We're writing to tell you about our final concert of 2012.
On Friday December 9th, we return to St Cuthbert's Church in Copnor, Portsmouth.
We played there in 2008 as part of their fund-raising drive to turn their massive and little-used Church into a community centre. Back in 2008, half the Church had been divided off and turned into a GP's Surgery, Nursery and a suite of community rooms, and we played in the room at the very top - the Bradbury Suite, with it's domed roof and rather unusual acoustics.
At that point, the other half of Church was an empty shell, waiting for funds to return it to a refurbished place of Workshop.
Now, that work is done and hago are holding the very first event in its new life - a Concert lit by 25 Christmas Trees, each decorated by the children at a different local school.
Tickets are £7 on the door - you can find maps and directions to the venue here on our website....
Do come along - we've slipped a couple of Christmas items into our programme, so it'll be a lovely and gentle start to the season of goodwill.
