We played a lovely gig last week at the Source Below.

At one point, though, someone accused us of falling prey to a "Twitter rumour" regarding Back to the Future. Even if we were wrong about Marty's presence, I would just like to reiterate that in NO WAY was our cultural misreferencing informed by Twitter. Because, and you'll know because you've listened to the podcast, it makes us furious. And look! Here's a short story about WHY:

We're back now, for those of you who've missed us. It was WELL GOOD. If you've missed us that much though, you've got every excuse to come and see us play at the Notting Hill Blag Club this Friday. Music from 8ish, with the assurance of new songs and good people. Come and we'll show you some excellent photos of us and the Scafell Massif. And then sing for you. Pretty good, no?

See you there then.

Last night, we played at Battersea Arts Centre with some of the Tree of Lost Things crew (find out more here: http://www.ignoretheforcast.co.uk). It wasn't quite a gig - but we played songs we knew (some), some plays we vaguely remembered (most) and songs we hadn't ever played before (one or two). It was a real treat - more to come, fo sho.

Tomorrow is Bonfire Night. There will be fireworks outside.

Episode Two is in the can

What fun we had arsing around of a Saturday morning (afternoon, and early evening). What to expect? Extendable cutlery, peevish Penny Farthing riders, a long-overdue boon for bagel-eaters and no fewer than two competitions. With music from Mary Bowers, Sunday Driver, The Teak Project, Lola & the Clic and EBRT-FMC.

Start getting excited right about now.
