Many great things in this world go through the process of re-branding. ‘Joy Divison’ became ‘New Order’, ‘Marathon’ became ‘Snickers’ and ‘Elvis’ became Shakin' Stevens’. Not content with creating yet another musical genre, the artists formally known as ‘He Of Fidget Or Shet’ have decided on re-naming themselves ‘Fizzy Pop’. It’s also a way to differentiate between the tribute acts- ‘He Of Fidget Are Shit’ and ‘Bilge Pump’. The last 12 months have seen the Shet record their worst album to date, resulting in Terry Perkins moving to Australia and Derek Perkins moving bedroom. To celebrate the new branding, ‘Fizzy Pop’ will release an album of brand new material (in 2012) and will not play a series of live gigs. The band will continue to make great music under their new moniker and would like to fan their fan (Mr. A. Brookes, Cheltnam) for his continued support. All our love, Terry, Derek and Kenny Perkins.

i was getting all upset about affording to go and see the lords last gig but then i noticed, well, YOU'RE not so why be so upset? i feel betterer already!
i still keep chuckling about that. the funniest thing EVER to have been caught out of the corner of my eye... why is the camera never running when you really need it!? do you think james brown started practising that in a church... ?
Just getting round to thanking all the bands that were part of the All Dayer the other week, it was a great day and truly epic.. like several gigs rolled into one! Shame you couldn't stick around for the remainder, it was awesome.
You guys were one of my faves.. i'm gonna have to get you back here soon so more Sheffielder's can know of your ways ;)
