Peter from Essex,

I wonder, if you had got that first info from KM, and been sent to a Thursday club on Tuesday, would you ever have tried again.

Local press IS the best form of publicity, but only when they take the trouble to read the full diary lists I sent them quarterly in advance, for three years. They did not even have to enter them in their computer system, as I used E-Mail.

The accuracy of their listings is such that only one club night in four is correctly listed, and, after three years of trying, I have not been able to persuade them to give us any editorial coverage at all. I am not the only person to have suffered in this way, it is par for the course, where KM is concerned. If you ain't buying ad space, don't expect accuracy.
