thanks for the heads up speedway.. however this has given chopperdave a wonderful idea to monopolize the world starting with, you guessed it, handbags. its really quite elementry,
phase 1 sell handbags
phase 2 use profit$$$ to purchase enormous magnifing class that will orbit in space incinerating anything in its path.
phase 3 collect handbags and repeat step 1..
hi Ela & co,
I'll be there when you play hoxton...been a while since you played london! on the issue of booking gigs etc , check this lot out= www.myspace.com/mindie_spreadit it's a night organised by people who put on small bands, art etc so i thought it could be some help to you guys? here's to the 26th! x
Hi Ela and the gang,
sorry to hear about glasto, the jazzworld will be a sad place without you guys gracing it. What kind of sized venues are you looking at? i might know of somewhere suitble, will ask around :) hope to see you guys up here again soon :) x
Hello. I hope you all had a splendid New Year!!!! I actually stayed in (with Alfie) which was lovely. Just what I needed after the debauchery over Christmas.
I'm coming to Brighton on the 3rd of Feb. Please tell me you've got a gig!!!

Ps "I love distortion" went down a treat when I played it at The Bethnal Green Working Men's Club!!!
Thanks for your message. Out Of Sync isn't on my page anymore, nothing personal. I'm just fickle and like changing the music once or twice a week.
