Hey! This time we're coming! We'll play at Beach Rod Hotel in Bondi (6 of January), Excelsior Hotel in Sydney (7 of January) and at Southbound Festival! Hope to see you at the show ! If you have the time, come on check our new website www.fuckthebassplayer.com, we did a lot of work on it! :-)
Final gig at Yah Yah's, kiss The Shimmys good-bye. For a piece of
us, don't forget The Shimmys new album "Brunettes on the rocks" is
available at 'Off the Hip' (www.offthehip.com.au) or buy a copy at the
show.
Come and help us pay for our travel from Melbourne. It will make you feel really good about yourself(John Merrick, the Elephant Man, had a benefactor who by all accounts slept extremely well and had regular bowel movements with an excellent firmness of stool) Apart from the charity side off things, we're not too bad either.
Thanks for being our myspace friend. We get spammed all the time on myspace and its getting hard to know who's a fan and who isn't. If you are a fan it would be great to see you at our next gig - see www.jimmyyukka.com. In future the best way to find out about what we are up to is to join our mailing list.
