Listen up folks - if you live in any of the following places, then literally the BEST TOUR EVER is coming to rock, roll, and indeed folk you right in the face as we bring you:

Exclamati:On Tour, August 2009

Friday 21st August - The Parish, Huddersfield
Saturday 22nd August - driving and sleeping, unless anyone has any offers
Sunday 23rd August - Drift Bar, Portsmouth


The lineup is pretty fluid (ie: we're taking it in turns to headline to soothe our massive egos*) and some of the dates we'll be playing with local supports/local headliners, so come down nice and early to get the most fun out of your evening.


We'll have copies of the split for sale, some special limited !@*# badges, stickers and more - come see us at the merch stand after, buy some stuff and have a drink with us.


OT



*not really, we'll probably be more likely to fight over who gets to go on first so they can spend the rest of the night getting wasted.

Boom boom boom, let me hear you say "way-oo" ......................

Afternoon all - if you haven't already done so, please take a few moments out of your afternoon to preorder the new split between me, Ben Marwood, and Jim Lockey:

Amazon.co.uk or Hmv.com for us lot in the UK....................or Amazon.com for anyone in the US.

Thanks :)


Also, there's some bloody great photos of last week's Swindon gig at : Flickr.com...........check em out.


Finally, from the very same evening of sweaty fun as the above, comes this video of me being incredibly unprofessional and giggling like a loon at a roomful of people yelling "GOLD!". Good times:




Until next time....

Woo!

Righty, I started a blog earlier this year...but I've been a bit rubbish with it...........probably because noone's been reading it.

So, let's change that now...click http://oxygenthiefmusic.blogspot.com/ for fun times and pics of stuff

hooray!

Hehe, that rhymes.

Wow, it's Comic Relief already - awesome. I'm playing in Stourbridge tonight, so will miss the live fun....but rest assured my Saturday is going to be spent watching it back on iPlayer, fast forwarding all the depressing bits (and by that, I mean anything with Lenny Henry in) and giggling like a chimp.

As I'm a bit too lazy to do anything proper to try and raise money, I thought I'd wang a free download link up of the 6 songs from my profile..........on the condition that you donate something to Comic Relief and/or buy a red nose (just got mine, spongy).

Sound fair?

It's a YouSendIt link, so it's up for 7 days / 100 downloads - so if 100 people download, donate at least a quid to Comic Relief, then that's enough for 20 malaria nets, or a day's cost to run a Community Cafe for people with mental health problems. Winner.

to set it downloading, and then go donate here: https://donate.comicrelief.com/donation/

Cheers all.

"The Oxygen Thief is Barry Dolan, a self-confessed Bristol resident, guitar abuser and rock addict.
Influenced by the likes of Biffy Clyro, Cursive, and Nine Inch Nails, it's no surprise that this three-track EP, 'Feed A Cold, Starve A Fever', is hard-hitting, layered and loud, despite the lack of instruments involved. First track 'Camera Shy' is the best thing here, the remaining tracks not quite living up to the acoustic shock, but there's a huge amount of potential here."


To celebrate, download the aforementioned "Camera Shy" for free until...well until I change my mind.

Kick ass

I've been having a festive tidy up & found a bunch of promo cds and samplers that I never got around to using........and rather than throwing them out I thought I'd see if anyone wants one.

So yeah, let me know your address and I'll send one via carrier pigeon.

If you fancy paying postage via Paypal then I'll chuck a badge or two in as well, but it's up to you really.

Have a messy one tonight ;)

OT

I started a new B-Log outside of the realms of Myspace...just for fun really, but I'm aiming to keep it much more up to date than usual.

Keep an eye on www.oxygenthiefmusic.com as it unfolds
