betamax

It didnt work though....

also.... Michelle McManus , Pete Doherty, Gareth Gates and unburied cat shit

Keith Harris and Orville are also further up the scale than Phil fucking Collins

I even respect Sting, Michael Jackson and The Krankies more than Phil Collins Fanfuckingdabbyfuckingdozy

*borrows CD from Grandma and plays it* I have no respect for Phil Collins I have more respect for dogshit I hate his fucking drumming

a proco rat sounds good on bass

This is the last TV gig in Aberdeen for quite a while so to them people what keep saying they wanna check us out, this is probably a good time, before we vanish for ages (to finish recording an album, working title ''ASDA Shelf Life'') Ciao

web sites are a sell out and blatant self promotion ours will be funktional sometime in August* *maybe/depends**

Ive got a casio that has a lovely 'flute' preset on it That would make you shit and puke simultaneously I imagine *looks for a 'shitting' smilie*

then they would have to change the name to colon space openbracket which is actually better imo

just to clarify> we (sharon and me) totally dig but the idea that something is just genius because it has synths in it instead of guitars or any other instrument is bollocks a band can have all the technology in the world and be total shit fortunatley in the case of this is not the case edit: when i write colon openbracket it does an auto

the most accessable instrument now, is actually a pc with a souncard and a freeware synth - much more instant and easier to figure out than a guitar

I hope thats what he meant

yup, and Sparks, Kraftwerk, Cabaret Voltaire, Deutsch American Freundshcaft etc Even David Bowie had a go Sequenced synths being randomised live is nothing new but it sounds good....it was all expensive hardware driven for a while, but now its more affordable in the form of laptops, Ive seen some London bands do it and its kinda good, but really its the bands music your hearing and it actually wont matter if its played on a Casio or Les Paul - if its shite its shite, if its cool its cool The whole ''synths replacing guitars'' discussion is void tho, I play both and its like saying beans will replace fried eggs...its been said before and it was bollocks then In fact in the early 80s, synths and drum machines were much more widely used in commercial pop than guitars and drums were, the 90s was the opposite and now we've gotta bit of both

I dig the stuff Ive heard so far, but I like everything Marts done Hopefully there will be gigs???

or alternatively come to another TV gig and we might have some cdS next one - and prob last one of the summer is likely to be the Arkade projects night at the end of July at Cellar 35 we should have a website running soon with dowloadable shit shit shit shit

....apparently some people did actually want CDs, but there was none available on the night cos id left them in the wrong bag (spazz) ill easy send some out via the royal male if said people of ace taste wanna pm me a postal address word

the new WEM digital copycat does all the delay stuff like proper dub reggae stuff ive got one but its not for sale but I dooo rekommend it....even though its a bit erratic for live use its good in the stoodio like does what the tape copycat did but without the tapes basically
