To our friends, family, and fans,
After over 3 years, 30 shows, and a lot of fun, Manchester School has broken up. Thank you to all who supported us by listening to our music and going to our shows. We had a great time and met some amazing people and bands along the way.
We wrote dozens of songs, recorded an E.P., filmed a video, and were reviewed and written about in Zero Magazine and the San Jose Metro. We were a Top 20 finalist in the BFD Local Band Contest and won Best Local Band in the San Jose Metro. A great article in that newspaper followed the Best Local Band win.
In 2008, just a month ago, we won the Gorilla Productions "Battle of the Bands" contest in San Francisco.
We were so fortunate to play so many great venues like the Blank Club, DNA Lounge, Hotel Utah, the Rockit Room, the Starry Plough, Britannia Arms, Johnny V's, and the Caravan Lounge.
We had a blast and again thank everyone and anyone who ever supported us! Please make sure to visit our MySpace page and listen to our final recordings: a studio version of One Chance with our original singer Rick (this was always a favorite to play!) and live versions of Sudden Winter and Center of Attention from the Battle of the Bands show with our second singer Anton.

As a friend of Killaflaw we'd like to give you the opportunity of purchasing our uniquely numbered, limited edition CD single 'Revolution' which also includes the much loved 'Holy Fuck' on the B side.
There are only 1000 copies in existence and further copies will be sold without these unique numbers, so here is your chance to own a piece of music history from the LIPA award winning band dubbed by Eddy dance/rock guru Temple-Morris "the missing link between Soundgarden and The Prodigy"
The record is of course also available to buy as MP3 download.
Hey we have a really great show coming up September 19 at Broadway Studios San Francisco. Come check us out... We really love to put on a great show for you in a really great venue. Live 105 as well as other SF Radio Stations will be in attendance. Come check us out. Music starts at 9:00, Tickets sold online at: acteva. com/go/bandsonbroadway. We will be sticking around before and after the show so come have drinks with us! Great venue in North Beach. Cheers!
Happy Days is out now on iTunes and our record Revolution will be released on September 29. We're also talking to potential collaborators such as Yo Majesty and Reverend And The Makers.
Hey guys, It was nice meeting you and fun playing with you the other night! Please think of us if you ever need a band to fill a slot--we'll do the same for you. Thanks guys! --N8
Hey, I can't make your show on the 19th because I will be in Iowa but I should be able to make your show on the 22nd. Is the hot librarian going to be at that show?
