Wow... a lot of things to tell you about... Firstly, and most excitingly, the CD is here at last! If you click on the "add to cart button" over on the left, there it is... It's been a long time in the making but we're proud of it and hope you enjoy it too! Our official Launch Gig will be at the Grey Horse, Kingston, on Saturday 6th June. Look out for some reviews here soon... Also keep an eye here on the site, work is now under way for a new website which will be launched just prior to the Grey Horse gig, which will mark the official name change to Northsyde! Bring it on!
So, in other news - we have some good gigs coming up to check out. The first of which is at The Arkenstall Centre in Cambridge, on Saturday 2nd May (see gig list for more info). This is part of the fundraising series of gigs put on by the organisers of the Cambridge Rock Festival in August. It promises to be a lot of fun! The Festival has already got a killer lineup (check out the poster here) - Asia, Focus, Jefferson Starship, Quicksilver Messenger Service - and loads more as well. Marvellous!
And so, to look back a little now... we've had some great gigs over the last few weeks! Our trip to Holland and Belgium at the beginning of the month was an absolute hoot. We really love playing in Europe - it's incredible! Wonderful, energetic and open-minded audiences, great people. So, a big thank you to Ad Van Meurs and Jo Verboven for organising the trip for us - you guys are brilliant! You can see some photos from a couple of the gigs at Marc Koetse's and Xander Hagen's" websites. Incidentally, another thank you to Marc Koetse for the gracious use of one of his photos in the booklet accompanying the new CD!
This weekend also saw us heading up to Cumbria for two gigs. Friday we played at Bill and Joyce Harrison's new venue in Barrow In Furness, The Traveller's Rest. What a great gig! Wonderful to see a new venue so well supported - a fantastic crowd and good acoustics, it made for a rocking night. So much fun! Saturday then saw us playing at Chris Denton's Club 35 in Carlisle. This was the first time we'd played in Carlisle and was also a lot of fun. A big thanks to everyone who came out to see us there too!
And so to finish... huge props to everyone who continues to support live music - we love you all!
See you at a gig soon!

Hello all - courtesy of the rather tasty work of Andrew Welding, we've got some rather cool youtube clips to share from the Ealing festival shenanigans. Thanks for sharing these Andrew!
