When hatred reared it's ugly head, Alexander Beetle turned and fled.
The Name
"Hush!" said Christopher Robin turning round to Pooh, "we're just coming to a Dangerous Place."
"Hush!" said Pooh turning round quickly to Piglet.
"Hush!" said Piglet to Kanga.
"Hush!" said Kanga to Owl, while Roo said
"Hush!" several times to himself, very quietly.
"Hush!" said Owl to Eeyore.
"Hush!" said Eeyore in a terrible voice to all Rabbit's friends-and-relations, and
"Hush!" they said hastily to each other all down the line, until it got to the last one of all. And the last and smallest friend-and-relation was so upset to find that the whole Expotition was saying "Hush!" to him, that he buried himself head downwards in a crack in the ground, and stayed there for two days until the danger was over, and then went home in a great hurry, and lived quietly with his Aunt ever-afterwards.
His name was Alexander Beetle.
2005: Alexander Beetle form and quickly gain notority among 7s of people. Astutely the original 3 members created a mystique for themselves. Creating merchandise, an advertising campaign and a song. Popularity grew in a several. And thats about all that happened for a year.
2006: The band gain a guitarist and some new T-shirts. Ever the experimentalists they briefly tried the concept of using a mouldy potato (The Casey) as a drummer. The Casey was soon abbandoned in favour of something with... well... neuroactivity. More merch was made and more advertising was done. At least 2 songs were made. One epic. The other getting label interest. Wisely the band turned down the signing offer. Several people commented on the Myspace.
2007: The band does nothing for quite a while and members create side-projects to fill the intervening time. Sudden realisation that they were running out of Uni time work begins on their first proper EP... Which they again fail to finish. There were no new fans.
2008: Not alot happens. There were no new comments or friend requests. What was recorded when the album was being written is put online. University came to a close. The members go their seperate ways. It was then discovered that most of the fanbase had moved to Facebook. An Alexander Beetle facebook page was then created. Rumblings begin about the next EP...
Alexander Beetle is not dead!
It is not on hiatus!
It's not even sidelined! Alexander Beetle has now become a periodically recouring phenomina!
All 4 members have vowed to keep creativity going through the internet channels when creativity strikes. If money is given to us we will probably become even more than periodically productive. Meaning plans are still brewing to have naked ladies moshing.
I told you I'd eventually get round to listening to some of this stuff and guess what? I finally did! even better I quite liked it too, now where do i get all my Alexander Beetle merchandise?
errr..... eh? You've got 4 days though.... are you gonna be ready?! I'll listen either way, did Adam have anything to do with it or had he already gone?
after re-watching, i think that the three part AB diary from april is simply an awesome documentary of the highs and los of a band in action. fantastic.
Yes, yes, yes. We have recorded a song, which is yet to be named. We're thinking Signs (Those Sticks With Pictures), but we're undecided. I know, the brackets thing is a bit emo - but it has to be done. It'll be up when our 'agent'/music teacher has made the CD. Heaven knows when that will be. We'll keep you very posted.
