and Hello once again, dear readers, incoherant alcoholics, functioning depressives and debauched criminal drug addicts. sorry. we meant politicans.

who gives a shit about the Budget? and if you do, what the fuck were you expecting? a kiss before a fist got rammed in  your arse?

no. celebrate instead, because nothing you do will have an effect on those cocooned tits in parliament! we’re fine, of course, here on the Top Shelf – we are already millionaires. in fact, we own the Bank of England. no, really! slipped in the last bid on ebay and won, you know! what luck! to be fair, it was going for a song… which neatly brings us to our next point. not that we would wish to ram it down your throats, but if you like that kind of treatment, then here’s where to find us for the rest of April:

19th April: ‘Madame Mephisto’ Book Launch

26th April: Blind Tiger Gypsy Duo

27th & 28th April: The Candlelight Club

14th april: the blitz party

16th April: Le Quecumbar

is it any better? usually not. It is really good in Melbourne, though! *Gloat*

Well, if it helps, Top Shelf Jazz will be seeing out the month of St. David & St. Patrick (funnily, both Welshmen, i learn. and a fat lot of difference that made…) by contributing to your drinking reveries in Bristol and London.

Pay attention to the calendar, dear reader, and make a note of where and when to spend your money (wisely at the bar)!

*end transmission*

February is, simply put, a shite month here in grey old Blighty and so we urge you to sign any current petitions to the government to have this month (and January) banned from existence. Until such time, of course, the winter gloom can be lifted by attending the following events wherein Top Shelf Jazz will bring you happiness, joy and sin!!

Timing not being an important issue in the Top Shelf Band, we thought we’d post in order of importance….

This here is the biggie for the Month – 18th February 2012:

“St. Valentine’s Day Massacre” at The Antelope, Tooting

Other highlights for February include….

10th February 2012: The Jamboree

with The Late Night Shop Cabaret!!

11th February 2012: The Nightjar

16th February 2012: Gypsy Swing Duo in Filthy MacNasty’s

17th February 2012: GypsSwing Trio in The Lost Society

Enjoy!

don’t face it sober, we say! keep an eye on the calendar and come and celebrate our impending doom and double-dip economy with us in the Top Shelf gutter!

We thought “Double Dip” meant something entirely different, of course… imagine our surprise!

Top Shelf Jazz lend their immoral support once again to the war effort, headlining the

Blitz Party  NYE War Office Special

and guiding in the New Year with their historically inaccurate rendition of Auld Lang Syne.

DRINK FOR VICTORY!

(please stamp your ration cards responsibly)

 …And to warm up before their main ev’nsong,

Top Shelf Jazz will be opening the proceedings at the very decadent

White Mink’s NYE Electro Swing Speakeasy!
