EARLY arrival is recommended for tonight's (Saturday) comeback gig by major-label punks The Stiffs.

The four-piece, originally from Blackburn and Clayton-le-Moors, will play their first public gig together for 14 years at Cob Wall Working Men's Club, Daisyfield, Blackburn, starting at 8pm.

Tickets for the one-off reunion gig cost £4 and are available on the door. But hurry. They're being snapped up fast.

Present-day Blackburn punks Boredom UK provide support and the bar is set to run until midnight.
