Lol@Flyers

Saturday May 10th (3pm) - Fucked Up / Hard Skin / Invasion @ First Unit Church - Buy Tickets HERE.

UPDATE

Hey everyone (except if you live in Portsmouth). Here is a quick update of some things. We are sitting here bored in Bristol, because our show in Pompey got cancelled because someone died or something, so we went to Bath, which was nice, and then we came home and watched British Sweet 16, which is actually just 18 year olds. Then we watched Skins.

Vice just put a Year of the Pig video on their site - we played it in Montreal and the crew filmed it. I'm sure it turned out great - I haven't watched it, because I'm a busy guy, but I'm sure you will all enjoy it. Did I mention that that record is out now in the UK? Also on itunes.

A direct link to the video is right HERE.

They also just "blogged" about the mix tape. So if you'd like to jump over to their site to be redirected right back here, you can do that HERE. You can also leave comments on their site about how amazing we are, or on our site about how indie rock we are. Or on the DEERHUNTER blog about how it was our idea first in the first place.


Our friend Greg is making a FU dvd - its all the bands that played our October weekend last year. You can view screen shots HERE.

Check out the cover art mockup - its like one of our 7"'s GET IT?

NEW LINEUP

UK

Hi, we are in the UK now. Camden just blew up, which is odd, because the last time we were here, the Cutty Sark did the same thing. We'll be back in September, so I'd watch out if you live near Big Ben.

Speaking of Camden, we play around there tommorow, which is valentines day, and also Andy Cappers birthday. Plus, you will be able to get the UK version of the Year of the Pig 12" on Vice, which was named Single of the Week in NME next week:

Fucked Up + The Dresdens + Outcry Collective Recommended

Thu Feb 14 Barfly, 49 Chalk Farm Road, London , NW1 8AN

WE PLAY AT 9.45

Also we've been in the studio. Check it out.
