Bye Bye Brighton





Hey, have you done something different with your hair? We're playing an afternoon session at The Albert this Saturday - 12th February. It looks like this will be our last gig for a while. The perfect crime?

You want something on your feet. You'll catch your death. Bye Bye Brighton will be another sweet MatineƩ Mashup. These things have been so much fun we couldn't refuse. You get the playing live bit out of the way nice and early, then it be party time! So it'll be a groovy opportunity to say our goodbyes. http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=192784037415381

We'll be selling and giving away what we have left of an assortment of ep's, posters and books, and there might even be a pre-release version of the DVD in amongst the goodies.

So, due to circumstances beyond my control it looks like I'm leaving Brighton in a couple of weeks. The owner of the building we've recorded, rehearsed and kipped in for the last 2 / 3 years is selling the place. I'm gutted, and not looking forward to the prospect of shifting the shocking amount of gear we've accumulated over the last couple of years. But I think it will do me good to take a break from life down south for a bit.

My plan is to spend March re-reading Julian Cope biographies, drinking Guinness and Vimto and seeing what happens next. No pressure.

I tell you, seriously, we've done some really ace gigs over the last few months, and the latest batch of songs are the best we've done to date, but as we get better at doing what we do, I feel less and less pressure to prove anything.

So, if you're thirsty, have a look at our last.fm page for some fresh mixes.

Here's an interview with me, Lee and Sahara that I have absolutely no memory of doing: http://www.iranrock.com/index.php?option=com_portfolio&id=103&view=item&Itemid=95
