   About Technophobes!


CONTACT/BOOKINGS etc: BILLY@TECHNOPHOBES.NET

Hi! Technophobes are on holiday at the moment, and will return in June. They can still be contacted at the above email address, or by MySpace.

Technophobes are from Glasgow (ish) and do slightly eccentric noisy pop violence. There are three four of them, and things usually go wrong, but in the good way.

The band are currently recording an album! It's all being done in super-top-secret, but when it's done you can hear it.

video: "fuck", live in glasgow 2/5/07

Thanks again class 3b for coming along for your recital last night. Skool is now fully dismissed for the summer. Time to stock up on ginger pop and out door fun.

The old monthly meeting of spanners is upon us once again.

Friday 27th June at Basura Blanca, Brunswick Hotel, Glasgow, ten till two..

Onefuckingpound as always, a selection of tunes that your granny wouldn't like and visuals from our man in the east end: the mighty Vitascope.
Plus yet another strictly limited 'Sound the Alarm' badge featuring artwork
form the aforementioned Vitascope.

If that ain't enough you can shove it up yer arse.

"bring back driving instructor!" an angry mob shouts.

The technodudes sit down and contemplate this rather prolific request. They all come to the conclusion that with its catchy bass line and it's quirky lyrics that it's a wise decision.

And that's the story of how Paul convinced everyone to bring the song Driving Instructor back.

The end.

Paul: SHUT UP. YOU'VE MADE YOUR DECISION.

Jenna: Perhaps Sladenophobes? Nothing will beat Technopogues...

Dec 27 2007 10:06 PM

Oh Dear! How about 'Technowhams' with 'Last Christmas, I Gave You My Korg'? Do I have to pay anyone for that suggestion??

(What a terrible idea. Forgive me!)
Paul vs. YOU





Dec 27 2007 5:16 PM

I owe the Pogues sexual favours, but that's a very long and boring story.

A new gig, without paul, huh? That'll be none too good.
Billy





Dec 27 2007 2:21 PM

Be that as it may, we all probably owe the actual Pogues some money now.

Thank you very much, it'll be lovely to see you play again also.

I was told by Mr Clark that it would be good debauched fun, so I felt that it was my duty not to turn this one down. I reckon it'll be brilliantly surreal.
