YAY! jamie scoffed at my clicking - but i new it was excellent - now at has the middle ones seal of approval. I just e-mailed anna my number so you can let me know what time your arriving on sunday and i can give you directions. Its going to be a seriously rad kind of day! see you soon x
Dear The Middle Ones, It's nearly one in the morning, and I just got home from a Zutons gig in the forest. It was spiffy. I saw you online and memories of your loveable giggly-shy ways were brought to mind. "I'll have to pop into Narch soon and see those Middle Ones," I thought. In the meantime, KT Tunstall will sing to me in the rain.

YES - this all worked out good because i was going to skive your bristol gig on account of having to organize the garden thing. but now everything fall into place!
anna! i'm glad to hear the "hello" was delivered! i'm doing well, the record is beginning to get mixed - hopefully it'll be done soon, once and for all. i've got vague plans to come over to the uk in late-september or october but the dates might get pushed back a tiny bit. i'm not quite sure yet... hope everything is great with you! any plans to come to this side of the ocean? keep in touch!! xoxo, chris
hoooray! Oh you should come. I guess i can't offer you any money, because its more of a party than a show so i won't charge for entry - BUT i will feed you and you can sleep in my house. Its pink! xx
Middle ones! Your gig line up no longer indicates that you are playing Bristol on the 15th of june!! If this be true would you like to play in my back garden in Oxford instead - there may well be madgrigals, and winston echo and there definitely will be cookies and cocktails! let me know xxxxxxxxxxx
hello hello, really enjoyed the set the other night, and your cd is really a bit lovely so well done...we'll see you at indietracks i imagine hoorah Sam xx
