We just thought we'd send you a message to alert you about our video for our debut single Prism. We released the track from our upcoming album "To The Rest of The World" last month. It is now available via iTunes, Amazon and via SMS in the UK. Text "Track 3852" to 83262 and a reply will tell you how to download to your computer. We are obviously working hard to get up as high as possible in the charts so any help will be very much appreciated!
Also, we have our new youtube video! If you have a youtube account please comment the page as to what you think :)
Thanks again for your continued support for our music and MySpace friendship!
My New Book: Butterfly Tai Chi: Health, Energy and Tranquility in 10 Minutes a Day
Description
The author was inspired by observing butterflies to develop a system of Tai Chi that could be performed in a limited space and within a relatively short time. He designed Tai Chi movements that naturally enhance the Qi flow in the order directed by Chinese medicine and whilst it can be used to treat a wide variety of illnesses, its real power is in preventing illness. Succinct and effective the reader can learn this form of Tai Chi within a day and can be performed anywhere -no matter how little space available.

Your set at Derby Uni tonight totally kicked ass. Haven't seen you guys since I was working for Heaventree Press in Coventry & helped organise your gig at Browns. Was sad not to hear who Tom's been writing to recently, but I think you guys have actually gotten more awesome since I saw you last, which I'd previously thought impossible.
I found Essex 94 on the "Europe Speaks"-compilation and fell in love with it. Immediately. Could hear that constant thumping all day long, not to mention that splendid poetry!
