We won an Audio Storm award for Best Breakthrough act at the prestigious awards ceremony this evening. The first of many such gongs, no doubt.
Glam Chops are busy writing new material in preparation for phase II of the group. We emerge in the Spring with a new member or two, more spangly outfits, more high kicks.. and a few surprises too.
Dan and Stu's campaign on Facebook to get Glam Chops on Eurovision 2010 is gathering momentum, with NME the latest subscriber. the group is just shy of 1,000 members already - and there's still 15 months to Eurovision 2010... Our good pal Dave Purr has made a spangly banner with our Terry sporting an Aladdin Sane make up flash... We will post the code here so you can add it too. meantime, there's a rather nice pic of the image as our main pic you're welcome to steal...
See you in the Spring.

Some nice chaps Stu and Dan in Bournemouth contacted us to say they have set up a Facebook campaign to get Glam Chops as the UK's representative at Eurovision 2010 here -
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=43752387555&ref=ts
Or just search "Glam Chops For Eurovision" in facebook
They have about 750 members so far. If you believe it would be mad (in a good way) having Glam Chops at Eurovision then follow the link and sign up, maybe even press the "+SHARE" option and have the group posted on your news feed, It'd be hilarious if someone in the media were to get hold of this and campaign for it too.......... this means you, Moyle..s and co. maybe.. Moyles and co could be our dance..rs in the contest, you know like legs and co, but with chris moyles.
iN OTHER.. NEWS,.. we may be doing.. one or two gigs in May. Stay tuned.. for detai..ls!
Don'..t be glum,..

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!!
Glam Chops' first year in 'the business' has been a lot of fun. Thanks to everyone who came out to see us, downloaded our music, spread the word, shouted "Hey!" a lot. You made us like it.
We worked out that if our free download Christmas single had been a proper release we'd have been number 18 in the Christmas chart - and surely an appearance on Top Of The Pops guaranteed! - but we still maintain that this music should have been a gift to you, our fans. . . . . although we might charge you 79p for NEXT Christmas's Glam Chops single. ;)
Glam Chops are now in the studio writing more HITS and will not resurface until April/May time when we will have an all new show.
We are not booking in any gigs except for festival bookings at the moment.
Eddie, meanwhile, can be seen with his 'other band' Art Brut, Mikey is still gigging as Mr Solo or fronting David Devant & His Spirit Wife, Stuffy plays in Graham Coxon's band, Tim can be found promoting the excellent Purr club in Bath (with the Panther Girls regularly dancing there) and Paul hosts the Rough Trade Shops Pop Quiz at the Lexington every Monday as well as playing in Dream Themes and running the Guided Missile club nights at the Buffalo Bar, London N1.
See you in the Spring!

With the spiraling interglobal recession showing no signs of improvement, GLAM CHOPS (Glam Rock supergroup featuring Eddie Argos of Art Brut, The Vessel – singer of David Devant & His Spirit Wife) and their label Guided Missile, have made a joint decision to give their Christmas single away to their fans FOR FREE in a bid to get the nation smiling once again.
"Glam Rock first time around happened during a recession and was all about feeling good and getting away from it all. There's definitely a Glam Rock revival on the cards and Great Britain needs it more than ever. The tracks are so good and we probably would have scored a minor hit with the single, but Glam Chops wanted to react to the current situation of everyone being too broke to afford anything but food and drink, and they begged me to release the single for free. We even went so far as to look into the possibility of going ahead with the 7" pressing and leaving handfuls of them in the shops, but in the end we stuck with the idea of having both tracks as a free download from Glam Chops' Myspace page. We swallowed the recording costs in the name of Glam and will be making the single "Countdown To Christmas" b/w "Baby Jesus Was The First Glam Rocker" free to all on the Glam Chops site at www.myspace.com/paranoiddogbark from 1st December." - Paul Kearney, Guided Missile Recordings.
