Hey Kids,
hope you're all good.
We just went out for an amazing traditional Japanese dinner with our Record label, Triple Vision. We went for an 8 hour walk around Tokyo today and it is truly the most incredible place. Every niche and every culture is embraced here and nobody is judged or criticised. Its awesome!
Our first show is tomorrow and we just met the other bands we're playing with. They all seem really nice, and we're almost gonna feel bad out-rocking them (haha jokes).
Miss you all...
Jon.

If you haven’t checked it out yet, i have no idea why not.
I can’t understand you to be honest.
Look at our Japanese website setup by our record company
over there!

http://www.48May.jp/

It’s the bomb. I can understand at least 4 and half words
on that page.

Also, check out some photos from some of the displays our
awesome company Triple Vision has done for us over there:

(look at the first one: "Emo" - YAY! :D )








I know the one you like, the one with us in the ’Punk/Hardcore’ section.
Right?
Am i right?

Knew it.

Hey gang,

just a quick blog to say we're really sorry about our sudden Taupo show cancellation.

I came down with a pretty nasty case of bronchitis rendering me completely unable to hit the crucial high C in our cover of Mariah Carey's smash hit 'Dreamlover'.

Actually I couldn't hit any notes at all so we had no choice but to pull out of the show.

So again, we're really sorry to anyone that bought tickets or was planning to go- we promise we'll make it up to you.

And a big thanks to Spacifix who filled the space at such short notice.

Lots of sickly and contagious kisses,

Jon.

Current mood:  exhausted
So after HOURS.. should i say DAYS of trying to beat myspace code and css
into submission i have given the 48May "MaySpace" page a make-over.
It took about 30mins to design in photoshop and about 5 days trying to actually
implement so it also didn't look bad in most browsers.

At this point i have to say Internet Explorer 6's lack of support for transparency
in png's and not following other CSS standards of background images being fixed etc,
is enough to make me wanna shoot someone. The CSS hacks and workarounds
i had to do to get PNG's to work properly wouldn't have been so bad if i also didn't
have to try get around myspace's restrictive use of code.

Enough blah blah though. As far as i've tested,
(Safari, IE6, Firefox on Windows and Mac), the page looks PRETTY much how it should.

I still haven't done the blog section and i may get to that soon but for now,
i'm done trying to deal with myspace's disgusting code.

Enjoy! :D

Hahahha.
