Banzai

Ooooh, I don't know, Boom mailouts are like buses. And by that I don't mean that they're filthy metal monsters carrying the cast of the Jeremy Kyle Show and driven by grey-haired malcontents with their own eccentric take on the time-space continuum. Nor do I mean they're a former nationalised industry sold off piece-by-piece for short-term profit and currently being ill-governed by white-shirted dimwits walking a beaurocratic tightrope between ailing profits and public dischord. What I mean is, you wait for ages and two come along at once! Ho ho ho.

Anyhoo. We do have some fresh and minty gigs coming up in the next few weeks, warming up for those summer festivals. We've just added gigs in Keighley and Poole as well as quite a few others up and down this fair isle. Check em out...

OK then, I hope that everyone enjoyed the BBC Radio 1 Punk Show session that broadcast last Monday. If you didn't hear it you still can until this coming Monday! Francis from Stand Out Riot was apparently so impressed with how accurate our renditions of our tunes were that he told the internet and Mike Davies himself described our bantering on 'Strange Transformations' as the "VIP version" so if that isn't reason enough to listen, I don't know what is. Click your Clickers HERE and get your head around that iPlayer. We're added a short film about our day out onto our YouTube account so you can go and have a look at that too if you have a spare five minutes. I don't know who the 80s-looking band I'm grumbling about at the start is so don't ask. But throw any magazine in the air and point at the page it opens on and it's probably them. Check it out HERE. You can also check our YouTube page HERE which has more interviews, live stuff and videos for your enjoyment, bemusement and so on.

This coming Sunday the good people of NoSweat.org are bringing you good people a wonderful gig. Suicide Bid are going to be playing a rare gig at the Garage in London (along with the mighty Filaments, The Grit and Mouthwash) so please come and take a look! Suicide Bid is a musical collective featuring members and ex-members of awesome bands : King Prawn, The Filaments, Ex-Cathedra, Sonic Boom Six, The King Blues, Inner Terrestrials, The Foamers, Deathskulls, Black Radio, The Ambition and P.A.I.N and you can see the myspace HERE. The Bid haven’t played together since 16th August 2008 - so this show is going to be very special indeed. Speaking of which, we’ve recently been working on new Suicide Bid material and the stuff we’ve heard has been awesome so be very excited!

Get your ticket HERE.

Suicide Bid!

Okey dokey, I'm gonna be hitting everyone up with those full October tour dates and more news of the Back 2 Skool single next week, so don't leave our mailing list, block us on myspace or deny our existence between now and then.

Enjoy yourselves!
