Make a day of it, and let “The Mandrake Project” bring you a piece of sunshine!
“…tight well crafted, virtuosic and beautiful… Largely, the music spoke for itself and was fascinating and emotionally rewarding…” (Fabulous Furry Folk, Glastonbury) Ash :o)

Hey AFBB, hope you're having a great day. i've just added my first music video (for my song NYC) to my page. Please check it out, It was made in Auckland by film maker Mark Prebble, and i'm real excited about it. i'm also looking forward to setting up some shows together for when i get to the UK. Smile lots, b
Oh, it's like christmas all over again! Cheers Santa!
Oxford Street in Bristol or London? Two very different but equally shite places.
Right now, i'm trying to figure out whether i should aim high or low. I could work in a pub again or go for something like camerawoman for some independent tv channel which is more interesting but probably equally shit pay. I could teach Spanish or English as a foreign language or succomb to walking the neighbour's dog. Anything to stop watching Jeremy Kyle and Mortgage and Loan ads, ya know?x
Just thought i'd let you know that now that i'm trying to 'get a job', High Flyer is my personal fave. Wish i could download it and listen to it while i'm trudging in the rain with a bundle of CVs. Cheers! (part II)
Well done again for the other night. It was excellent. We left early in the end cos I was whining about having to run around lots at 7:45 the next morning.
Torsdag d.31 spiller vi i lille-vega. 50.- i éntre. Bang!
Derudover må i ikke glemme at sende nogle stemmer til Det Elektriske Barometer. Gerne på 1 2 3 4.
Yeah man, i know Ben is coming though he hates the band and i hate the band too but i'm still going, weird huh... Both Ben and I decided to go there just for some anti-fan action. Come and gang up on the h.i.v bats with us! Should be a good night! You wentt o birmingham uni? anyway, i'm off to the beach, fuck yeah. rock&roll.x
Where did you go? I used to go to Bristol every weekend back in the day and then, i started going there almost every week last summer before James Pickers left for Oz. Haven't been there since but gonna pay Ben a visit on the 18th June as my friend wants to go and see the Cancer Bats there(what kind of name is that for a band?!?!) and i thought i'd go to the gig and see Ben as well. Fucking love brissle and your quality cider. amen.
Alright there, Alf (BB)... that's very kind of you, shame you couldn't find it! My wednesday is been pretty good. I'm i España at the moment, so i can't complain about anything except for the English tourists! I managed to get 'the man don't give a fuck' song on my humble, little ipod, so now i can listen to you guys sing CUNT 100 times whilst i stare at the beautiful sea... lovely.
Thanks for the add and making me grin! Good to find another PWL fan - we must haul him over the Severn soon! For a gig, I mean, in case that wasn't clear...
Yeah, i was quite out of it, don't remember much. Me and Ritchie pretended that we were both heroine addicts to these drug dealers and that i had a baby who i was gonna abort with a coat hanger. Pretty dark stuff. Do you still have that photo? If you do, do you mind posting it on my wall or sending it to me? Thanks.
Bob here! What you up to on Wednesday night? Fancy getting down to some serious moshing with an old timer like me? I’m having a party in your neck of the woods, and I’m giving away tickets. If you and your mates fancy a night out then head over to A New Movement to sign up for 4 free tickets. Details are below.
Thanks for the add. Hope you enjoyed the songs and the people on our page. Keep checking back for all sorts of crazy stuff. We'd appreciate any help you could give us!
The starberks dont really gig..its too chaotic to pin anything down! But Hysterical Injury do...I think it would be grand to set up a gig at St James WIne Vaults together or something..you, us a few other bands...would be fun!

Hey there...I don't think I have ever seen 21 Jump Street. Cool tune though. Hey have you heard the Starberks...Its on my profile...some of the tunes on there are a bit polished but usually we're pretty raw. The idea is raw and spontaneous!
