Hello, it’s time for the news. (sorry this email is so mental to read...hmmm....) Firstly; a reminder that our session for World Cafe on NPR was broadcast this week. There’s a link to it from here www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5658330 Secondly; we are delighted to declare our new online shop open for business. You can take a spin round the aisles here http://www.camera-obscura-shop.net/ Thirdly, and gosh doesn’t this seem like it’s becoming something of a habit, here are our new tour dates taking in the USA/Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

I am so happy that you will return to the states so soon. I discovered you guys right when you had left, the last tour. I figured I'd have to wait for a new album, to get a chance at seeing you live. With enough planning I should make it to bloomington from omaha. I think you guys should tour with Morrissey before he calls it quits.

Closest you're coming to humble Ohio is either VA or IN...

Either way, looks like I need to start planning a November road trip. Missed you guys on your last run, and I will not do so again.

Still remember the amazing free gig you did at Soundfix in Brooklyn one hot summer night, though I can't really remember the year, 2007 was it? I'll pay this time, promise!
