Hi all, In answer to Stuart's reply - well, I'm NOT at the moment. Any idea who I would be best to contact re arranging this? My first call would have been good old (Dr) Drakes (RIP) but that's not an option. It's an interesting position - I don't have any contacts apart from this BB. By the way: we're not fussy - we're looking to gig & have a damn good time

Hi, it's me I'm back. I'm looking to set up a little gig when Gustav Bertha (re: Night By The Fire, 1st Nov 2003) is in town. Venues and contacts have moved on in 3 years it seems! Contact me via PM here or www.myspace.com/thefamilysimpson (there's some sample tracks up there too) Thanks in advance for all help! Ian

I've been quite interested in this for a while now. Only just submitted the 3 tracks via sonicbids.com (quite a good site for electronic press kits - see The Family Simpson-Sonicbids EPK for an example). Last year Chris Difford from Squeeze, King Creosote and about 10 other songwriters toured around Dumfries - Stirling after spending a few days together writing songs. Sounds an alright prize! Only drawback - 10 entry fee.

Much appreciated Mr Cynic! It's on me birthday list.... *dreams*

Alan, what delay pedal do you have. I want one badly! Brilliant gig on Friday - absolutely bloody marvellous. I'm still raving about it.

sounds a great line up - i salute your taste and your charitable nature (we're still all hypocrites though) xxx

anywhere the tunes can be downloaded? - myspace just streams... bah.

Tis 'The Geese' - I keep forgetting!

Can you blush on these forums? I'm sure you can... Anyway - thanks - and David, there's a new CD from Alan which I'm sure he'd love to pass onto you soon - sounds 1,000,000 times better than my stuff - been working with Pete McConnville etc. - sounds folky as heck, but with a twist. You'd love it.

Hah! I recorded a tune just for you. Honest. OK, a re-make. ( I got sick of the old version ) http://www.myspace.com/thefamilysimpson Irn Bru 2006 It's got accordion!! Insect Rock... rocks. I love the homespun recording industry pic. Change nTrack to Adobe Audition and get rid of the amp and that's my set up too! When's your next CD due Mr Blastcap?

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Hi Chris, Sorry to hear that - bloody coincidence as it's one of the few times I'm on this site and I see this post?! Hope it's just a short break - I really enjoyed your CDs, videos (yes, I've seen it - Jon posted me a link earlier in the year) and the few gigs I saw. All the best to everyone, Ian

What a beautiful line up.... hmm... supposed to be at a wedding.... but.......... Great gig to get Alan - well done!!

Well done Frosty!

Hey Hog, how's it going? Sounds like you've got plenty tips to keep you going... but... If you know the tempo and time sequence change the Audition view from mm:ss to beats and bars (View menu-> Display Time Format -> Beats & Bars). Might make it easier to pinpoint the splits and if you have snap (snap to frames) switched on it makes cutting the file a piece of piss. Sounds blimmin weird that Capt. Toms does it that way, but each to their own eh? Glad Audition is getting used!

a gig??..... hmmmm nice idea.....
