MISTYS BIG ADVENTURE A
glorious 8 piece band from Birmingham in the UK, made up of brothers and
sisters and twins and saxophones and trumpets and cute, weird dancers
who produce the most uplifting, life affirming tunes you will hear since
Louie Armstrong played with the Lovin Spoonful.
Dave from The Zutons loves them, so much so that he
invited them on tour, twice and we were invited to support The Magic
Numbers, The Guillemots and The Pipettes last year
If you wish to purchase any bit of Misty's merchandise such as T Shirts, CD's or finger puppets, then the best thing you can do is get yourself down to the MISTY'S LITTLE SHOP
YOU CAN CHECK OUT THE VIDEO FOR 'FASHION PARADE' HERE
It was made by Mark Locke and his site features other Mistys' videos including THE STORY OF LOVE and HEY MAN
plus

Independent
Know I'm way behind the times... nut just noticed iTune and Amazon.co.uk track listings for "Funny Times" album are all messed up. Title track isn't entitled Funny Times and final track simply called "unknown".
Doesn't affect actually listening to the fab sounds (of course) but still v odd???
Thankyou for Fridays gig. The feeling has just about returned to my feet after dancing like a crazy. Thanks also to The Erotic Volvo-That was possibly the most sensual performance yet! x tori
Hello. Please do delete this comment if you so wish.
We're just making sure that everyone knows that our debut album 'Horses For Courses' is available to buy from our little record label's online shop:
http://www.donttellclare.co.uk/shop.htm
Its been selling faster than we expected, and we currently only have around a quarter of our stock left - so we thought we'd better you all know that if you want a copy then now would be a good time to pick one up! If you buy it from the link above then you're buying it direct from us, the label aren't taking a cut - so its a bit like Fair Trade for struggling musicians.
International mail-order is available, just follow the instructions.
Thank you very much, and sorry for making a mess of your profile. If its any kind of consolation, we don't have a MySpace bot, so I'm leaving these comments the old fashioned way. Three -and-a-half thousand of them. My life is so exciting.
Thanks for the BNP blog. it felt good to get my spleen vented. I have some work hung outside in Glastonbury, take a look if your bored enough. Not so much guerilla art, as a hanging monkey. Beats sitting on my-space all day though, apparently.
Tickets now available online for our Paul Foot Festival of comedy and music and arts and crafts... at a temporarily cheaper early -bird price... Misty's are headlining on 12th July...
