That's it for March

March, a month full of great gigs, couldn't have a happier end for us. We entered a band competition just for fun and now we've suddenly ended up in the final round! Yesterday we had to play a 20 minute gig to impress a jury. They probably liked us (or Rowald did them a "favour"), because we're in the finals 29th April @ Nozem, Heemskerk, NL. So if you're in the area; drop by and give us some support!

Besides that we still these other 2 shows coming up:
April 10th @ Victorie, Alkmaar, NL
May 29th @ Storey Club, Akersloot, NL

Next week we will be recording again. We'll record the songs we haven't recorded yet. Out of all the recorded material we'll choose some songs to re-record in a big, fancy, classy studio somewhere in May. So keep checking our MySpace for on news on this.

BTW, Lionn is going on a well deserved holiday! Think he's going to Indonesia or Thailand for two weeks, lucky bastard! So we won't have any shows or activity for two weeks in April.

That's it for now. I'm off: to Rowald's birthday. Beer and veggie shit, nice.

Recordings

The songs you can listen to on our Myspace were recorded in our rehearsal room last February. In two weeks we will do another rehearsal room recording session (about 4 songs again). We'll be choosing the best out of those two recordings and we will hit a real studio in May to record our first official release! We'll keep you posted...
