Hello.

We are currently enjoying unemployment, we are not sure how long it will last, but so far, so good. 3 songs have been written in 5 days, none being 3 minute 30 potential singles - Having nothing to do in your day brings new temptations...However, up to now (and thankfully), Joe's saxophone case remains firmly shut..

Much entertainment this week has come from the following sources, they say it's only right to share:

Holla.

This weekend we played Dot to Dot festival in Bristol and Nottingham and had a good time. We haven't got a record, an EP or single out at the moment, so playing to a full room of people is always a nice surprise. We should have perhaps made more of an effort to watch lots of other bands, but after playing we were feeling pretty tired wand the lure of sitting in the van for hours proved too great..We did however see some bands; Liars were awesome, watching frontman Angus Andrews on stage is like witnessing someone having a mental breakdown. Beach House were the other highlight, they were not only stunning, but spectacularly proved you can create some sort of atmosphere, even in a huge pseudo leisure centre/school gym type room..

(It seemed like a good idea at the time)


I have made another spotify playlist, with music from Galaxie 500, Grandaddy, Brian Jones Town Massacre, Stevie Wonder et al

Hello.

So, an update on the shoes..The ones i ordered still haven't come, but the situation is suprisingly better, im currently using plasters to cover the holes (yes there's another), and just so you know, it's working out for me..

We are currently finishing our final exams of university (albeit one more for Joe next week), soon there we will have no more excuses. Last weekend we played Stag & Dagger festival in Glasgow. The drive was long but we had a fun time. A pattern may be emerging: both times we have played in Glasgow have been sunny days, good venues with nice food and beer, and every single person we have met has been nice...including the skag addict we met on the first occasion. It always feels a long way from home up there, which at the moment is a good thing.

Here are some photos i found of the gig:









This weekend we are playing Dot to Dot festival. If you are going, you can find us in these places, at these times:

Bristol
The Louisiana - 4.15PM

Nottingham
Rescue Rooms - 3.00PM



After that the plan is to play more gigs and start releasing some music, stadium tour/pyrotechnics/Concept Double Album

Hello.

First of all, this week has been a rubbish week. I currently have a hole in the bottom of my shoe, which within 10 minutes of walking necessarily means a hole in my sock..Therefore have been walking around pretty much bare footed on the right hand side...This has been far from ideal on 'rough' terrain as every step feels like a punch to the face..

This week has had very few highlights, i will however share them with you...

Monday - Someone sitting next to me fell off of their chair. The best part wasn't their desperate and unsuccessful attempt to avoid the floor, rather the somewhat calm manoeuvre of picking themselves up from a pile on the floor, sitting back on the chair as if nothing had happened and nobody had noticed..

Tuesday - Finding out that my housemate has FOUR Blue Peter badges. He also went onto the show and got a hug from Konnie Huq...Fuck knows where i was going wrong all those years..

Wednesday - Someone left a carrier bag in the library near me. After a few hours, when i was leaving i had a little look, saw a glimpse of a bag of marshmallows inside so naturally took the bag and left. On further inspection i also found two packets of biscuits and a Subway cookie..

Today - When walking along the pavement a branch from a tree fell (don't ask me how or why) and landed two yards in front of me. That thing landing on my head would have surely been the last straw..


On the positive, i have ordered some new shoes (and they should be on their way) AND we are playing a gig on Saturday (Albeit 400 miles away in Scotland). We will be appearing at Stag & Dagger Festival in Glasgow, at the Captain's Rest venue @ 4.45PM
