Hey screaming fans,
This is probably something that a successful band might make an issue of, but it needs to be said sooner or later: Glass Army is going to stop playing gigs. We've been slogging away as a band for about three years now, and the time has come for us to reconvene. So we met out the back of Goldbergs and decided to shift our focus from playing live to other things like working on our album and living life etc. As well as team pursuits, we are all keen to spread out and get involved in various individual exploits during 2008, like study, travel, work and other hoohaa.
Of course, we still have a few shows booked that we'll play out, and then we'll just stop playing altogether. There's one left in each city: Canberra, Sydney, Newcastle and Melbourne. These will be pretty special for us, obviously, and we'll be taking the opportunity to see our dear mates for the last time in a very long while. We hope to see your sweet faces somewhere in the pub and have a few cold ones while it's still summertime, and maybe we'll see you again some day when we have something substantially new and awesome to play.
Thanks to everyone who's helped us out with accommodation, gigs, booze, jams and hangs over the past couple of years: Aaron, Rach, Heath, Sheepie, Pen, Carina, Fal, Luke Arms, Days Like Stars, Lover, and the zillions of other folk and bands we've crashed and played with since we started touring. And of course special thanks to the people who told us they dug our set or our EP, and came to check out subsequent gigs.
So, we'll see you soon at one of these last gigs and hopefully we'll come back some day with a new perspective and a new record.
Lots of love,
Glass Army.
