Possibly the most exciting announcement we’ve ever had at NRG headquarters – our bout this weekend (Saturday February 8th) has been sponsored by our favourite band, Maxïmo Park! We were featured in both The Journal and The Chronicle today, if you didn’t manage to pick up a copy you can check out both great articles online here and here.  The ‘Park have been supporters of our league and north east roller derby for many years now so we’re ecstatic to work with them on promoting our event and their brand new album Too Much Information. You can get your discounted advance tickets for our double header against Rainy City Roller Girls right here, and the album is available in all the usual internet and real life shops from today. Oh, and keep your eyes on our Facebook if you’re a Maxïmo Park fan, you’ll soon see why…
