I just do this on here because its easier to edit than on those facebook update things. Not that anyone reads either of those things. I'll try and keep it short.<div><br /></div><div>October- we went on tour. Sadly due to various reasons (out of our hands) we had to cancel half the fucking tour so it ended up being like 3 dates or something. However brighton, chichester and Kingston all treated us very well. We met some awesome people and played with some awesome bands. Other than that we did nothing but work and get drunk.</div><div><br /></div><div>November- We just got back from recording our mini album on friday. We Spent the whole week working at serafina studios in the small town of Eastbourne with the lovely Nick Kinnish. I won't bore you with a studio diary cause without pictures those things are shit. We didn't do much besides track our instruments really fast so we could go back on the internet and play farmville. We stayed with a lovely family who looked after us so nicely and everyone there were so welcoming and treated us like we weren't dicks. Anywho, we're getting the masters back to us on monday and I CAN'T WAIT. I have one song on my laptop for various reasons and i just want to send it to everyone but i can't. This week we'll be sorting out the release date, artwork and touring details for the record. I can't tell you much more right now than the mini album is going to be 7 songs long. I can't even tell you the name of it. cause we don't know it ourselves yet.</div><div><br /></div><div>NEXT UP- in like 2 weeks we're getting t-shirts, i'm sure if you're interested enough to read this you would have seen the t-shirt design. They're limited to 25 and believe me, it looks like they've already sold out but not officially so y'all just gonna have to be quick now! Then in like 3 weeks time we're off on tour with Battle For Paris again. More on that soon!</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>anywho.... here's a little promo video we made for our latest single. Keep an eye out on MTV for it! <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xp9Gm-aRe5A">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xp9Gm-aRe5A</a></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>xx</div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1579783350425734363-1179194502933030452?l=runwalkband.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10378463377439669626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579783350425734363.post-15942385375472610912009-10-08T05:52:00.001-07:002009-10-08T06:23:53.891-07:00September was a really quiet month for us really. We were meant to be on tour with Easy Hips but for various reasons it didn't happen.<br /><br />We did however manage to fit in a couple of gigs in september , the first being Offset. Our set as such wasn't great but we met easy hips and tonnes of other great bands. Offset was an awesome weekend but i think we could have enjoyed it more had we not had such a long weekend.<br />It started on Friday afternoon, we're driving down to brighton to play the freebutt w/ Easy Hips as a warm up for offset. We were grabbing a lift from the singer of <a href="http://www.myspace.com/bettypariso">Betty Pariso</a> ,Mazz Gambardella, however 10 minutes after leaving my house, still in Winchester, we manage to (not our fault) crash into the car infront of us leaving mazz's car looking like this: <a href="http://i34.tinypic.com/10pzy85.jpg">http://i34.tinypic.com/10pzy85.jpg</a><br />Anyway my dad gives us a lift to offset,we play and get very drunk all day and i pretended to be from the futureheads to get some free beer ( i don't they believed me but i guess it was just to get rid of me) Sunday was awful, the bands on that day were the ones i actually wanted to see but i managed to catch some sort of death cold (turned out to be swine flu) so i spent most of the day (and the next 7 days after that) wanting to die.<br /><br />The other gig we managed to play was just eventful. 21st September i wake up and theres a text from my mate who's new clubnight started that night and he didn't have any bands so he asked if we could play. "well, i might as well, help a mate out" i thought to myself. I wish i hadn't. We got there, the PA was appauling ( we ended up doing our set instrumental). So we set up in our corner there were definitely people there, but there was A) no where for them to stand and watch the bands (theres a wall that divides the room into bar/"music venue") and B) they were not interested in seeing music. The owner complained twice about the noise during our set we then went on to be stroppy teenagers and got very shitty about the venue, owner and the people that were there. So we got banned. SO BASICALLY NO ONE EVER, EVER GO TO THE MIKIKI LOUNGE!<br /><br />So in our time off since then we've managed to: finish writing the mini-album, Tom passed his driving test, I got a job (tom's on his way too), started sorting t-shirts for december tour, started writing for the BFP split. More on all this soon...<br /><br />Right it's october now, we've got some siiiiiiiiiiiiick gigs this month, here they are (can we call it a tour?!):<br /><br /><table bg border="0" cellpadding="2"

guys,<br />this week has been an emotional one for us, all our friends have left us for university and we're sitting at home doing shit all looking like idiots. We're desperately trying to save so we can record our mini album in November. Despite both being unemployed we will, thanks to the government and various temping jobs, manage to get the money (so Nick, if you're reading this... don't worry). We're going into the studio with Nick Kinnish @ Serafina Studios and we're so pleased to be able to go to such an awesome studio with an awesome producer who's worked with some awesome bands (Architects, blakfish, colour, youves, Data select Party) so we'll know it'll at least sound good sonically!<br /><br />Speaking of DSP, they announced they broke up the other day. Majorly sad about that, that band has sound tracked my summer since i was in year 10. <br /><br />But yeah, in other us-related news we've got an averagely busy October. Next week we're putting the finishing touches (and by that i mean i actually start learning them) to 3 new songs for the mini album. We shall then be demoing them the week after, we're also going to be recording a very special cover which should be featured on the Holy Roar Xmas Tape. We should also be having our first(of many) naked photo shoot. More details on how you can get your grubby mitts on those pictures ASAP! we SHOULD then be going on tour but I'm not sure how likely that is at the moment. we'll see how it goes.<br /><br />also if you can't possibly wait to hear the mini-album we're releasing a split EP with the lovely Battle For Paris in December. This'll also be on sale on our tour in December. It'll be limited to 50 copies all handmade by yours truly, all exclusive tracks, and super cheap so make sure you get yourself one when its out!<br /><br />riiiiiiiiiight, i have cramps in my hand from typing so much. <br /><br />shall update you lot soon on whats going with us.<br /><br />Matt<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1579783350425734363-1307982003766212773?l=runwalkband.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10378463377439669626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579783350425734363.post-83482029277656684802009-09-03T04:56:00.000-07:002009-09-03T05:03:58.808-07:00This weekend we're playing offset festival.

In Case you haven't heard of Holy Roar (seriously where the fuck have you been) but they've released some stuff by some rather amazing bands such as Gallows, Rolo Tomassi, Dananananaykroyd, Devil Sold His Soul, Throats, Maths and Youves (to mention a few) so as you can imagine we're SO excited to be part of the Holy Roar clan!<br /><br />here is what they said on their website:<br /><br />"New Roars On The Block" 4-way split 7"<br />Featuring miniature spazz-drums-bass-indie-freakout kids Run, Walk!, OTT Bucket Full Of Teeth-esque drum machine screamo from Le Swing, nudity-loving Brighton ROCKIN screamo tykes Easy Hips and finally hipster grind rockers Dreamboats, this is looking like 6 tracks of some of the most promising UK bands that remember golden eras for screamo and noise-rock. Limited to 320 copies in Holy Roar packaging, this will be out in Aug/Sept. You can listen to clips of all bands on our myspace or download the mp3 that has clips of all bands here<br /><br />To celebrate this we're going to posting both of our newest songs on myspace for all you lot to listen to, in fact we're even going to be uploading the official version of "Time is Catching Up With Me" as a free download!<br /><br />this will obviously be supported by tonnes and tonnes of touring so watch this space for more news on that!<br /><br />right now we're pretty much sorted for the july tour with Battle For Paris, who have recently just uploaded a track from their forthcoming EP on their myspace and its absolutely gob smackingly good seriously go have a listen! www.myspace.com/battleforparisuk<br /><br />anyway, to conclude, go listen to our new songs on

We felt somewhat out of place on the bill which was filled with electronic/dance acts but for some reason we seemed to be well recieved. The other bands we played with and you should check out were: <span style="font-weight: bold;">SHEGOTSICK</span> (one girl, one boy rapping, singing and dancing over an awesome backing track, they had a song about masterbation that me and Tom reckon could easily reach number 1) and <span style="font-weight: bold;">Last Action Hero</span> (one man electronica with guitar, keyboard and sequencer, this guy was sick, ranging from really ambient slow stuff to full on dance-ya-pants-off-rave)<br /><br />anyway, things are looking like you guys are gonna start hearing the songs from our 7" a lot quicker than we thought, sometime soon we're going in to do a live session for Surge Radio, a southampton based student radio which should be awesome, i don't know when it'll air or how many songs we'll play but i'm sure there'll be some new ones in there. Also soon, we should have song appearing on an audioblog thing for a sick label based in ireland, which will be streaming for a week from their myspace/website/blog etc so when that's up we'll let you guys know!<br /><br />anyway,<br />i think that's all for now.<br /><br />Matt<br /><br /><br />PS. we started a twitter (www.twitter.com/runwalk) and a purevolume (www.purevolume.com/runwalk) why don't you follow/become a fan of us :)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1579783350425734363-4354017006616939827?l=runwalkband.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10378463377439669626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579783350425734363.post-73903628741041547702009-01-19T11:35:00.000-08:002009-01-19T11:36:39.035-08:00the final mixes of the songs for our next release.<br /><br />they sound pretty banging if say so myself!<br /><br /><br />we're not sure what we're doing with them at the moment but more on that soon...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1579783350425734363-7390362874104154770?l=runwalkband.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10378463377439669626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579783350425734363.post-72464125976037064062009-01-11T13:14:00.000-08:002009-01-11T13:22:43.209-08:00We played goonite club at barden's in london last tuesday and it was S-I-C-K we played to a really lovely crowd and met lots of nice new people. currently we have no new gigs booked, which is a bugger but we're currently rather busy with other stuff thats all backstage. more on that soon.<br /><br />but something to do with you guys: i'm currently mixing a demo that we recorded with our mate in november , its called "projections on the wall" and if you've seen us recently we've been playing it live. it was originally meant to come as a free download with the 7" but seeing as we're releasing the 7" a lot later than we thought we would be we're going to just wack it on myspace. we've also got two other songs including a massively epic one including violin and too many loops and a re recording of an old song.<br /><br />anyway, more exciting news to come soon, and hopefully we'll get down to booking some gigs.<br /><br />peace xx<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1579783350425734363-7246412597603706406?l=runwalkband.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10378463377439669626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579783350425734363.post-42510598254494356012009-01-01T09:58:00.001-08:002009-01-01T10:09:27.741-08:002008 has been an eventful year for run,WALK!

played an almost awesome show at the joiners yesterday.<div>thanks to the people that came to see us, it was nice of you to make the trek to soton.</div><div>the only problem was my amp kinda broke during the second song but luckily lewis from colour stepped in and lent me his head which was nice of him so thanks to him and to the colour boys who were so nice to us.</div><div><br /></div><div>yet again we've changed our plans. we've decided to record with Jamie Field (tubelord, colour and caesura) in Kingston, we think he'll suit our sound a lot more than Oli will.</div><div>but yeah it's the same dates and everything, but it's gonna be manic, we get back from recording then we have a gig with Brontide (ex IWACS drummer), i hate saying that and I'm sure he hates it too but it gets some people and an excuse to listen to them and to truly see how amaze they are.</div><div>but yeah this gig is at the railway on the 21st of december.</div><div><br /></div><div>it's gonna be sick, we're dressing up as xmas people, we're trying to get other people to do it as well, but it'll probably just be me and tom. oh well.</div><div><br /></div><div>anyway, i'll do another one when we've recorded.</div><div><br /></div><div>xx</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1'

had a hardcore weekend.<div>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)</div><div><br /></div><div>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.</div><div>both tom and i were rather ill, our equipment was fucked and we'd had a long day.</div><div>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.</div><div><br /></div><div>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.</div><div><br /></div><div>but yeah, London this week (we hope) and of the course the joiners which if it all works out, should be two sick shows!</div><div><br /></div><div>xx</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1'

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! </div><div><br /></div><div>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...</div><div><br /></div><div>anyway, thats all for now, remember tickets for the joiners!</div><div><br

/></div><div>this weekend, we're recording for our CD thats comes with the 7", the CD will have 5 tracks:</div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Time is

songs (not yet decided)</span></div><div><br /></div><div>this CD will only come with the 7".</div><div><br /></div><div>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!</div><div><br /></div><div>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.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>well then,</div><div>thats all for now</div><div><br /></div><div>Matt</div><div><br /></div><div

the world,<div>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.</div><div>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!</div><div>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.</div><div>but anyway, we've definitely going on tour now in feb and the dates (unfilled) are on our myspace page.</div><div><br /></div><div>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.</div><div><br /></div><div>anyway that's all for now.</div><div><br /></div><div>check the myspace for more up to date shit.</div><div><br /></div><div>www.myspace.com/runwalk</div><div><br /></div><div>Mr P-C</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1579783350425734363-4905918329163059128?l=runwalkband.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10378463377439669626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579783350425734363.post-71141578060817364152008-10-20T07:23:00.000-07:002008-10-20T07:36:27.098-07:00Hey all,<div>this week Tom did his first two gigs and they both went pretty well (except for a few hiccups here and there) London was awesome, we arrived having doubts- we thought people would dismiss us as we were by far the youngest people in the venue by couple of years at least but everyone was open minded some seemed to enjoy our set. Thanks to Garry for putting us on, he's a great guy and even offered us a very special slot sometime next year which should be great! We also met a nice (but slightly drunk) guy named Phil who was interested in booking shows for us, but we couldn't decide whether he was being serious or just humouring us.</div><div>Next up Winchester, it was a great show, nice to see lots of people coming down to shows, El Rodeo and BWL were amazing except for a few hiccups which can only be blamed on the TERRIBLE sound which was thanks to the new sound man at the railers, Keiran- he's a sound guy and everything but he's only been working there for 3 weeks now, but he'll get it soon. I felt we played quite well, but still Tom and i haven't really got the tightness i feel we could achieve, we work incredibly well together (if i say so myself) its just need more time and practice to get used to it.</div><div><br /></div><div>Next gig is in Luton on the 28th of November, i really am quite honoured to be playing on the this bill, the other bands consist of Mirror!Mirror! and Haemostatic Picnic Races who are both incredible bands and i really can't wait for this show.</div><div>On the 19th of November we're heading into the studio to record drums for Time is Catching Up With Me and 3,5,10 (yeah, thats right we've changed it) and i'm not sure whats happening after that really, we were originally going to record the rest by ourselves but after our atrocious attempt at Classroom ( which has now been taken off myspace) we're having second thoughts, but anyway we'll give it a go and see if its good enough.</div><div><br /></div><div>right now something thats pissing me off is our lack of driving abilities, currently Tom is ahead of me in that field and is currently receiving lessons ( i think), where as i haven't even sent off for my provisional. we have plans to go on tour in feb half term so if we wanna do that (and do it with less stress and cost) we NEED to learn to drive by then.</div><div><br /></div><div>oh well, wish us luck and thats all for now.</div><div><br /></div><div>xx</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1579783350425734363-7114157806081736415?l=runwalkband.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10378463377439669626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579783350425734363.post-48722718953443873822008-10-12T15:45:00.000-07:002008-10-12T15:50:28.033-07:00hey guys,<div>me and tom spend blood ages making a new song in tom's bedroom with his little recording set up of two mics. woo.</div><div><br /></div><div>anyway you can hear the new song at www.myspace.com/runwalk it's called classroom and features both tom and myself shakily singing over a roughly mixed ambient, and not song.</div><div><br /></div><div>this week Tom has his first gig with me at the escape bar in london on the 16th with The Capsized smiles and Rose Elinor Dougall(ex-pipettes)<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;

Tom will also be sharing the vocal duties with me, giving me more time for more complicated bass/pedal stuff and running around. I'm tempted to start doing a "blakfish" where you run into the crowd hoping to hit someone but fortunately you don't normally. however I'm not as hedonistic as blakfish, and also with my bass having a longer neck i fear it may result in some serious damage. basically all I'm saying don't come to our gigs anymore, you may lose an eye.</div><div><br /></div><div>this has turned into a massive essay, it was only meant to be a couple of lines and i probably still had more important stuff to say but oh well.</div><div><br /></div><div>peace xx</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-size: 10px; white-space: pre; "><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2A-dExWa560&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/2A-dExWa560&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></span><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1579783350425734363-7124521294744222000?l=runwalkband.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10378463377439669626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579783350425734363.post-11227735978209416492008-09-02T09:39:00.000-07:002008-09-02T15:28:52.985-07:00Hey there, <div>it's <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Matt</span> here, I'm here to inform you about some major changes going on around here.</div><div><br /></div><div>James has decided to quit the band, sensibly he decided that he wanted to put his college studies and other commitments first and the band was taking up too much time and effort. There are no hard feelings between us, we're still the best of friends but i always felt James' hasn't really been into the band as of recently so i think it's best he called it a day. However he won't be just leaving, he's playing one last gig with me as run,WALK!  it's at Hampton's Bar in <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Southampton</span> on September 19<span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Th</span> (<span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Friday</span>) we will be supporting Lonely Ghosts and Will Doyle there are more acts to be confirmed so we'll get back to on that. It'd be great if everyone could come down and show <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">James</span> some love as its his last gig. James and I started this band a couple of years ago as a jam band and i guess it just got a bit too serious for his liking and i wish him all the luck in future with his college &amp; university courses which <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">I'm</span> sure he'll ace!</div><div><br /></div><div>so what's happening right now then? we'll we're( <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">I'm</span>) not breaking up, James informed a few months back that he didn't wish to continue the band past the end of college. so me, not wanting to stop the band that i have put my life and soul into for the past 2 years i went looking for a drummer to join at the end of college. well he's joining now. His name is Tom Clements, he's the drummer from <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">Feralmare</span>(1st band in our top 8)  as well. This man may be half (quarter)the size of <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">James</span> in height but he certainly knows his way around the drum kit, and another plus he's like one of our biggest fans so he's it's gonna work well. Tom's first gig is yet to be confirmed but it will be soon. Tom and I are going to take the band to another level, and will be gigging, recording and releasing  stuff as much as possible. Anyway more information on that later. Here's what tom looks like :</div><div><img src="http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p180/kazkayde/pin%20up%20girls/pin-up.jpg" /><br /></div><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1579783350425734363-1122773597820941649?l=runwalkband.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10378463377439669626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579783350425734363.post-79373180381321100422008-08-27T09:28:00.000-07:002008-08-27T09:30:01.250-07:00we'll be booking shows again soon, there'll also be more news on our releases and recording and stuff.<div><br /></div><div>i kinda need a job first.</div><div><br /></div><div>i'll get back to you next week probably.</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1579783350425734363-7937318038132110042?l=runwalkband.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10378463377439669626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579783350425734363.post-5737851009863378542008-08-19T15:30:00.000-07:002008-08-19T15:31:40.904-07:00<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10px; ">So yeah,<br />long time no type eh?<br />i really haven't had time to do this for ages cause of exams, starting a new year, gigs and other stuff.<br /><br />but anyway, besides a few gigs here and there ( particularly in the last few weeks) we haven't really been doing much.<br />you see basically since our april tour we've been stuck in a state of limbo.<br />basically to break it down even more, we played a gig for a nice guy called Seb, it was at his house with loads of other sweet bands. His friend Brett liked our set (yay) and said he wanted to manage us and release records blah blah.<br />so we were like " ok ...." 3 months later, still haven't really spoken to him and we're just doing like one gig a month but basically we played another house party and then a gig in bridgwater ( where brett lives) and we sorted everything out.<br /><br />so basically ( i have to stop saying that!) the plan is to have a new release out by the end of the year ( or the start of 09) which will be released on Brett's label " in it for the money records"(formerly of tiger force) we've pretty much got the songs written, all it is a matter of sorting out where to record, who with, and how to fund it. we've got some pretty exciting plans for this release which includes, touring a lot (fuck college man, i got such good grades that i dont even need to go to uni*) touring a lot more, adding more people on myspace and maybe even making a video. (not sure whether i was meant to say that) the release will also almost definitely be on 7" which is cool and we're going to include a code with it so if you buy it you can download the songs for free so you guys have no excuse.<br /><br />anyway, we played a gig with the almighty blakfish and tubelord last night which seemed to go really well compared to that horrendous show at the george the previous thursday. and some nice guy reviewed us in his blog. here it is, i'm not sure whether its good or not but here we go.<br /><br /><br />"Um… but anyway run, Walk! are on first, I get there I think it must have been somewhere halfway through their first song. I maintain they're probably Winchester's best band at the moment, not that I really know too much about any others. Just bass and drums, which makes for an interesting angle on the whole Kinsella-style thing they do at least, and plus this is one band where the *bassist* is the tortured artist there, which is novel. Undeniably teenaged, but that doesn't mean they aren't going interesting places. Pretty passionate performance too, at least from bassist/singer Matt, tumbling around the place angstily whilst drummer wins over my friend Ella's heart by just tapping happily away "like a pleased five year-old" (not my words). Manage to blag a free copy of their EP too- they didn't sound too proud of it when handing it over but as far as self-released EPs sold at shows go, its really good. Look out for them in future, I can only assume they're only getting better."<br /><br />so yeah, thats all for now i'll update you soon when we have more news on the new release and other stuff.<br /><br /><br />Matt xx<br /><br /><br />PS. because Brett owns us now, please forward all Show Booking (unless local)/Press/Industry stuff - Brett (+44) 07921 811 673 contact_brett@hotmail.com</span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1579783350425734363-573785100986337854?l=runwalkband.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10378463377439669626noreply@blogger.com0
