Fanzine to run three days of events in London in November

Legendary fanzine Chickfactor will be hosting a bunch of shows in London to celebrate their 20th anniversary.

Editors Gail O’Hara and Pam Berry et al. touch down in London in November for a weekend of musical and artistic capers (with an all-dayer, starting at 2pm, on Sunday), including a live performance from ‘we are not an indie band’ Glaswegians The Pastels and John Peel’s favourite ‘lady singer-songwriter in the country', Bridget St John.
