Band Websitehttp://www.thehaiku.co.uk
Band MembersPhil - Plays geetar and sings through his mouth to make with the vocal and lyrical content thing. Phil likes Monkeys.

Bert - Hits things with sticks (and sometimes brushes) to make bashy type noises. Bert likes cheese.

InfluencesSong writer Mr Phil is influenced by lots of shitty things that happen. Generally, when the ways of life get in the way of enjoying yourself, and being happy. That doesn't mean the songs are all miserable though. Far from it, that just happens to be the period during which Mr Phil is at his most creative.

WE NEED YOUR POSTERS

Our staircase here at SoundLocker towers is dull and boring, so over 2010 we want to cover the walls entirely with posters.
Bring us in your gig posters, venue posters, band posters, or anything else we can stick on our walls. Have your poster immortalized on the walls of the South's finest music facility.
