Thanks to everyone who has bought a copy!

We are pretty much sold out of our first run in One up and so far sales are really good.

Weve not had much time to hit up press and labels etc but will be doing so shortly.

When i get some reviews / comments ill get them up here.

Any feedback from any of you guys specific to any songs or anything etc is also welcome - were sending out press packs next week and at the moment im using a certain three songs - maybe im wrong!

All feedback welcome.

Were now playing DHC on the July 9th date - we will be playing 80% of the album then LIVE at around 10pm

TOBY SENT ME THIS TODAY:

We are being used on the 19th of August for Vic Galloway's back of the net feature.

Basically we get played on his show and featured on his website and people get told to go to our Myspace to download "One more Time" for free.

I had to introduce the track and our band and I also got to mention that people could come and watch us at the Wizard festival too.

cool.

Ace - well done dude!

What slot have you guys got at Wizard? And do you have a drummer to play??

And more importantly, are you joining the Underkills for an acoustic sing-song in the campsite again!?

We dont know what slot yet im afraid.

We have a drummer - a fine one he is too - early days!

And aye, singalong sounds fine.

How many times will you drop your plectrum though...?

Our track " We Came Alive" is used on the latest Jim Gellatly podcast - on Itunes - names episode 44 with a wee blurb about the band accompanying it.

Also, look out in January time for use of The Little Kicks interview / live footage in an ITV drama! Footage of us has been used / picked up to be used in the background of a scene of ITV drama / comedy (tbc) " Married, Single, Other" next year. Details are pretty sketchy but its basically a scene where two kids / a family are meant to be watching MTV and its us on their telly. Whether you can hear audio / whether its tiny in the backgound - we dont know! But well keep an eye out for it, pretty random and small thing to add to the bio.
