"Could this be the positive side of Blair's tenure the historians will be looking for?" - John Kennedy, XFM
"They do jaunty indie, that's a bit different to most, a bit of a dark edge to it, but one you don't immediately notice. Also the singer has a wicked voice. The combined effect gets me somewhere under my décolleté." - Marsha, XFM

we have now split up. partly due to a few of us moving abroad for a year. It probably would have happened anyway though, due to some people never ever really wanting it that much. i think that's fair. news about new things is sure to follow at the appropriate juncture.
dirtyhands are/were a band of students (kcl), who study by the river. philosophers, doctors, francophiles and classicists amongst our lot. the hustle and bustle of the city could be classed as an inspiration i suppose. nothing ever stops round here, and if you actually do stop in the street, somebody will probably just bump into you unapologetically. just keep walking. .
we have had the pleasure of playing with Pete and the Pirates, Bolt Action Five, The Matadors, Modernaire, Twisted Charm, Tiger Force, Innercity Pirates and Connan and the Mockasins amongst various other lovely musicians.

PLANET BEET HAS RETURNED to putting on gigs, but only occasional ones, and this time they're in Norwich, at B2.
Here's the lineup for our first one:
FRIDAY 25TH APRIL - PLANET BEET - NO PICASSO + TINMAN + THE GREAT SHAKES + THE LIDI BERLINS + DJs + Prizes @ B2, Norwich. £4 on the door. Doors Open 8pm. 14+ First band on very soon after the doors open, so arrive early!
Members of the bands will be DJing between sets, and there'll be a PRIZE for one lucky person.
PLUS, the gig will be recorded for our PLANET BEET RADIO SHOW (which gets 500,000 listeners per show!), which is presented by me, Mr Jason, every Wednesday on New York based BREAKTHRU RADIO (www. breakthruradio. com).
Also, coming up sooner than that is PLANET BEET PRIVATE PARTY #4. Every month we have bands playing to a strictly invite-only audience of friends at a secret location, which we also record for the Planet Beet radio show. We've sofar had the following bands play at these private parties: The Lost Levels, Long Bone Trio, The Three Fevers, Uh Ohs, The GeeGees, Thee Vicars, Social Group, The Foster Kids, Comic Book Heroes, and lots of drunken allstar jams..
PBPP4 is on Saturday 5th April, and will feature CATS AGAINST THE BOMB and more to be confirmed. Invites, as per usual, are VERY strictly limited. Though if you're a very enthusiastic music fan that will applaud and dance to all the acts, then message us for an invite, and you never know..
