Ha, millions going on at TPO Ground Zero the last while, been neglecting the old site as we were hoping for a bit of a revamp to try and sort out the ridiculous amount of entirely perverted spam the site seems to attract. Maybe I just look like the kind of guy interested in donkeys in "that" way!

Here's a brief run down of stuff that's gone down since my last post.

New photies

A new photoshoot by the lovely Carrie Davenport, that was BLOODY FREEZING but really good fun. Thanks to yer man on his way to the Sports Bar at 11am on a Sunday for his input! Wouldn't be the Dunville Park without some mental case :-)

 

New promo shots by Carrie Davenport.

A lot of acoustic gigs for a big departure, including a special appearance at the non-profit Common Grounds café for the lovely Karen, and a great session at the Songs of Protest event in the Oh Yeah Centre Belfast.

Then to go along with that we did another little acoustic session and interview for the Hearts and Minds about the importance of Protest Music, which can be looked at here on Stuart Bailie's Blog

Off to Galway soon too for a gig in Sally Longs on the 27th Feb. Oh and we've got a release date in mind for the album, hmmm, let's see.

HUMAN RESOURCES!

How's about March 2nd? Aye, sweet as.

See yas about then!

Oh aye, great review of the album on www.sobriquetmagazine.com/music/2008/12/tin-pot-operation.html a bizarrely erudite US punk blog, that also seems to cater for critical theory of mid 20th Century American Literature.

Also don't forget to grab your FREE copy of Sitting There from http://www.nichart.com/downloads.html that way you can help keep us in the top 10 (number 7 for 2 weeks to date)

And very nice he was too. Stuart knows his onions right enough so it’s a very nice compliment to us that he would put us in the same bracket as SLF and that.

Cheers!

Which is a nice wee bonus.

The song scored 7 apparently, which is good.

The song is stuck up the myspace at the moment if you want to have a listen.

The album is coming- I know it’s taking AGES but it’ll be here SOON and it’s WORTH WAITING FOR..!

In the mean time, I think we have persuaded DJ JG to make one of his rare-as-hens-teeth live performances at this Saturday’s Rotterdam gig, these hardly EVER happen, but are always worth seeing!

That’s this Saturday, 6th Sept at the defiantly STILL open Rotterdam Bar, in Pilot Street, Belfast. adm £5 music from 10 til LATE. See you ther!
