1-800 started life as a fortnightly event at PP in Shoreditch, just James, Dan, Rob and Klaus playing tunes they like, first shows were pretty empty, no announcements, nice vibes, then James announced it was him + friends on his FB account .. place got rammed every 2 weeks ... PP moved it to a Saturday, but Blake is now touring

Dan, James's manager has left R&S now and has set up 1-800 as a label and club night, hence the Blake release recently, so one can assume Airhead next but who knows

1-800 will be releasing some of the best music over the next few years as Dan is looking after it

definitely agree with that, but what a shame about dan leaving r&s.
