Hi Nuclear Family. Thanks for creating your advert on www.mymagicalcity.co.uk Dont forget to keep us updated with your gig dates etc as well. Hope your well. MMC
Hey Mike! It was so lovely to see you, I wasn't expecting anyone to turn up, not after my bar none gig, so it was awesome that you did! (not even my 'supposed' friend Char! lol) Glad you liked the cello sound, I'll pass the comment on to Duncan. That was our first set together, so hopefully it'll go on to become a beeeeauuuutiful musical relationship! Hope to see you on Sat! Ying x
Wow, your background's sending my eyes crazy! Was amazing seeing the band the other night. Hope you're not too stressed about work. If you've got time, come and see the gig! Talk soon! Ying x
We have no plans as yet to play live - mainly because all of the instruments are played by myself and Paul.
Plus, we need to hone the sound a little and as you can hear, it's very dependent on the studio (which isn't really transferable to the stage unfortunately).
That said, neither of us would rule it out, but it seems to make more sense to improve on our instruments and establish a production sound that we can replicate or improve .. we embark on a live career.
warning we might lose the band stand at the arbo cos of one nagging old fart who only likes brass bands,, shes the only person to contact the council about the events there and its always to complain, rory says if enough people write in the council saying how much they enjoy the events the council will ignor her complaints,,, so please write in so we can keep the events there and get the noise levels raised ,, please let as many people know as possible
hey nuclear fam.
it was my moms wedding. and it was amazing.
so my boy paul and i are planning a trip tp iceland/europe. we'll keep our eyes and ears open for any shows then. maybe you can play a special show for us californians for our first time in europe.
