We Noticed That You're Gangster

Dear everyone and no-one who reads this,
Busy week for the people who notice that you're gangster. Mods coming up, the show taking a seriously long time last week and severely draining all our energy, and all the other crap has resulted in a change...

Our show will be aired LIVE, starting from the next one on the 27th of February. That means less time spent on the show, we have to learn new stuff in the studio to make sure nothing goes wrong, and we'll be making mistakes we can't edit out this time.

So... news, yeah?
Well, we interviewed Rab, the lead guitarist from Glasvegas last night. Great guy, and you'll be able to listen to the thing in our last show of Hilary Term, on the Friday of 8th week.
Also, we're grumpy about our time slot, which is probably the worst time to have a show in the whole week (especially considering that we play music aimed at the people who are going out and so can't listen). Not too happy, and will probably be requesting a change of our slot.

We're both pretty excited about the upcoming show, the track list is really something special, drawing on some of our old favourites as well as exciting new stuff for you to get into.
