THIS IS SWEETCHUNKS! 300 likes!

Hi Chaps!
               So empires have risen and crumbled, seas have dried up and mountains worn to dust since the last update. So I thought it best to post something.

First of all a big thanks to everyone who helped us get to 300 likes on FB and kept us at No 1 on reverbnation.
That shit be phat Yo!

We've been playing a fuck ton and we havent even finished our first year, and it's been going on a steady rise of awesomeness, Towards some sort of Joy based event, (preferably with an en suite and decent tea and coffee making facilities). 
The Gigasaurus (our mouldy fiat Brava) has traveled many miles, with Ash at the wheel, Kept awake only by the prospect of Stu passing out and tipping cider over himself, along our many journeys across the tan line of London (also known as the m25). 
We have become familiar with the many great service stations of this land, to the point where we actually have preferences, and aim for services with KFC's (There is nothing like hungover KFC)*1

And we have established that if left unattended,Charlie and Mike will disappear into the nearest set of woods and not return until all of the drugs In a 20 mile radius are gone and they have been awake for at least 72 hours.

But god damn it they will still go on stage afterwards! (after 30 bloody Mary's and a pig's worth of bacon).

As a group we have drunk together, sung together, sat quietly while Stu has hissy fits together, staggered round this great land at arse-o'clock in the morning looking for food together, danced on tables, screaming song lyrics because the PA exploded together, emptied entire bottles of tequila in the name of science together and realised: this is what being in a band is meant to be, and we are having the time of our fucking lives!

Thanks to everyone who has helped and is helping us to continue this mad tangent filled carnival!

Ash, Charlie, Mike & Stu
Xx




*1 Incidentally, if KFC ever want free advertising, all they have to give us is free KFC for life and we will be the colonels finger lickin' bitch!

Once more into the studio dear friends!

Broadsword calling Danny boy....
Broadsword calling Danny boy...

Well here we are again, writing inane gibberish for 6 people in Russia, a few lost surfers and you with your morbid curiosity....

First of all a massive thanks to those who attended RockstoneAID on Saturday and a big "go and fuck a gun barrel" to the couple who complained it was "rather loud and crowded" it's a Saturday night.. In a pub! you agoraphobic hermit snail!

Other than that though it was a great evening and a big thanks to all my chums from the SCB and Bemis who gave up their time to play.

Anyways as the title dictates Ash, Darryl Thomas and I will be going at the studio like drunks at a cocktail menu *

We shall be re recording my solo EP, giving it more oomph, and paying someone to make us sound good.

After its recorded we should be able to get it on iTunes and spread it about like the clap!

Now I must leave...
Burton is on and Clint has just started killing Nazis!




*With gusto, but forever worrying about the price....

Ps five points if you got the film reference..

New EP

What Ho crackers!
                            Well I have a New Ep out Called No Frills. Mainly because I have no money spent all my money on the recording.and have nothing left for album art and c.d reproduction. So each album is hand "pressed" myself. so it's more authentic..... that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

It feature four choons:

Devil at the Door
Chips whiskey and gold
Portsdown hill
Drink up.

It's £3 incidentally.
