  1. Digging through some old pix, found this... : Who remembers that night then?! And will the all-star lineup ever make another venture onto the stage??
  2. Well, when you gotta, you gotta....! Nothing to say your partner can't do it for you. Especially good if it's the third week out of four.
  3. Doubtful, given her gallery. Unless she stole someone else's photo album and scanned it in.... You decide. Maybe she just has a healthy cynicism and lack of respect of "the scene"...? Ooooh, I just love starting forest fires.
  4. We have : Thursday July 15th in Belfast Friday July 16th in Enniskillen with Fool and Pocket Billiards Saturday July 17th in Port Rush with Dawn, Aftermath, DevilMakesThree and Shylock Psydoll, if you're gonna come now seeing as these dates are all in N.I. now, better get ya ass in gear!!
  5. Sorry, was in Finland at a race meeting. Yes, yer a wretch, that's why we like you so much. And proof that you're a wretch is evident in that I posted the dates and sailings we're getting on the 2nd page of this thread, some time ago. Wretch!
  6. It's twice the protein and half the carbs... Pure undiluted sonic mayhem.
  7. Where was this held? I'd have been along in a shot!!
  8. Geee, thanks for scheduling this the exact same day that ourselves and Black Atom have our afternoon One-Up instore performance and CD launch party at the Lemon Tree...!! Beh.
  9. Well, any promo is good promo. The way I see it, if it catches the attention of one person and they think "Hmmm, might go along to that", then it's been worth it. Thus far, the EE has treated us well enough, bar using a photo of an old-lineup. They did the following last year, after I emailed them to let them know about our local Damned and Misfits support slots : What is in the article isn't *exactly* what I said and or how I said it on the phone, but the jist is there and he didn't write anything that was purely untrue. Maybe the article did nothing to further attendance at either gig, but it did no harm at all. I know that we have a very keen and loyal 15-20 year old fanbase who come to our shows and spend their hard-earned money on our merchendise, and I'd imagine that most of those would have a cursory glance at least through their parent's EE (looking for the TV guide, maybe) and hopefully notice the feature on us. Maybe not, but as a band we lost nothing in having the article, and I don't doubt that most of the readership thought "weird looking people and not my choice of music". But, at least they looked and considered us even for a second! We don't expect to attract mainstream attention from such local exposure... Who would?! So, I will be getting in touch with them again around our support of the Misfits in Ireland next month, and the subsequent mini-album launch in August as part of the Summer of Fat at Fat Hippy Records. Hopefully together they will warrant another feature, and it might help us sell some CDs and fill the Lemon Tree a little more, and also might further the reputation of Fat Hippy Records and their efforts towards locally originated music.
  10. Thanks for coming along and for the kind comments. I thought we started pretty good, but got pretty shonky after I busted the string and had to tune/use my spare. Ne'r mind though, next gig we play here will be the CD launch in August, and we'll be well on form for that one. We also have the gig with the Misfits in Belfast to look forward to in a couple of weeks time... Rock!
  11. Oh yeah, flights to Belfast are still cheap enough with easyJet from Glasgow... C'mon, it's the MISFITS.
  12. Well, there you have it.... I stand corrected. Rock.
  13. Not a wise move, which people who know Paul or have seem him drum can vouch for!
  14. Well, go here : http://www.numan.co.uk/clouds/numusic.html And listen to the end track titled "I Can't Breathe" from Gary's "Pure" album. Fantastic stuff from the man who pioneered industrial music!
  15. Dunno. It will be what it will be, and if you come then you pay us 1/6th the cost. It doesn't have to be right then and there, just as long as we get it before too long after coming back. It's a diesel transit van, so shouldn't be bad at all. The new transits are pretty quick and frugal at the same time.
