[ssf] Re: CIRCA tour

[John Jordan]

this all sounds great ....

only issue would be to make sure we can have a self contained room 
within the convergence centre for 30 rebel clown recruits - as its 
hard to find your clown when there is no privacy !! ie in a big 
public space !!!

will send an email to you all tommorow with list of our needs etc ..

love and rebellion
