Have know Mark and the boys for some years, helping out The Risk and their other bands, Single File and Private Eye. Always a brillent live band (I've seen them enough) and have released some excellent records, even EMI showed interest in them at one point, but it wasn't to be, coming from a small Island was a handicap that never got in their way though, even going to California for a year!! It is my pleasure to tell you, THE RISK are back, with a new single lined up for early 2001, 'For The Weekend'/'From the Hip', on Mark's Own Twist records, to be followed by a brand new studio album!! Image hosted by Photobucket.com 'SONGS FROM THE BIG TOMARTO' Fantastic new album from the boys who have lost none of their old fire and edge. A mix Power pop/Soul 'Shoot from the hip' 'Weekend' (all about Northern soul) 60s garagePyshe songs 'Atmospere' and 'Time'. We may have had to wait a long time for the bands forth album, but this in my view is with out doubt their best to date. Which just goes to show some things do get better with age!!!

We have a BIG FAVOUR TO ASK YOU in the name of Bowfinger!!!



The Isle of Jersey is hosting their largest music festival in September - JerseyLive. They've accepted our application to get Bowfinger playing on one of the stages there.



IT WOULD BE REALLY GREAT IF YOU COULD HELP US.
We have a huge fighting chance of achieving this with your rate.



Please go to www.mymemory.co.uk/unsigned and register yourself to vote.



Once your registration has been accepted, search for Bowfinger (genre Punk even though its not!) & then rate us by double clicking the appropriate ratings number.



It is down to you as to how much you rate our stuff, it goes from 0.5 - 5, one of our tracks Wishing What Your Hoping For is uploaded for your listening pleasure & almighty jurisdiction..... all rates will be ace, the full five would be awesome naturally!

Image Hosted by ImageShack.ushi, greetings from austria, Fuzz FOREVER!

by the way, my former band "the losers" used to play with you guys on stage in vienna, after the gig we went out for dinner in a yugoslavian restaurant. at that place your manager tried to get close to our organplayer and pick him up or so, i guess it was in 1988, after that we were also on a unicorn compilation (into the light), anyway its a long long time ago. cheers

Ok, I always see this $500 Victoria Secret Valentines Day Gift Card crap EVERYWHERE

Well, I gave it and tried it, and it seriously works!

All I did was put in my zip code

Just wanted to let you know it's for real

Here's what you get for putting in your zip code


If you want to get one while they still offer it, go to

www.WildGiftCards.com

If you don't want it, get it and send it to me for Valentines Day!
