Southsea

So last saturday the time had arrived for our drummer to show what he is made of! could he handle a show with elephants? often plagued by danger and heckling! and with deans bass breaking the day before (thanks marty for helping us out with a bass) and a 7 hour car ride to southsea (it should have taken 2 hours!!) things did not look good.

But it was a total success. Joe did us proud and we smashed it. New songs going down a treat. Although we missed our new label mates UTE we arrived in time to see shoes and socks who played a corker. Needless to say the BSM/Alcopop showcase was the place to be. And we now have a new favourite band called &U&I! (http://www.myspace.com/andyouandimusic)

Oh and an elephants show wouldn't be the same without some drama. There was almost a fight after Pulled Apart by horses! The guy had a very punchable face. I think even his friend wanted to punch him. But although he called Jack-pop "wurzel gummage" (worst insult ever) a fight was avoided and we got back to our hotel in time to watch match of the day!

I think Southsea is my new favourite festival! You should all go next year!

First Show With A New Line-up!

SO yeah as you know we have a new line-up and we're gonna be back with a bang this weekend. Joe is gonna get a real baptism of fire! We're playing the Alcopop/BSM stage at southsea fest.

We're playing along side some of our friends and favourite bands like stagecoach and UTE. But also with the awesome Pulled Apart By Horses. And with new songs under our belt we're fucking excited to be back playing live!

Hope to see lots of friendly faces on Saturday!
