In a spin-off pilot/bonus episode: Matt briefly talks about the gig's he's been to since they started up again. He then spends time saying the word "atmosphere" far too much and in between that talks about the return of Indie Rock band Johnny Foreigner and their early October gig at the Dome in Tufnell Park, London.

There may be more of these kind of episodes. There maybe not. We don't know yet - but I hope you enjoyed this!
