BROKEN HEART MUSIC VIDEO - and nicks fridge/bed saga

YO,

so we did the video, filmed at our 229 gig. Hope yall like it...
Being a general fan of vcr (ive got loads of vcr's, home alone, resevoir dogs...loads) weve given this video a vcr vibe - we didnt want to fuck about with it too much but if you look closely we have messed with the timing of all the clips - brookesy had to sing broken heart at double and half speed when filming and i cant wait for those clips to leak..





So we've done the video, done the gigs (tunbridge wells this thursday is the last one before release) we're now looking towards EP 2...theres a lot of lovely talk of remixes, and we've started writing so i'm all excited..

In other news..

Fridgeboy Brookes has not managed to sell the fridge, its now reposted for £45 quid...no bites as of yet but fingers crossed Brookesy.... he's also trying to sell his bed - its fucked dont buy it that thing has been the bain of my life all year the slats fall out at least once a day, til he sellotaped them down...then they lasted for two days before they buckled again.. He also got the bed for 100 quid and was looking for £50 profit on top of that... after one guy looked at it (he turned it down, found one for forty quid then texted brookes next day asking if he knew any good van hire companies....outrageous) hes rescinded to £100

here is his description

URGENT- BED MUST GO TODAY, £100 ONO. COLLECTON ONLY.

Ikea pinewood king size bed (160x200cm) with wooden slatted base and very comfortable ikea matress. In excellent condition.
Should fit comfortably in most double bedrooms.
Comes with two pinewood ikea bedside tables, also in very good condition.

If you are interested please call me 07791471499.

Kind Regards

Nick

229 went pretty good, we took the van up and sessioned GTA San Andreas on the ps2 to and from Great Portland Street...

In other news Nick's trying to sell his Stella Artois mini fridge [which he got for free] we advised £10-£20...Its on gumtree for £75 go check it out

Jim's Blog



Right, ok. Following Hank Ford's and Max Rothery's blogs was always going to be difficult, but here goes. This is Jim here, or some people call me James but either way my surnames Valentine, so. Right, I hope everyones enjoying the hot spell of weather; I certainly am! In fact, it's bloody brilliant.




First of all I'd like to announce how excited I am at the prospect of playing at the Tunbridge Wells Forum on the 14th of July. It's a venue Ive wanted to play for atleast 2 weeks now, so yea, tremendously greaaaat. If anyone is in the Tunbridge Wells area on the 14th, It would be great if you came down and watched our SHOW.




Ok one more Goodluck Jonathan related item. Ok? Right, yea. . . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmgvPJUCKzY&feature=related
This little link will take you to us performing 'Broken Heart' into 'Backs to the Wall'







This is a friend of ours called Chris looking a little sheepish!







This is my new puppy
Next up, what better way to lift spirits and improve the national football team than to ban them from playing for 2 years! Chris was most upset. But you never know it may be reversed. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/world_cup_2010/8786834.stm
I'll tell you what guys, Im going leave it at this I think. I know it's hard to sit still for a while sometimes. Ok, right so keep your tool strapped up fellas and see you at the forum.
Cheers, Jim of Goodluck Jonathan.
PS, Nick is next up alright?

Hank



Hi Hank here



Earlier this week, Max drew my attention to the Athena B crash.
Here are a couple of pictures of MS Athena B, a ship that crashed onto Brighton beach in January 1980.

It was the reason for the small railway that runs along the seafront in front of volks and C2

It was removed a month later because of complaints from the locals.









Been watching some Casiokids street performances today
Here is my favourite

Transfers very well from the original


Hope everyone has been enjoying the delicious sun this week.

Up next Jim!

Dear Readers Today is my turn to blog:

Here is a piano track i found on my laptop that we used in the recording session at Brighton Electric. I find it soothing.



Hope you have a nice day.

Lots of love x Max

Hank you're next x
