Ok this is my music myspace,all about TriggerHappy and other tunes i have been involved in, gigs ive done,goals ive reached and goals i want to reach.
So having been all over Europe and the states a couple of times what comes next?
I aint getting any younger but the past wont let go,hence the ramblin on here.
I will be updating this page from now on and uploading some good stuff.
Feel free to add the tunes.
Here's a brief write up for myspace from a pal.
Forward by T.C..........Well well well,Trigger Happy started out in Salford in 1994,Manchesters most prolific unsigned underground band, A no nonsense aproach which led to them getting airplay on almost every single radio station in the whole of the british isles with tracks from their only release,"The Lots Gone" EP released in 1997.
limited to only 1000 copies.
In 1999 lead singer Ed Blaney agreed after a meeting with fellow Salfordian Mark.E.Smith(The Fall) to tour manage The Fall on the understanding that Trigger Happy would get some decent support slots on the tour.
Just before the Dublin gig(2000 Redbox) Ed recieved a late night call from 2 members of The Fall stating they had had enough of Mark and The Fall,so with only 12 hours to go before the flights to Dublin, Ed had to cancel the support slot that Trigger Happy were due to play and recruit his own fellow band members to play in The Fall.
Ed and half of his group then joined The Fall for the next 4-5 years with Ed being appointed The Fall's manager.
Despite several scenes in The Fall,Ed along with Mark's wife Elena/the "new group" and the of course the fans, managed to return Mark's career back to where it had recently been in the 80's,up there where it belonged.
Thus explaining the group "vanishing".
Ed ,when recently asked if he would reform Trigger Happy,Ed replied"Its one of those things,maybe,who knows,we will see"
Look out for Trigger Happy tunes being "messed with" and released,the planned album T.V is still there and maybe released in the future.
watch this space.........
Also Ed will be hosting his own radio show on SALFORD CITY RADIO every Friday from 1st Febuary 2008---- 12 noon onwards.Tune in on 94.4FM or log on at www.salfordcityradio.org.Ed will be playing only only good stuff plus up and comming new talent.Expect no nosense and look out for the "Demos from hell" feature,rare tracks and live interviews with local Salford celebs and alike...............
