LATEST NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Apr 24th 2003
Well we ended the band in January(with a fantastic show at the Lucky with Schlauncher and Ashtray insects)so this is a bit late but heres some closure. Thanks to anyone who saw one of our shows, bought a cd or shirt, played with us, helped us, or appreciated us on any kind of level. Since this is probably the most neglected website since the arc its now highly unlikely anyone will be reading this. So like many bands before us we shall fade into obscurity before we even got going, but thanks to all members who ever played in the band(you know who you are, boohoo sniff). If anyone wants any of our music(there's about ten different recordings/demos)just email me at greglager@hotamail.com, ADIOS I'm off to see the world!

Hey last Friday was a fantastic night with a great crowd helping us raise the "heat" at the "Furnace". Well done to all that joined in on the big conga line during "I'll have two sods to go!", and to anyone who sexually assaulted Justin, haha. The pre-production of our single has begun with the completion of some demos we recorded live last thursday at Siluette studios, we are already very excited about doing the complete recording in a few months after hearing the live mix. In gig news we will be doing a free outdoor concert at Bernie Goodwin Oval in Morisset this Saturday June 9th between 2-4pm. Its part of an aerosol art exibition.

Remember to head to the Beachcomber Hotel on Thursday to see the Porker's carve it up! Oh and you might wanna get there about 9:30pm cause we're on before 'em! If your in Newcastle on Friday you can check us at the Hunter on Hunter, or next wednesday at the Castle Tavern for the Quarter finals of the Bundy Band Slam. If your under 18 on 1st June then The Furnace Niteclub(Mission Theartre/King st/Newcastle/Opposite Big Al's)will be the place to be. Its gonna be huge with spectacular lights, sound, video the whole shebang, just like a rock concert, haha. For more info check the gig guide or go The Furnace official webpage which just went online.
