co.uk, www.myspace.com/comusofficial have long been one of David Tibet's favourite groups, since Steven Stapleton first played him the album in the mid-1980s. David later covered Comus' 'Diana' on C93's 'Horsey' album and subsequently identified C93's 'Earth Covers Earth' mini-album in the sleevenotes as "a second utterance for Comus". Also appearing on the Saturday are the evocative and hypnotic RAMESES III, www.myspace.com/ramesesiii, a group David loves dearly.

  More information to follow soon.

  Love Anok Pe for Current 93.
