A Note from the Editors
Bonjour! The Monograph G I G U I D E is back once again to give you your monthly dose of whats going on in the city. We have just returned from a wine fuelled French adventure and are now ready to hit September with a bang! September hails the opening of the Leicester O2 and we couldn't be more excited, never has such a venue been present in the city and we are sure will fill the void that The Charlotte left behind. As always if you want to have your gig/clubnight/ event listed for October just drop us a line here.
Unmissable
Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly
@ O2 Leicester | 21st September
For what seemed like a flash in the pan at the time, Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly has stood the test of time and it still going strong. His music has evolved into a more rounded refined sound and we really think this gig at the new O2 will be well worth a gander. Support comes in the form of David Lyre.
