Blah, etc

As I've said before, Issue 2 is well and truly out now. I've been selling them at shows around the Southampton area so if you want one come and find me.

I'm sending a few to Pete Mild Peril so Norwich folk can easier get hold of a copy. Should be sending some to Jack WWHRD at some point too, so the more hardcore Norwich folk can also get one ;)

I've already started work on Issue 3, which so far has a ton of live reviews and a very brief, very impromptu interview with Tom from Above Them which is kinda funny in that awkward way.

That'll do for now, I just wanted to post something to remind everyone we're still alive.

Slam Dunk bands

Stealing news from Punktastic... here are the first announced bands for Slam Dunk Festival:

New Found Glory
Capdown (exclusive reformation shows)
The King Blues (although rumour has it they're pulling out because Itch's girlfriend is giving birth the weekend of the festival)
Four Year Strong
Set Your Goals
Rx Bandits
Every Avenue
Out of Sight


Tour date scheduling suggests that Breathe Carolina are playing too (i.e. they've announced their tour dates with convenient gaps the dates of Slam Dunk).

Anyway, it's two days this year. Saturday 29th May at University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield and Sunday 30th May at University of Leeds (same venue as the past couple of years). It'll be six stages (plus a seventh stage/bar of DJs/electro/etc). Tickets are dirt cheap - £25adv - and check SlamDunkMusic.com for more info.

Look! Not a Hidden Talent tour! (I.e. here are King Blues dates...)

The King Blues head out on a couple of runs of dates in April/May. No supports announced yet. Tickets are quite cheap (well, relatively, anyway) and onsale now from the usual suspects.

The King Blues: April/May 2010 UK Tour
Saturday 10th April @ Komedia, Brighton
Sunday 11th April @ Waterfront, Norwich
Monday 12th April @ O2 Academy, Manchester
Tuesday 13th April @ O2 Academy 2, Newcastle
Thursday 15th April @ Garage, Glasgow
Sunday 25th April @ O2 Academy 2, Birmingham
Monday 26th April @ Phoenix, Exeter
Tuesday 27th April @ Shepherd's Bush Empire, London
Saturday 1st May @ Rock City, Nottingham
Tuesday 4th May @ Arts Centre, Colchester
Wednesday 5th May @ Wedgewood Rooms, Portsmouth

I'd imagine there might be a few more dates announced, so keep checking their website/Facebook/etc.
