Very last minute, I realise, but… we are playing this Saturday (28th March) as part of an evening’s entertainment at the Hackney Empire where we are appearing alongside new perennial stage buddies Pocus Whiteface. And it’s FREE, FREE, FREE!

Alas, it is not in the actual Theatre bit itself but in the Marie Lloyd Bar where undoubtedly the pre-show drink crowd will be both shocked and appaled at what they’ve walked into. We will aim to please. Orders for sludge metal jams for the interval will be taken at the bar.

Deeeeets! -

We’ve just been added to this Wednesday’s Silver Rocket show at the Buffalo Bar. 

In better words than I could come up with, here’s what Silver Rocket have to say about it…

Silver Rocket presents:

KLING KLANG (or K**** K**** as they’re currently trading on myspace)

5 piece heavy experimental synthesiser krautrock orchestra with amplified vintage synths, futuristic riffs, electric guitars and live drums.

BUTTONHEAD

Eclectic noise salad. And vehemently not folk.

“Buttonhead have refined their live act into what closely resembles a burst goat, or the conjunction of mustard and Velcro, and they frequently invite their audiences to spit biscuits and construct large pineapple hammers on stage.”

http://www.myspace.com/buttonhead

UNCLE PEDRO

Indie Rock that doesn’t take itself too seriously, for fans of Pixies, McLusky, Montana Pete and Shellac

http://www.myspace.com/unclepedrouk

Next to Highbury & Islington tube.

Just a quick hello regarding our gig last Saturday: it was Trident missile-sized fun. Great standard of bands, good sounding venue, and we got some radio play as a result! We are officially ‘wired-up personality-laced post-hardcore‘.

I took some photos of the other bands, but none of us on stage (I was, er, busy…).

Big thanks to Rachel+Andy at Silver Rocket, and Neil for the sound. I wish I lived in London and could come to this regularly.
