hey hey,

Living it up large on the West Coast-

Sold out early at the Setters tavern In Margaret River, quite a big deal for us- sorry to all those that missed out!

Been good to see some familiar faces and catch up with some of the friends we've seen on tour, cheers to all those who have come to the shows so far.

Bumped into John Butler at the "Gypsy tapas" gig, was a bit of a trip...

Looking forward to playin at the Deen and Mojos Next week- Hope to see the whole WA crew represented!

Here's a link to some music from a Jam we had at our promoter Phoebi's house the other day if your keen to hear it

Current mood:  anxious
Writing by Charles Bukowski in its entirety:

often it is the only
thing
between you and
impossibility.
no drink,
no woman's love,
no wealth
can
match it.
nothing can save
you
except
writing.
it keeps the walls
from
failing.
the hordes from
closing in.
it blasts the
darkness.
writing is the
ultimate
psychiatrist,
the kindliest
god of all the
gods.
writing stalks
death.
it knows no
quit.
and writing
laughs
at itself,
at pain.
it is the last
expectation,
the last
explanation.
that's
what it
is.writing

http://www.freeonlinedocumentary.com/node/118 worth checking out if you've got the time,Shows how international lending, structural adjustment policies and free trade affect the day-to-day realities of the people whose lives they impact. Focusing on the lives of ordinary workers & farmers on the island of Jamaica, this film contends that free-trade is of greatest benefit to the rich. cheers

Current mood:  accomplished
To be honest i didn't think we'd get there...

Somehow through all the late nights, tears and long drinking sessions we finally pulled 12 tracks together.

The madness is on us for real

Right now i'm not even sure how it sounds, I've heard every song at least 1000 times and all i can say is they seem to be a chopped up messed up abstract fantasy of the sideways reality we are hurtling ourselves through daily. from the darkest depth of our minds to the flittering butterfly style good times... it's all there


So now all that's left is to enjoy the summer and i intend to use every bit of these fine days in complete frivolity...
cheers to all we've been hangin with up and down the coast so far this summer
.

I've got my guitar a few new songs and a full belly, that'll do for now
Love ya work
i'm headin to the pub





come see us play soon hey

what's up?

man we been workin hard....

cruisin from gig to gig generally with out sleep and slightly sideways (we seem to perform better this way...)

Every gig of late's been a highlight, special thanks to all that were at the New Town fest- pretty damn big crowd for us, felt a bit like a rock star... ha

One of the perks of this Job would have to be visiting all the quaint little towns and chracters of Aus- First time in Yamba the other week and one of the biggest weekends for too long- Haven't seen Shannon that sideways before and enjoyed every minute of it-cheers Yamba great gig great town...

Few set backs on the new Cd front.we had one hard drive fail, i managed to drop another and finally spilt wine on my mac book, all in the peroid of about a week. Clumsy fucker i am- we lost some of our favorite tunes. No point crying over spilt milk i guess. Still aiming to have it done by woodford fest...

 

anyway, i'll stop ramblin on

 

cheers!
