Just a reminder that the PSB exhibition opens today, at the National Portrait Gallery in London.

I have just had a text from a friend saying that he is at the NPG and that the exhibition is stunning. I want to go!

Aw... can't you take some holidays or something for Christmas (or before March) so you could see the exhibition?

Or your friend could go in with a (sneaky) webcam. Sorry lame joke.

I went today before it closed

I took a few pics and will show here soon as! The book shop is selling copies of Catalogue and selling a postcard of the picture on the inside cover of the book.

Does anyone from London want to send Pani
a postcard by chance? Any volunteers?

I've been told it's a tiny Exhibition, it's free to enter and will be running till february. Still tempted to visit...

There's an article about the exhibition in today's Evening Standard:

This is London

Thank you very much, I have sent a card in return!

A PSB one of course ...

Thanx for posting the article ...

Only Pennie Smith's back-stage documentary shots from
a 1997 tour offer insight into their characters, revealing
Lowe smiling and Tennant laughing: a necessary compa-
nion to otherwise masked performances.

What about the music events that are planned at the NPG?
Normally there'll be on in december and january... Any info?

I went today, and they have the PopArt DVD on loop, so it was even nicer with the music tinkling in the background... bizarrely saw someone from work in there!

It's a small but nice exhibition, and it's great to see the photos frames and in high quality print.

@Wieske: I saw a notice for two events in the Bookshop Gallery, one is with Chris Hoare where he chats about PSB (I think) and then there is one in January, which I am very tempted to go to. A cellist and hard dance producer (I have forgotten the name of the guy, sorry!) will play music inspired by PSB. I am sure the details will be on either the NPG or PSB website at some point.
