I sit at a cluttered desk with a head full of bullshit about torts that I will most likely never need to know, finding myself blogging. What has the world come to when one blogs to avoid ones obligations. Perhaps in 2007 blogging qualifies as an obligation. I don't know.

Anyway, I thought it best to update the public on the latest happenings in the world of Ancient Free Gardeners. We have indeed gone a little bit quiet since the big EP launch a little while back, and there is reason for this. As fans (do they exist?) of this history know, Damo, bass player extraordinaire, unstrapped his bass forever and decided to put some serious time into his punk band, Perfect Reason. On that note, you should visit their myspace at myspace.com/perfectreason11 as their new material sounds fucking amazing, even for a punk averse individual such as myself.

Following Damo's departure we picked up Andy Williams, who had a pluck for a little while and was kind enough to exercise his right to rock and roll for the launch. We are now, however, in search of a new bass player, and the ad we're putting in Beat Magazine isn't a joke at all. We really want one. We need one.

More importantly, Sewelly left the band a couple of weeks ago, with an eye for greener pastures. Literally. His work in grass growing, cutting, breeding, morphing, fellating, molesting and tender caressing is taking up too much of his life, and so we parted ways amicably. It was hard to see him leave, but the show must go on, even when no shows are booked.

So, Cal (previously the band's sound engineer and the lady genius behind the recording of our EP) has stepped in to hit some drums. He even bought a new kit, and it is, to colloquialise (surely not a word), fully sick. Vinnie has promoted himself to full member status, so that he can eventually leave us in the lurch when he gets a gig playing on U2's tour of the Vatican City. .. It would be a short tour, but a picturesque one. And you would be certain to pull a crowd. ahh.. Too funny.

So that's it. The update. Let's hope someone reads it.
