'lovers who uncover' is the weakest track on the ep.

we use sfh. they're good, and helpful. 500 black vinyls with sleeves is about £760, including overs, VAT, delivery (if you ask for 500, you'll probably always get 525, and you have to pay for the extra).

nah, just 7" and download from itunes etc. i'll send you some stuff.

a band who haven't heard a record past 1959. they're quite gud though.

Out on Monday... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qoOjZ2nl_qw

oh yes - he was the streaker onstage with elastica at glastonbury 1995. i saw his willy.

http://2006.sxsw.com/music/showcases/band/3037.html that's just the demo version for download, mind.

where 'bout? that's where i'm from.

from what i can remember, the only publishing deal lift had was a 'single song assignment' (or something) for the 3 tracks on that lithium records single... unless they got something afterwards i don't know about...

aye, i'm guessing most will take more than 25% tho... for the xbox thing, microsoft just called us out of the blue. we have all our contact details on our myspazz. 'soccer am' called tonite too and we've never sent them anything. w00t. i can send you microsoft contact if you want... they were gonna use the band on a driving game (shock) but it just fell thru at the last minute... would've got over 2,000 for it. bah.

sony, bmg etc plus smaller companies like reverb, and perfect songs (trevor horn's company). there are loads of them. there's a new one in brighton we met up with last week and they said they pitch for tv commercials, video game soundtracks etc and if they get you something, they take 25%, which is probably less than most... although they wanted an exclusive contract for a year (going to send it to our lawyer to check over).

call them GoodBooks, not Good Books, otherwise they get upset.

how are any of these success stories? I saw The Aeroplanes play to 15 people in a 300 capacity venue in London about 2 months ago. for the record, Fans Of Kate have a new line-up/different songs now and are now called New Adventures.

they played the club fandango showcase as a 'fringe' event at ITC (2003? or was it 2004?). and they were ace.

i'm bumped into the needles when they were out flyposting in trendy shoreditch last week. i did a double take and had to remind myself what city i was in.

lol... thanks for taking care of that jamesy. you actually wrote about 3 out of the 4 bands i was gonna write about, so i wasn't far off the mark innit! (it's the venues bit i would've struggled on)

i remember that interview. is there anything which DOESN'T make Roger Waters feel 'really gloomy'? what a cheery fellow! i don't really care what Orson bloke's background is. you don't have to have travelled round in a transit van for months to make your band any more justified. Orson probably still would've been shite if they'd gone down that route.

and this looks frickin' sweet http://www.drownedinsound.com/articles/918360

erm. tigertrap, alphabetty... that'll do. ;-) oh and domino, fierce panda, chemikal underground, dance to the radio... maybe parlophone...

maybe maps and maps could play with tapes 'n tapes, or if you played with the nashville maps and northampton maps you could be maps and maps and maps?
