VIDEO LIVE @ Proud galleries

our first show with Gemma our new guitarist (and keyboardist -she's playing organ on that track) ; the song here is "Time for the Devil" ; a saturday night at 'Proud' Camden, London ... it was crasy, crasy crasy ; we loaded the van after the show in the middle of a burlesque show and people beeing sick on the floor... awful. but we met a good american band that night, Royal Bangs. they were very nice people, they lent us some gear that night. they had problem with their bass amp during their show, and they were pretty scared about the Camden saturday night madness...!! I hope those guys are ok now... jehn x

GemmaThompson: new UK guitarist !

what's up?

yesterday we drove back from Rennes, it took us 10 hours to get back to London. We droped Raph our drummer at a friend's studio in Stamford Hill, he's recording a new album with his band Underground Railroad. he's a very busy man at the moment!

Today we're at our house with Matt Farrar our sound man. (by the way visit his blog at www.wotarackit.blogspot.com)

he's back with us for a while after beeing on tour with Gemma Ray and the Archie Bronson Outfit. We're playing tonight in London an early show at The Proud Galleries in Camden.


It's gonna be the baptism of fire for Gemma, who's been enlisted to play guitar with us onstage for our UK shows.
We took her on board after watching videos of her on youtube were she plays very noisy guitars in her band called 'Hindley'. After few rehearsals we realised how much she is a master of guitar feedbacks and distortion. amasing!

See Gemma for the first time on stage with us tonight in London @ The Proud Gallery

Hey,

as (maybe) you will notice, we had a problem with the guitar!! it only arrives at the middle of the song... it's alright , we rocked it out as hard as we could! haha but sorry for those who know the song (few of you I'm sure) , next time we'll be careful with our wires -or maybe we get a new guitarist! :) (only jocking of course :)

anyway enjoy the 'disturbing' special tv effects! gosh!

love,

Jehn
