--> Yay.. everything is finally launched.. CD launch went off, was in mid December at a place called Ric's here in Brisbane.. Place got packed out ( some of our friends couldn't get it ), not that its hard to pack Ric's out.. it probably only holds about 80 people max..

Was a wierd night, a big release of emotion and lots of feelings of "thank fuck its sorted". after i felt pretty numb about it all.. it was WAY too long in the making .. lol

Cd went live on itunes yesterday thanks to a little thing called Tunecore. Cost us around 30-40$ for the year but we have the cd for sale across itunes america, australia, uk, canada and japan!!! cheap as!

We also have the physical cd for sale, you can pick one of these babys up for 10$ AUD + postage ( i still need to send you one JDG!! ).

Crazy thing is that the physical cd costs 10$.. but if you bought the mp3's ( because the price is set at what each tunes costs ) it would cost you 15$ .... oh well..

you can buy a physical cd from either our myspace here link or our website here link using the paypal button on each page.. oh and dont forget our very cool tshirts too

anyway, enough of that shit.....

this year we have decided to chase some bigger gigs.. looking at doing the support thing for bigger bands...

Cocorosie and mum are touring in march here in Brisbane, and ive been email frantically to try and find who i would talk to in regards to getting a support slot.
Some people have been saying i need to talk to the booking agent, others say i need to talk to the band manager.. most of the time i cant find contacts for either..

any ideas? any particular way i should approach? ( we have been avoiding the "gush-gush we love your band" approach ) what kind of money do support's get??

thanks
