November seems odd, you’re my firing squad…
Saturday 7th November
Hey everyone, hope you had a good October 31st, unfortunately us skint musicians cannae afford to go out partying these days. Last year we played as Dorothy and co. for Halloween, this year we just stayed in and watched Halloween. Depressingly, we had the best night’s sleep in ages.
This month has mostly been spent organising our first mini-tour, which will kick off in Dundalk’s Spirit Store, (one of our favourite haunts), and will see us setting foot in London for the first time as a band when we hit the Gibson Centre on Dec 10th. The London jaunt will encompass a weekend of gigs and radio slots, so keep an eye out for updates on the myspace if you’re coming from that direction.
October saw us return to The Globe in Dublin for more open mike night frolics, and as such nights go the Song Room ranks highly in that regard. The crowd are ever cheerful and appreciative and it’s such a pity we have to pick up and rush back to the K-mobile immediately afterwards but we gotta get up on Thursday mornings. We love you anyway!
For those of you in Northern Ireland who had your ears glued to the radio last October 9th, we got bumped due to an unfortunate diary malfunction, but not to worry as we received a sincerely apologetic phone call from Gerry Anderson himself, and have been felicitously rescheduled to November 20th- Children in Need day. Don’t expect to see us in a bath of baked beans or anything though- it is the radio after all.
Anyway we hope you have a fantastic November wherever you are. It must be said the sky has been unforgiving in Belfast, but we hit the road on November 28th so keep an eye out for stop-offs in your town and maybe we can cheer you up, or at least share your pain!
BOO!
