I'm up for live shows too. Houses, clubs, bars, shops, shopping centre's, churches, your bedroom. No gig to small to be considered! I require transport costs, 2 ciders of your choice and 2 shots of whiskey of my choice. xx
As ever if this is your kind of thing, or indeed even if it is not, please give it a listen: the free and easy quick download is there for your use and abuse! The full track listing is available within my profile blog!
Its been selling faster than we expected, and we currently only have around a quarter of our stock left - so we thought we'd better you all know that if you want a copy then now would be a good time to pick one up! If you buy it from the link above then you're buying it direct from us, the label aren't taking a cut - so its a bit like Fair Trade for struggling musicians.
International mail-order is available, just follow the instructions.
Thank you very much, and sorry for making a mess of your profile. If its any kind of consolation, we don't have a MySpace bot, so I'm leaving these comments the old fashioned way. Three -and-a-half thousand of them. My life is so exciting.
