IT'S OVER. (The Year, that is)

Done and dusted. 2008 is over and we sent it out in style by rockin' it up with Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster in Manchester.

Although the night started out damn awfully as we got to our practice rooms where we keep all our stuff when we're not making noise with it to find it was totally locked up and we didn't have any keys or phone numbers to assist getting it open. So armed with only two guitars, a foot pedal and some rusty old cymbals we turned up to the venue and after a series of well-aimed begs, were able to borrow pretty much everything off a lovely trio of gents in a band named Scar - www.myspace.com/scartheband check it.

We went on at like 9:30 the room (smelling of a mixture of sewage and insence) was surprisingly packed even though we had been thrown on the downstairs stage. It was probably one of our most solid performances and we very much enjoyed getting out there and talking to people afterwards too. Many many thanks to Phil for the sound on the night and to everyone that was down there watching us.

2009 is sure to throw up some good times, for instance; in about 14 hours time we'll be recording our EP and at some point in the year we'll be touring this fair country to hurt ears in new places. We've got other plans and other things will surely happen that aren't planned as of yet. Sack it though, just join in and we'll take everything as it happens. It's gonna be FUUUUUUN!
