Guys, guys, guys, we're LIVE, LIVE, LIVE
🕑 Added 2024-10-31 09:00:08 +0000 UTCEDIT: Sorry everyone, minor glitch, all tickets should be on sale now.
Hello again.
Well, it’s been a while since we’ve recorded a podcast or two in front of a live audience but all that is about to change. We’ve booked in not one but THREE locations in which to make live pods over the next few months, starting with the Mini factory in Oxford on 28 November. After that, we’re returning to the Aston Workshop Car Barn in Beamish, County Durham where long-time listeners may remember we recorded a couple of years ago, inside a lovely wedding marquee while snow fell all around. Very pretty, but also very tricky for anyone in a rear-wheel-drive car trying to leave afterwards. So let’s hope that doesn’t happen again. Finally (for now), we fancied a trip to the south coast so we’ll be in Eastbourne in February.
As ever, we wanted our Patrons to have first dibs on the tickets before they go on general sale tomorrow morning to coincide with the new OTOSOT. As a Patreon you can follow the links below right now to get your tickets before all those stinkin’ non-Patrons pile in.
Hope to see you at one of the OTLOTs very soon, and all that.
Cheersmatethanksmatebye
Jonny & Richard
Thursday 28 November - MINI factory, Oxford

Hello SSGs. Looking forward to seeing you both at Eastbourne. The address for the venue on Eventbrite is different to the one on this post. Is it Mallory Hall or Shackleton Hall we should be aiming for! CMTMB
RICHARD COHEN
CMTMB , see you there
Tim Rastall
Google street view shows a “Bld 81.0” sign next to Horspath Road, between gates 7 and 8… I shall aim there and be prepared to be shouted at by Security.
Lorne Smyth
Unfortunately we can't make any of these, but really looking forward to the podcasts!
David B
Would love to make it to my first event. Already been told no to Oxford (fiancée's birthday the day after), don't want to upset her and all that Might be able to make Eastbourne though, from up north (Merseyside)
Jose Freitas
2 tickets booked for Eastbourne! Coming all the way from Portugal!
Emmajg
Maybe a Friday not a good day. My Rich says he's seen a few on the B4100 near Banbury side maybe they're going back roads via Kineton. Maybe stop at Gilks and say hi to Keith. Though if you do visit again you're welcome to pop in for a cuppa.
Jack Hitchen-Siddall
Just bought tickets for all 3! Hopefully my little Transssssit courier Spowwwwt will make it from Penistone for each event
Michael Lyth
Thank you, looking forward to it!
Mark Sheridan
I was at the last Aston Workshop recording in a 76 year old rear drive vehicle with no driver aids, no heating, not even a blower motor, it was very interesting drive home but what a brilliant night, I’ll definitely try and get tickets for this years!
RICHARD COHEN
anyone know directions to the Event space building - the postcode drops a pin right in the middle of the factory but nothing about which road or gate to get there? CMTMB
Ben Lambert
Absolutely
Zac Chandler
🤣🤣🤣 cream first. Like butter
Emmajg
Yeah I def coming to Oxford, what sort of pies? I'm going to bake mini cupcakes and I bake some pies
Adam
If you’re bringing pies then maybe I can make it to Oxford 🤣
Adam
Now that is dedication
Adam
*cough* JAM FIRST *cough* 🤣
Nathan English
Lovely man. x
Adam
Dont tease!… C’mon, tell me you’re coming SW?!🙏 Also, check your emails for potential steam-engine-to-a-pub action. 👍🏼
Smith and Sniff
More live show dates and venues coming soon...
Smith and Sniff
We're hoping to bring along a full range of merch for these upcoming live shows. Richard
Smith and Sniff
We're working on it, I promise. Richard
Andy Faulkner-Clegg
Pembrey circuit or Llandaff in a marquee in the warmer months? Or maybe where the build the monstrous DBX at St. athan
Douglas Brown
Perfect timing, I've booked a day off from my job at Mini plant Swindon to see some SSGs at Mini plant Oxford, on my birthday!
George Wade
Mini factory, I'm there.
Nathan English
Still no Ireland huh 🤔
Ryan Beveridge
The Mini Factory is just round the corner from me (literally walking distance) yet despite living here for nearly a decade I've never been.
Michael Lyth
Any chance you SSG's will be bringing some merch along for purchase? You forgot it the first time you came to the Aston Workshop recording/S&S Christmas do. It was still a bloody good night out, only this time I'd like to pull the trigger on some new designs in person. CMTMB
Emmajg
Yes got Oxford and Eastbourne booked - can't wait. Now which of the awesome t-shirts to wear??
Emmajg
😂😂
Julian Tangney
Fighting the urge to buy plane tickets from my home in New Zealand to come to the show
Zac Chandler
OK fair enough 👌 Devon way would be great 😆
Smith and Sniff
I fear that's beyond our technical capabilities. But we will be doing more live shows next year. Already got a couple in the pipeline. More announcements soon...
Adam
Bugger, I really wanna go, closest is Oxford but its a 4hr drive and I have to be on the school run the next morning!… 🤔
Zac Chandler
I can't get to any of those 🙁 any chance you could live stream it for patreons?
Howard Waller
Ah crap: I live a 5 minute walk from the MINI venue, but already have tix for a gig that night :-/
Paul coey
Tickets for Eastbourne booked flying over from Northern Ireland, rent a car from Gatwick airport and drive to Eastbourne, I’m bringing the service book of my focus rs mk1 to be signed 😂
Andy Faulkner-Clegg
😂 I’m definitely old enough to remember more than, was thinking more of bringing a child who would say SADEEEE..who’s that? (Teenager)
Matthew Bartlett
If you are old enough to know x2 Sade songs you are old enough to attend a OTSOT branch meeting!
Sparkomatic
So I'll be seeing you at Beamish I guess, otsot
Andy Faulkner-Clegg
Is there a minimum age for these events?
David Aston
Tickets for Oxford booked!
Emmajg
Right I think I can shuffle stuff so I can make Oxford, question shall I bring some mince pies 😂? Also as I don't like them I can bake some mini cupcakes.
Tim Wood
Hah. So they are... They weren't a little earlier. I got my ticket! C U there?!
Emmajg
Is it bad I'm trying to persuade them to come up Friday so I can go 😂
Richard Gledhill
2 tickets booked for Oxford. Bring on the S&S brigade!
Sean Richardson
I've managed to use the link in the email through chrome rather than being routed to the Eventbrite app. It says I've successfully bought one now so 🤞🏻
Declan Berridge
I've been getting a "something went wrong" message for the past hour or so. They'll have probably split up by the time I get a working link...
Kristopher Heaven
Anywhere really, Richard holidays near where I live (Gower) so if its good enough for him to bring his family here I am sure he could persuade Jonny to do a live show here! I guess they just need a venue. There are barn finds in south Wales so it must just be finding a suitable car based venue. The museum of speed at Pendine sands would work...
Steve Morton
Eastbourne, got to be the place for the most deceased spec cars?
Ben Lambert
They’re now on sale, the link now works
Sean Richardson
Car Bark link still seems to be knackered. Or might just be me
Emmajg
See you there
Emmajg
It had crossed my mind but sadly it's not their thing also we do need to be up early teaching origami at Comic Con (NEC)
Robert Seymour
Bring them along...
Robert Seymour
Sweet sweet guys, Oxford booked!
Craig Bradley
Working now 😁
Noel Huggett
Looks like it will be Eastbourne for me.
Joe Brudenell
Update, ticket secured and I’ll bring along a few trinkets for you both that I hope you’ll both appreciate
Newark Jr
Delighted you’re coming back to the North East, especially given I couldn’t make the 2022 spec model 🔥🔥🔥
Ben Lambert
Can’t wait! My dad and I will be there in my Scimitar
Tim Oldland
Fuck it I’m ALL IN. Two for Eastbourne as well.
Tim Oldland
Got me some sweet sweet Oxford tickets, BOOM.
Joe Brudenell
Eastbourne is the one for me as I’m in Portsmouth, hopefully it’ll let me buy a ticket soon.
Rj10048
Are these sold out? The Durham link is just giving me a reminder option for tomorrow?
Rich Tysoe
This is almost a tour…
Fox Munsey
I always manage to have something immovable booked that clashes with the local date. Every damn time (twice)
Michael Gadie
You SSGs need to organise some events around Yorks/Lincs area. County Durham is just out of my range. Imagine the convenience for Jonny and all that
Emmajg
Right going to have to book time off work and have a long drive to Eastbourne - early birthday trip away.
Andy Rathbone
The Eastbourne is link not working.
Tim Wood
Horam/Heathfield. I've set the EventBrite reminder, tickets on sale early January!
Emmajg
Dammit want to go to Oxford but have friends staying over 😭
Mr Bean.crom
Which part of Wales are we thinking? Up in the north where sheep outnumber people or down in the South where rugby is a religion
Craig Bradley
Yeh same no links are working 😕
Ben Lambert
Where about’s are you? I’m in Seaford
Mr Bean.crom
Folks, Only the Mini factory is available now, Aston is showing available tomorrow and Mallory 6th Jan
Jimbob Blair
Links aren't working for me 🫤
Amos Menin
Are all the tickets meant to be on sale now? As only the ones for Oxford are
Tim Wood
Eastbourne! NFW!! That's 20mins away from me. Absolute certainly!!!
Chris Oxford
Nice, I could walk to the Mini plant, or take a no name mountain bike.
Simon Turner
Great news! Apologies if I've misunderstood, but only the Oxford one seems bookable?
Kim G
Reminder added!!
Kristopher Heaven
Could you flutes come to Wales at some point please.
