Thee Faction - Live at The Railway Hotel Southend-on-Sea, September 08th

Here's a message from Retro Man Blog pals, Mondo and Piley of Radio Podrophenia...

"Calling all residents of the Podrophenia postcode: on September the 8th, we bring you - a third outing of the Podrophenia Roadshow - heading up the bill are Rhythm and Blues revolutionaries Thee Faction making their Southend debut at The Railway Hotel. If you haven't heard them yet - expect the driving stride of Dr. Feelgood, tag-teamed with a live Northern Soul horn section. But don't just take our word for how hot-rocking they are - browse the reviews below, then draw a bold, red ring around September the 8th. We'll hope too see you there..."
