Was anyone else lucky enough to get tickets for the upcoming screenings of The The's full-length Infected video?

Announcement said:
To mark the 30th Anniversary of THE THE’s album Infected, and accompanying film Infected: The Movie, the ICA in London is proud to present three screenings on consecutive nights, the first public screenings of this film since 1987. Following the screenings, Matt Johnson, Neil Fraser (THE THE's authorised biographer) filmmaker Johanna St Michaels (directing the new documentary about THE THE) director Tim Pope (longtime THE THE collaborator) and Tom Wilcox (ICA) will discuss the album and Infected: The Movie’s political and cultural resonance.
Slightly alarmed to think it's thirty years since I bought it on vinyl, but I still know all the words.

One of the best bands ever,shame I am at the other end of the UK to see that

Still listen to their stuff on a regular basis, amazingly relevant even 3 decades on...eg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6wa-qOb8eI

Great album, I remember they showed the whole vid on The Tube one night. 30 years ago is frankly terrifying.
