Just a quick note about the lack of sun in August, but more importantly, gigs in September.  Unfortunately, we've had to cancel our gig at Leonards, Clerkenwell at the end of this week (7th), and it's a mssive shame, as we were looking forward to getting back in the saddle after a summer of recording - but it's unavoidable :(.  Still, there is more to come :).

We've got just one major gig this month, but it's going to be fun - a weekend mini-festival over the 22nd-23rd of September @ Wookiefest, Bedfordshire.  Wookiefest is a charity event spread over two days, with around 40 bands, great food, beer and a stack load of DJs to keep everything going until 3 or 4 in the morning.  KR are playing third last of the bands on the Saturday night (hopefully going on stage sometime between 9 and 10pm).

Amongst all the fun and games, this event is for two very good causes - the Keech Cottage Children's Hospice (for children with life-limiting conditions) and Sue Ryder Care (Palliative and Neurological Care).  It's a nice way to support two important charities doing really quite difficult work, and have a wail of a time at the same time.

If you want to come along, we suggest you grab a camping ticket (it's only £20 for the weekend, £12 for the day) and come and hang around and irresponsibly drink far too much into the early hours listening to some great music.  Ooh, and you're alowed your own drinks for when the bars stop serving :).  We have a couple of tickets left, but you can get them direct from the festival's Ticket Line on 07972 284734.  Full details, links and general info over on our website - http://www.kidneyriddler.co.uk/live

On another note, we'd just like to send a MASSIVE thanks to those of you who came down to the Rhythm Factory in July.  We're sorry the organisers had so much trouble with the sound system, but with you all there, we had great fun and we lured a ton of curious passers-by in after they popped their heads in the venue.  We really appreciate your support - you're always there, and we love ya for it :).

You all take care of yourselves, and we hope to cya soon.

Innit.

We've just had the massive pleasure of uploading some of the tracks from our last gig down @ Storm on Leicester Square into the MySpace player.  Please feel free to have a listen - or even better, download them, annoy your neighbours with them, give them to friends on roughly scribbled-on CD-Rs as cheap birthday presents or blast them to your tube-companions over your mobile phone.

Dat'll leave dem well vexed, blud.

As an added bonus, they sound better as downloads than streamed through MySpace, so forgive MySpace's slightly random attitude to file naming, and go and grab 'em :).  Comments welcome.

On another note, we've got one gig this month @ the Lark In The Park, Islington on Thursday 26th of April.  You can grab a flyer on the MySpace site, but there will be a slightly higher-res printable one on our website (http://www.kidneyriddler.co.uk/live) shortly.

Hope you are all well :).

KR.
