LAST TRANSMISSION

Last transmission is going to record this Saturday at blackisle studios. gonna do our single, neon nothingness , looking forward to it. trying my best to find somewhere to record the rest of our songs so we can produce an album before sidney leaves in mid june to study in Sydney. yeah he's going . im happy for him, NS was killing him and more importantly he's going to be with tara.

i guess the band is going to be in stasis for awhile til he comes back at the end of the year. a great shame, we were building up momentum and the 4 of us were really starting to gel together. but its not over. anyway recording has always been more of a priority to me then live performances. that silly little inexplicable need to leave your mark. why though? i think subconsiously its us coming to terms with our own mortality and limited sense of time. sometimes there is only now, im always planning for the future, practicing for future gigs , recording. i know listening back on a record is like looking at a photo of a good day. nothing beats playing there and then with the other three, il never trade those times for anything. the fun , the friendship and the music.

Sid is an indispensible part of the band, he's the joker, the bounce in the step, the unending corn field, the swagger and of course the killer bass lines.

its going to suck losing him as a bassist for awhile, but screw that. more than being my damn bassist , sid was a mate, he's not dead so i mean he is a mate, a real good one at that. when hes gone im gonna miss his humour, his " dionysian debauchery" , his company. gonna miss him
