Great showing of @nightingalesuk.bsky.social 'King Rocker' @margatefilmfest.bsky.social yesterday, complete with very jovial Q&A with Messrs Lee and Cumming. Terrific seeing it on "the big screen" and hopefully will get people along to see them at #RamsgateMusicHall in February......

My friend went to Krankenhaus this weekend and came back raving about seeing the film King Rocker. I designed this last year but did nothing with it. That’s fine, but I wanted to put it out there again to show my appreciation for having Vindaloo records in my early teens. Bostin’.
