Joe Atom

I have downloaded it, but I'm going to wait until tomorrow to listen to it as at the moment I am slightly irritated with your intolerant attitude, which may lead to a biassed opinion of the track. I'll let you know what I think, straight up...

Aye min, pure cock-rock. Loads of songs about knobs, shagging, that sort of thing... Just call me Joe Bon Jovi...

'Holier than thou' Stripey, mean anything to you? At all? We've put a lot of time and effort into writing a cd, now I'm not going to go around telling people that it's crap am I? And for all you know people all over the world might have downloaded and enjoyed our music... I just don't understand what your problem is. If you are in a band, then it's a logical step to build up a fanbase... that's what we've done, if you're slagging them all off then that's up to you, but it's such a dismissive and snobbish attitude to take. Why are they stupid if they think we're good and you don't? Christ, I always end up trying to be reasonable, next time I don't think I'll bother. I don't have to justify myself to you. If you think it's funny that people like us, then good on you, you're entitled to your opinion, just like I might think it odd if you'd ever kissed a girl...

Oh Stripey, Stripey please tab it for me

Fuck off Stripey. You never seem to go out and actually experience anything, you're just here all the time telling everyone that they're shite and you're amazing. How many people want to play YOUR songs Stripey? None. Because they're probably shite. Coming on our forum and tellling us we're crap... smacks of the behaviour of the kind of person who would go onto a gay chatroom and slag off the homos (i.e. patheticly childish and hopelessly immature). Why do you get so mad that people like us Stripey? You jealous are you? Come on, bring the wrath... I'm a midget and I'll still kick yer arse...

Guitar tunings are all in standard E tuning except Rasses guitar in 'the tie that binds' where the low E is dropped to a D. Hope that helps

Go and tab the watcher Rass you lazy bastard

Thank you very much gentlemen... Rasses hair looks a helluva colour in those pics

That's not working for me... not even the right-click thing

The Messiah eh? I think another balding short frontman might have something to say about that I wasn't bootlegging with my mic, I was getting a recording of Double Jack from the sounddesk... I had only just arrived in time for them so I was in a bit of a rush at that point as I had promised them a recording Come and say hi at the Moorings gig, it's not so huge and won't be so packed so I'm bound to be unknowingly standing right next to you at some point! Looking forward to the photos! Thanks again, and thanks for making the trip into town just to see us

Cool! I hoped you would say that, if they're as good as his photos from Blaze then they'll be ace indeed! Sandy videoed the whole gig but I haven't watched it yet... I hope it was as good as it felt You should have come and introduced yerself lad! Did I speak to you at all?

Did anyone take any photographs of the gig?

Really?! I think it's my least favourite (that's not to say that I don't like it because obviously I like the whole album ). But maybe that's because it's a bugger to sing. Come to think of it the solos are absolutely ace in it...

I swore a lot in front of them and felt bad because your mum is so cool Sorry Rasses Mum.

Aye it was... but there being six of us, it was a bit of a squeeze... t'was cool as fuck though to rock a shop!

I'd just like to say the biggest ever thank you to you all, you made us feel a million billion dollars last night We love you and without you we probably wouldn't be here today. The chanting of Atom honestly overwhelmed me entirely, and put the biggest grin on my face... The other bands (what I saw of them) all seemed to play absolutely great too. It was a fabulous night... I thought we made a few mistakes and shit, but the feel of the gig was so superb that it just didn't matter!! Expect the new material to get tighter and better as we get used to playing it, and expect some variation in the setlist from now on too! Once again, you all rule, please come back and see us again and again. LEGEND!!

...what do you think?

Or he'll have swelled to 3 times his normal size... guitarists and their damn egos! Black Atom are now on last by the way... So it will be the Dangerfields then Double Jack then Karloff then us

Paul, NAY!! I saw them supporting Thunder and Alice Cooper and they were pretty rubbish... You can book Alice Cooper though... can you imagine... ...don't get Thunder either.

Well, thanks to all of you who showed up for the One-up gig, and particularly to those 15 people who bought the album! It went a lot better than I thought it was going to when I turned up and saw the tiny space which we were supposed to all fit in to! Demon of the fall, it was nice to put a face to the name... Thanks again, I'm off to soundcheck at the Lemon Tree. MEEETTAAALLLL!

Hoorah! Hooray! The Cds arrived yesterday! And very proffesional they do look too... those clots in Dundee were too stuck up (or down) to purchase even a single copy, so screw them... Anyone who does part with the cash will hopefully be very impressed, as this isn't a case of shitey cd-rs with photocopied covers or any of that jazz... proper lovely silver cds, in proper printed loveliness... mmmm..... And they'll be on-sale in one-up when we play 3 songs there in less than an hour-and-a-half!! Hurry, hurry, hurry!

Thanks... yeah, it was a bit of a shame that the locals couldn't bring themselves to show a little more enthusiasm, but at least we can rest safe in the knowledge that their own Dundee bands are pretty shite It was worth doing, even as a warm-up for tonight
