Hello fellow bloggers.....
Thought I should write a little something as it's been a while. We've been writing and recording hard for the last couple of weeks... we've got a load of new songs on the way and we're also working on making our little documentary for our recent tour... so hopefully we'll have new songs and a new video for your eyes and ears very soon!
Some other good news is that I finally bought the coat I've been trying to find for about six months! So that's exciting....

We're back home in Swindon now...after spending ten days on the road we're pretty knackered and glad to be home, although we're off to Portsmouth tonight to play with Underground Heroes at Eastney Cellars. Looking like it's sold out already so it should be a good one! We took loads of video while we were away so we'll be turning that into a hilarious yet insightful and thought-provoking tour documentary pretty soon. Thanks to everyone who came along.
Now we're looking forward to getting down to writing some new material and talking about future releases and tours...

We're in a luxurious Glaswegian Premier Inn room having a nice chill out session, watching X Factor and sippin' on an ice cool Bud. It's Adam's birthday today and we saw the night in in appropriate fashion...by getting far too messy in Whitehaven at a place called Gallagher's.... unfortunately we didn't see Noel or Liam.
We've had a good few nights, we've never been to Scotland so it's been nice to see the beautiful scenery and the grim weather. We're playing here in Glasgow tomorrow night, then Dundee and Edinburgh before coming back home to sunny England.
Anyway, our internet access is about to run out so we'll update this as soon as we can...

We're on tour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We're staying with Adam's brother near Nottingham after playing at Club NME in Derby...me and Charlie are sharing a bed again, it's a bit too cosy for comfort this time....especially when he's suffering from 'Nando's wind' and being excessively hairy.
Last night we played Manchester Ruby Lounge, what a nice venue. Massive thankyou to Lucy for letting us stay with her and for introducing us to the film Dig. We had a little wander around Manchester during the day, Adam bought a good coat and Charlie bought a half-decent hat. I didn't buy anything.
Now it's time for bed...it's getting late and we're sleepy.

I'm sat in my dressing gown having just woken up after the first three days of our first ever tour... over the weekend we've played in Bristol, Bath and Cardiff. All of the gigs have been miles better than we expected (mind you, our expectations are about as low as they can get) and we've met some really nice people along the way too.
We've been getting loads of video while we've been away, we're going to put it all together and make a nice little tour documentary once we've back home at the start of October.
Now we've got two days resting time...then we head up to Manchester on Wednesday for the big leg of the tour!

Just had a nice sweaty rehearsal... getting everything ready for our tour which, by the way, starts in less than a week! We've been working hard to get some new songs ready to play on tour, we've finally got a few in good enough condition to whack in the set so we're even more excited to get going now...just need to get Charlie's vaccinations sorted then we're ready to go.
Go to our website to look at all the dates, it would be nice to see some friendly faces out on the road...

So me and Adam are sat playing Farmville on Facebook after a successful rehearsal while Charlie's in the shower...we've finished writing a new song and, more importantly, jammed through the whole of Green Day's Dookie. Sweaty Betty.
Up early again tomorrow for a bit of recording, maybe work on some new stuff, maybe work on some old stuff...who knows.

Good morning sports fans!
Welcome to our new blog, which we'll hopefully update pretty regularly to let you know what's going on with us...
So yesterday we played at a pub in the thriving party district that is Cerney Wick, and although I left work at 1 and didn't get there until 1 45 (when we were due to play at 2) it went alright...sold some CDs and got a free burger then got back to work by half 3, just in time to see The Wurzels playing outside...I'm still not really sure why, but their cover of Don't Look Back In Anger was a bit weird.
So now we're getting ready for our tour in September, we've been working hard to get some new songs sorted for it. If you want to come along to a gig have a look at www.thealfonz.com, that's got everything you could possibly want.
Until next time
