yupyup

we had a hardcore weekend.
we played a show in luton on friday. the george 2nd is an awesome venue with free beer (for us) and free entry (for you)

there was an decent sized crowd for an out of town gig , the only problem was we played like shit. if you were there and bothered to look us up and are bothering to read this, we're sorry.
both tom and i were rather ill, our equipment was fucked and we'd had a long day.
in the end we couldn't hear shit all, tom's trousers were covered in snot, my voice was screwed, my pedals were fucked and tom managed to create a beast of a crack on his ride( it's awesome, its pretty much a fat crack going all the way around the bell of the cymbal, hopefully someday it fall off and we'll just be left with a mini cymbal 10cm across left on the stand) but basically tom only has one cymbal thats not cracked now.

but yeah we played with a couple of awesome bands: Mirror!Mirror! and Yohoghani, sadly HPR broke up the day or two before , i was really looking forward to playing with them.

but yeah, London this week (we hope) and of the course the joiners which if it all works out, should be two sick shows!

recording is the word

yooooooo,
first things first, we have three gigs coming in the coming week and a half.

Luton- 28th Nov
London- 3rd Dec
Southampton- 7th Dec

for more details check the old myspace (www.myspace.com/runwalk)

also to the local people, we got tickets for the Joiners gig in southampton yesterday, they cost £5, come find us or ask through myspace/facebook. this gig is gonna be ace.

anyway, last weekend we took over my house to record 3 tracks they turned out alright. we could only go so far due to RAM limiting us on our mate's computer, however we will be finishing off the tracks after xmas. one is 6 mins long and contains violin! 

as of today we've finally found a place to record our 7". it's terribly exciting. we're recording late december in London with Oli Horton famed for his work with Foals and Youthmovies, we're proper excited and hopefully they'll turn out well...

anyway, thats all for now, remember tickets for the joiners!

nonono

no no no George this thursday. but oh well. 

anyway, we've got a busy a few weeks coming up, more about that in a couple days time (need to confirm some things)

this weekend, we're recording for our CD thats comes with the 7", the CD will have 5 tracks:

Time is Catching up with me
3,5,10
Projections on the wall
untitled
and a remix of one of the above songs (not yet decided)

this CD will only come with the 7".

anyway, this weekend we're recording projections on the wall and the untitled song which should be great. we're basically taking over my house and we're going to record in loads of different room just cause we can!

also i forgot to mention that a while back, Tom and I recorded a music video for "why can't you do it for one day" it was to help out our two mates with their media project and i haven't seen it yet but apparently it's looking good-it'll probably be up on youtube within a few weeks.


well then,
thats all for now

fireworks give you neckache...

hey the world,
well, yet again long time since i've updated this. but not much happens to our band so we need to save it up for the grand release once every two weeks or so.
basically we had some photos done today for press by master of camera trickery Steven Quinn, we spent way too much time just pissing around and not taking enough shots of us looking indie-tastic!
anyway, we're not actually recording on the 19th due to various reasons, we need to sort this out but this also means that the release of the 7" is probably going to be pushed back maybe to april -WTF i hate time and having no money.
but anyway, we've definitely going on tour now in feb and the dates (unfilled) are on our myspace page.

oh yeah gigs. i said last time i played the george in Andover with James i said that i'd never set foot in Andover again, of course this not been the case. Tom fucking lives in the bloody place. But also we have been offered a gig at the George on the 20th of November and Tom wants to take it because he's never played there before so you know.

anyway that's all for now.

check the myspace for more up to date shit.
