Hi everyone,

- firstly: just a few lines to clear-up the confusion over our no-show at the Bizarre Bazaar Acoustic Stage - I realise that there were a lot of people that wanted to see us & had to leave before our later set, so we're really sorry you didn't get to see us: basically, all it was, was with one thing & another (mainly meself trying to make sure, against all the obstacles thrown-up against us) that we all got the USA the week before! - & it weren't easy: poor oul' Wispy was stuck at Heathrow for two days solid waiting for a flight! BUT the quare fella made it - & helped us rock the bejaysus out of Dublin, Ohio - fair fucks to 'im!) I took me eye off the ball a wee bit & there was a breakdown in communication between us & Daz & Jennie: no biggie - I shouldda been on it more - but it's been a wee bit crazy out there! + they also had quite a bit on their plate too, what with the colossal juggling act that Rebellion is (& fair play to 'em for putting on probably the best Punk Festival in the world!) + the arrival of their new addition, Keir - congratulations, guys!

Also - I'd just like to say thanks very much for the support from all you lovely, wonderful lunatics that were able to stick around for our 'Totally Plugged' set which we closed The Pavilion stage with - if you were there, you'll know we were under the cosh, & why, but out of respect for yer wan's privacy, I won't go into it any further - suffice to say that we love you all - you adorable loonies!

It was very reassurring in such difficult circumstances to see so many friendly faces & hear so many familiar, rowdy voices! 

Thank you SO much! Go raibh mile maith agaibh!
