City of Angels....

Pull the Pin is coming to a end, we have five shows left before we head back to home soil and start the next mission - Decade In The Sun, The Best Of. We got a bunch of stuff happening to kick it off so make sure you check back regularly to get the info. Also the look of
the website will be changing very shortly so don't be shocked it's just the look of it, everything else will be exactly the same.

So on with the roundup of the last month or so (if i can remember that far back). Festivals, that's right. Nearly every one in Europe it felt like. Big ones, small ones, any ones which would have us really. Had a good run ending with the V festival in Toronto which was a blast. Fun times, met up with Oasis and Paul Weller the day before for a curry. Think we all had the Buna Gosht!

Then down the east coast, NYC and the Webster Hall. That was one ofthe best gigs we've ever done, up there in the top 5 for us I wouldsay. Everything just seemed to click into place. Washington, Philadelphia and Chicago then and then out to L.A. for a photo session out in the desert somewhere... Sometimes you've got to suffer for your art!

And now... just waiting on the gig here in L.A. to kick off. Got some big names coming down, allegedly Dave Grohl, Marilyn Manson, Rod Stewart and our good friends Steve Gorman and Chris Robinson from the Black Crowes. We'll see. Hey, you might just read about it in the papers or hear about it on Moyles show in the morning.

Till next time.

I saw you guys last weekend in Chicago and the show was awesome! I can't the sound levels were set up the best to hear you guys over the mesh of electroinc sounds overlapping eachother but I knew the songs so it was cool! The warm up band People in Planes were GREAT! Good find guys! The whole show kicked ass! Come back soon!

PS How the hell did you guys keep those leather jackets on the whole show without melting in there? haha

I loved the NYC show Rich. Great mix of old and new, thought it would have been nice to hear more from Pull The Pin since only two new songs were played. I was wondering perhaps, it was just that the US was getting there hands on the release of that album that day, but I think the last two records for Stereophonics has been your best yet and keep making them that way. Good luck and Cheers! Matt ~ Readjunk. com

Rich, you guys definitely need to come back to LA! The Nokia theater downtown is pretty rad acoustic wise :).
Whether you're on tour with Manson or the Black Crows, I'll be there!

Thanks again for taking the time to sign my vinyl :).
You are sooo nice! That's definitely going up on my wall!!!!

Hugs,

5 shows left? Awwww man what happened to Smalls? I know Kelly was sick, but I thought you guys would have came back. Thanks for nothing, and for ruining my hopes of seeing you live. Well ok then, I still listen to your music, but that doesn't mean that I'm not mad about it. I guess I'll see you guys if you decide to come back to the Burgh. Have fun on the rest of your tour.

-Thanks much- =(

Rich-

Regarding L.A., it was a scorching set, you guys were brilliant. Sorry for yelling at you so much (yes, that was me and my dousche bag friend from New York in front but we REALLY, REALLY wanted to hear Pull the Pin. It's the best record you guys have done, I really think so. We were so excited to hear it live. You don't play in Los Angeles but once every blue moon so it was important to us.


How could it not be in your best interest to play Los Angeles more often?

Also, I have to add... People in Planes was a really great opening band!!

2) it was the best concert I've ever been to in my entire life
3) I freakin' love you even more.
