Zzzzzz,
Knackered. Apologies for not keeping you informed with rockfeedback's numerous movements and motions in the past fortnight-plus. The exciting news in short? We can tell you:
We have another club-night this week - on Thursday 26th, The Basement hits Highbury once more, with a stellar new-band bill, entailing Morning Runner, The Kooks, and Absentee... More news via the banner above - click it, damn you. Tix fast selling, so be quick to reserve if you're around.
'rockfeedback tv' debuts on MTV2... here are some news-stories - 'NME' and Drowned In Sound. We urge you to tune in when it begins - June 4th / June 5th. View the official website via the link at the foot of the page.
And we're getting a new office / address. It'll be:
rockfeedback ltd, 3A Highbury Crescent, London N5 1RN.
About time. Means we can wave good-bloody-bye to High Wycombe, Bucks. Home of oversized supermarkets and despair. Please forward all mail accordingly to the above as of June 1st. Not before then, mind. Thanks!
Here's to a new residency living behind the worldwide-renowned Garage venue...
UK Chart-action, this week: Oasis top the singles chart with 'Lyla' (making them, officially, the longest-serving UK chart act of the past decade); Kaiser Chiefs proclaim 'Everyday I Love You Less & Less' at ten; Mylo manages 13 with 'In My Arms'; New Order and Scissor Sister, Ana Matronic are 20 with 'Jetstream'; 'Fishing For A Dream' is 32 from Turin Brakes; 'Goodnight Goodnight' from Hot Hot Heat is 36; current Band of the Week Antony & The Johnsons are 44; 'Hey Man...' from Eels is 45; Modey Lemon garner 71 with 'Sleepwalkers'. Albums... System Of A Down 'Mesmerize' by entering at 2; Maximo Park score 15 with 'A Certain Trigger'; and The Duke Spirit's 'Cuts Across The Land' obtains 40.
If there's one thing you do this week: buy The Magic Numbers' debut single proper, 'Forever Lost'. Make it chart, baby!
Back soon. Promise.
