Hello! The Covergirls have changed their name to:

MONDEGREEN!

It's a great idea - just like Prince, but slightly less pretentious.

But now we have to tell over 1,000 friends.

One down...

AMAZING gig last night. You guys are really on fire just now. Paul , you so tasty . Scott, the beard has to go but you were so so good last night. And Jake , well , what can I say, madman. Never witnessed anything like it. Didnt know whether to laugh ,cry, scream or dance . Without doubt on of the most unique performers ive ever seen. Think you scared half of the crowd , but they totally loved being scared I reckon . Everyone was talking about your performance afterwards.Didnt hear boy malicious though , boooooo!. Was lookin forward to it .
