	The Mike Goes Peculiar in Belfast – 05/05/04   Our Mike will head out to the Cathedral Quarter Arts Festival in the fair city of Belfast on Wednesday 5th May to perform with old pal Andy Rourke and new partner in crime – the irrepressible Vinny Peculiar.  This ground-breaking gig will be held at the swanky John Hewitt bar by the Cathedral on the docksides and trust us - it’s gonna fucking ROCK!  Not only will this be the first live performance with the full new band line-up but cult Scots legend Eugene Kelly (Reindeer Section, Vaselines) is supporting them and tickets are a measly £6.  Get there early and see Mr Joyce scrapping with Terry “Glass Eye” Hooley over who’s the best - the Undertones or the Buzzcocks.         Tickets £6.00 from the Festival Office on 028 90232403 and Belfast Welcome Centre on 028 90246609.
