I opened my New York Times art section yesterday, Sunday Feb 23, 2003
and on page 49 is an ad about 1/8th of the page for Grimethorpe's visit
to Carnegie Hall - Wed April 16th.
The advert which is a silhouette of miners in helmets against the Union
Jack starts off with
The "World's Greatest Brass Band' and stars of the International hit
movie 'BRASSED OFF".

I haven't heard Grimey for some time but I am sure there will be some of
you who agree and some who will wonder who wrote the ad!

It will be interesting to see what size of a concert they get.
Don't forget Black Dyke led the way to New York albeit with some
controversy for the Americans who took exception to their name -
figuring it was racially and sexually biased.

I am not sure what size of a crowd they got.
