..but well done to friend of the band Andrew Dubber of New Music Strategies.
Two or three months back he launched a cheeky and audacious bid to get to the CMJ Music Marathon in Noo Yoik City. He had been asked to speak on some panel or other, but the invitation didn’t extend to flights, accomodation, […]

Greasy Moss Was The Final Hurdle

Wednesday, August 15th, 2007

The CD copies of “Lighting and Electrical” arrived today.
…but only after another ‘Eventually….’
So.
Entirely in keeping with the rest of this album they arrived after being temporarily mislaid by TNT, apparently lost in their ultra complex system for an agonizing 36-hours.
