There are pieces by some of the leading artists in Scotland so deffinately worth getting there, it'll be your chance to win a large bargainous painting, and a historical object.

As you know, the LA Bartenders ran our bar at Spin On This, and what a job they did, no complaints here! In return we are doing them a massive mural in their space, they sure know how to look after folk and fed us BBQ and cocktails and got us to bring down the mighty Chakka Chakumaki to play us tunes while we worked.
We're not quite finished but this is where we've got to. If you want to see some more flicks go to our Flickr.
We'll be sure to post it when its finished....
