There’s some new gig dates added to the live events post below. The Renegade Brass Band are playing the Raynor Lounge, Sheffield on February 25th alongside the The Tuesday Club Residents.

As the poster above suggests, we’re honoured to play X-Ray Horse’s first birthday. Congratulations guys, I didn’t know you could keep a horse contaminated with that amount of concentrated radiation for the period of a 12 months and still pull off a great line up like this one, effort. We’re headlining the evenings festivities, supported by the Elephant Keys, Nephu Huzzband, Roman Android and DJ’s sets by Lucy? and X-Ray Horse DJ’s and a special set from our tentacle trio DJ, Baron Von Badd.

BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE…

We’re also supporting the Broken Door in the launch of their debut album on the 27th of February @ The Dog and Partridge in Bolton. We originally put them on last year at the still hiatal improv night Consoul and recently did a spot of recording for Emma from TBD, also be on the look out for Barkers remix of a new Broken Door track.

Good friends From the Kites of San Quentin are performing one of their future dub, vocoder, wonder marvel sets. Should be interesting. Last time we got together was great and seriously painful the next morning. Shouts to El Bloody Boyo.

Also on the bill are Manchester based quintet, With That Knife playing, what has to been described to me as a northern take of At The Drive In & Motion City Soundtrack. Check ‘em out

See you Friday,

- Out.

They’ll also be performing a few songs for your listening pleasure. BBC Raw Talent Sheffield has had an amazing line up of guests including The Legend of the 7 Black Tentacles and recently the ReMixed in Sheffield collective.  Be sure to look out for the remix of Dogface by Barker and Jack Opus.

On Friday, I’ll be Manchester. From the Kites of San Quentin are hosting ‘This City is Ours’ and are bringing the Tentacles and myself over the pennines to rock a special one off performance in Salford at the Sacred Trinity Church. Tickets are £5 in advance and it’s being powered by Gash soundsytem. I’ve been told that the building is fantastic and is an amazing place to hold a live performance, because of the gigs surroundings tickets are limited and punters have been asked to respect the building, so no funny business. Saturday we’ll be playing down in Bristol at The Junction.

I’m also having some technical difficulties with some plug-in’s on the site so at the moment the Tweet Feed and the MP3 Player seem to be down, I’ll have those back up and running A.S.A.P
Update:
Thanks to AFDIT the site’s little issues are all resolved.

For those in Manchester on December 4th I highly suggest you grab a ticket to see us and the electronic marvel that is From The Kites of San Quentin. We really enjoyed playing with them back in August at Thirsty Ear with Kid Kanevil.
