Hello friends.
For those that don't know, The Orphans played their last ever gig at 5 Lamps, Derby, England on 10/03/07. It was a sad occasion, but also an excuse to tear it up one last time. We all had a great night, beer was drunk, music was played, and we had a fantastic crowd to send us off.
We'd like to thank everyone who's given us gigs, come to our gigs, listened to our music, said kind things about us, and generally supported us in any way. Special thanks to Gez Addictive for all his support and belief over the years.
It's been the best of times (and occasionally the worst of times!) but it's now come to an end.
Right, in true Orphans style, we'll keep it short & sweet, take care everyone, and thanks once more.....
I have decided to join the dark side ... thats right I have gone electronic ... omfg a drummer not hitting things can this be true ... although I am still clubbing the keyboard to make up for the anx building up haha
Anyways as always I hope you are well and that the world is still round an all that
es waren mal wieder ein paar heisse wochen für die britische plattenindustrie, sowohl debutalben oder die schwierige 2.platte. Kate Nash, Jack Penate, Milburn und die Babyshambles... mehr brauch ich ja wohl nicht zusagen.!
Oi oi - if you don't already know, we're playing an awesome all dayer on Sunday. Top Derby bands, cheap entry, tickets available from us, The Blue Dog, or The Music Shed

performance and experiences that you will remember for a life time"....
