Bigmouth Strikes Again

Greetings,

I suppose I should write something in the vein of a 'tour blog' seeing as we just returned from a country-wide jaunt with our good friends Jaimison and our new friends Canterbury. But there is far too much information to write here so I'll just talk about the golden moments. We started in Southampton, at a club called unit 22, it was our first show of 2008 and it was SO much fun, thank you so much to everyone that made it out that night. It didnt even start until 10.30 pm so everyone was pretty shattered after it, and I felt so out of shape after the long break since our last show in december!

The London date of our tour was excellent, I was really suprised to see so many new faces at the Water Rats, and was completely blown away by how many of you where into it! It was our first proper London headline show so thanks a bunch to everyone that made it out. It was a total shame that Jaimison couldnt play that show, for some reason they didnt get booked and I was totally gutted about it. I think that everyone there would have loved them so check them out. That day i remembered how completely toilet british public transport is when i had to get to tottenham ct. road and back before we played. it took me about a hundred hours.

Scott (Canterbury's drummer) allways had his video camera out poking it in peoples noses, and he is making a tour video, so im sure if you watch that then you will get the idea of how much fun we all had. (one other thing about canterbury, is that they LOVE to dance. they didnt stop for the whole bloody tour. godbless.)

As many of you probably already know, we've been writing for our debut full length, which is almost finished and will be recorded next month. We've been playing a couple of songs from the album recently and we've been getting a good vibe from people about them so im really excited to get the record finished and in your ears!!! we also have a new shirt so check that out if you havent already.

I think writing this has made my eyes go square, so I should stop before it turns into a hardback novel. We are planning to tour again at the end of may and through some of june so keep your eyes peeled for those dates we'll be playing some more of the new stuff, and it will be the last tour we do with chris our bassplayer so lets make it one to remember!!

Kind Regards,
Samuel.
