In just two more days you will be able to buy our new album, "Over The Stones, Under The Stars." If you are in Australia that should mean being able to get it at all good record stores, and perhaps even some of the less good ones. Ditto New Zealand. For everyone else there's iTunes, though I believe not in the US for a few more weeks - November 17, I have just been informed.

There is however, one way to get it earlier, and that way is that you live in Melbourne and you come to our instore tomorrow night (Thurs 22nd) at Polyester Records in the City. Joe, Ben and I will be playing a half hour set from 6pm, and albums will be available. It's all ages and free to get in, and will be your only chance to see us before the launch at Northcote Social Club on Nov 27. Polyester is at 288 Flinders Lane. We'd love to see you.

For those of you fascinated by our motivations, our dreams, and Ben's incredible journey on a right handed bass, Mess & Noise have just published a track by track feature I wrote for them - it's a leisurely stroll through some of the origins of the songs, the process of making the album and a bunch of other rambling rubbish. You can read it here: http://www.messandnoise.com/articles/3780810

Finally, the tour is looming ever closer, mark my words. Tickets are now on sale for the Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide shows - details below. Jess Cornelius from our touring pals Teeth & Tongue is even learning some of our keyboard parts so you will have the full hi-fi experience. Also, Heinz Riegler has been added as opener at the Northcote Social Club show - he's great: http://www.myspace.com/heinzriegler
