Holidays in the Waterloo Sunset

Last night was good fun. The neighbours either side of the Singapora lounge complained about the noise, apparently it's the first time they've ever had a noise complaint. We turned down a little bit and carried on. We once got a written noise complaint in response to a show we did at a youth club. It read "It was more 'The Sex Pistols' than 'The Kinks'. The noise was horrendous". I'd like to think that they had a similar thought last night. Rochester itself is a lovely place.

Some People are Girls, Get Over It

We have a few shows coming up over the half term break (if you still live by that holiday system!). Tonight we are playing a Halloween show in Rochester, Kent at the Singapora Lounge, and next week, we are doing a weekender with Death Pedals!

Mint.

Bergkamp

We have a rather mint show happening this Friday night [31st August] at Ryans Bar in Stoke Newington. Hawks from the United States of America and Ginola from The Republic of Ireland will be playing, as will both us and Hag. It will be a night full of great music and lovely people so don't miss out.

See you on Friday.

Tactic Al Bailey

I think this video was shot at our all dayer last October. We went on first, because we're nice like that. The song is Tactic A which is on our split with A Clean Kitchen is a Happy Kitchen. It was shot by our pal Al Bailey.

I Won't Let You Let Me Down

We did an interview for Cock and Bull TV podcast in Dublin back in April. We played lots of rad stuff like Nitkowski, Shield Your Eyes, Death Pedals, Sex Pistols and Phil and Gareth insisted on some Lionel Richie. I would have had Queen's Death on Two Legs but Lionel won. Here it is Cock and Bull TV
*apologies for my poorly constructed sentences. If you have a foreign first language, then "The Sex Pistols got us formed" is not a proper sentence. What I meant was "We formed because of the Sex Pistols". What a dick I am.

And Wooderson have put up their new record for pre order, you can stream it here. It's rad.

The Hornless

This is one of my favourite records ever. Some people confuse it with the tight jeans movement, but they are wrong, this is just bass and keyboard driven aceness. And I love the fact that the bassist is called Russell White (very nearly the same name as mine).
