Hey everyone!

 ....

It’s been a while since our last blog, but now we are back with our most exciting news yet!

 ....

We have finished writing our debut album, but we have not recorded it yet. As a band we decided not to work with a record label anymore so that we could have more control over our own music.

 ....

Record label’s traditionally pay for Bands to make an album, and then they “own” the album that the artist makes. Instead we have teamed up with an awesome company called Bandstocks, which allows bands to connect directly with fans so that by raising money together, YOU can own part of the Stiff Dylans album!

 ....

So for the price of an album, you will get a copy of the album to listen to, AND a share in The Stiff Dylans album….including any profits!!!

 ....

This is a big chance for you guys to be a part of our CD.

 ....

So for £10 you will get:-

A digital download of the Stiff Dylans Album

A share in the Album’s profits. (the more £10 shares you buy, the more of our album you will own).

Your name printed inside the physical album cover.

 ....

On top of this, for becoming a part of our Bandstocks family, we will personally be giving you:-

Free song download’s that will not be available to anyone else

Free Videos that will not be available to anyone else

Personal thanks from us, The Stiff Dylans.

Priority Gig tickets for any live shows.

 ....

Here’s what you need to know

Sign up at….. www.bandstocks.com


The website says you need to be 15 or over to pre-order our album. It only ask’s you to input your Date Of Birth once, and there is no proof required…..so if you are under 15 we cannot encourage you to lie about your age….but we certainly can’t stop you either! :-P

Or alternatively you can get a Parent to do it for you.

 ....

We really want our fans from outside the UK to be a part of our album as well, and we have found a way to make it happen (because Bandstocks is UK only). We will be setting up a fanclub, which anyone in the World can become a member of for the one off joining fee of £10. Once you are a member of this fanclub, you will get a free digital download of the album, and your name written on the inside of the physical album sleeve.

 ....

Every single one of you makes a difference, and if we don’t raise enough money to record the album, then it can’t be made. If this happens and you DID invest, you will be given your money back IN FULL. But obviously we are hoping everyone will get involved and we will have enough money to pay for the album to be made!

 ....

There has never been a more important time for The Stiff Dylan’s and our fans. There is literally just YOU GUY’s and the 4 of us now, no record labels, no industry bigwig’s. So without you we truly are nothing.

 ....

Stiff Dylans + Great Fan’s = Great Music For Everyone

Hey everyone

it has been a little while since we were last on the road, and we have been taking some much needed rest. But after bucket loads of emails and comments asking us to come and gig in different places, we have finally found a way that we can make it happen. So no matter where you are in the world, now is your chance to see us live!

here is how it works!

go to the all new, fantastic website www.owngig.com
once you sign up there you can request to see all kinds of different acts, including us!
you tell them how much you can afford to pay to see us live, (be realistic though, don't say a million quid if you can only afford 10 Pounds!) and you also tell them how far you would be willing to travel to our show.

It costs a lot of money to put on shows unfortunately, and the further away from the south of England we go, the more it costs, but if we get enough pledges from fans to make a show happen, we can come and play anywhere in the world! So make sure you get as many of your friends to do it as you can too!

I hope that made sense! so remember, if you want to see us play live, go to www.owngig.com and demand that we get to a town near you!

we can't wait to hear from you and see you all at some shows soon.
Love as always

Matt, James, Tom and Charlie

PS
PLEASE DO NOT JUST MESSAGE OR COMMENT US WITH WHERE YOU WANT US TO COME, WE LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU BUT FOR YOUR VOTE TO COUNT YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS WEBSITE AND REQUEST US TO COME TO YOUR TOWN!

Shout out to all our fans on Myspace

It is with regret that we have to announce the cancellation of our show on the 18th December at Islington Academy in London. We hate to have to do this, but we now have essential promotional commitments that mean we cannot play on that date. We hope to rearrange the London show for some time in the new year, but at this point you need to get refunds for your tickets from where you bought them.

Thanks for your ace support, and don't forget we play Luton on Saturday 6th December and that's not too far from London, in fact their airport claims to be in London.......

Hey Hey you sexy people!

a quick blog for you to tell you all about our latest quest!!!

We have had a LOT of people email us asking if we have merchandise, such as band t shirts etc etc, and we've always had to say no......but we thought about it, and we decided that a lot of bands do t shirts and stuff....but how many bands have their own clothing line????......

so guess what we have done? yes thats right! We created our own clothing line!

at our up coming gigs we will be selling the first installment of limited edition
T shirts from "Stiff Trading LTD"!!!

The limited edition shirts have song titles in very groovy designs on them. The first of these limited edition shirts is for our live favourite new song...Rock Night.

This could be the only chance to get one of these, and we think they look great! so look out for them at the shows!

hope you like them! see you soon! we cant wait!

Matt, James, Charlie and Tom
XXXXXXX
