That's right. Arkansas favourites The Gossip are heading over to the UK, post-Jonathan Ross debut, to promote their new single, 'Standing in the Way of Control'. It's a pro-gay marriage rant at George Bush's controversial ban on same-sex matrimony in the US, & its implicated ferocity is stunningly matched musically. Here are the dates!
