Want a video? Here, have one in your face. Buy tickets now, you utter twat! Hmm, my freestyle skills are to be desired.

Yeah they are.

Here’s a bonus picture for the road (not of the road).

Some said it couldn’t be done.

Some said I was crazy to even consider it a possibility.

To those people I said no.

I will ride a Segway.

In other “news”, due to a chance alignment of “The Moon” and “Uranus”, I somehow managed to convince the incredible Darren Keen to pop by London as part of his 10 month tour as The Show Is The Rainbow on Wednesday September 14^th.

Here’s some liquid* (*not actually liquid) excitement for you:

Video for Don’t Vote filmed in one take for Love Drunk.

Introductory Spotify playlist

Also on the bill are us (natch), the intense live show of Elephant 12 (tipped for big things) and the sassy Hot Beds.

Not just that, also during the night:

TEST YOUR STRENGTH at the El Tablo Arm Wrestlo!

RISK YOUR LIFE at the Top Trump Deathmatch!

CURE INCURABLE DISEASES with finely groomed moustaches!

MUSCLE beach!

Some other stuff’s happened since the last mail too, like an interview video with us going online, a stream of a disasterous live show of ours going on line (not our fault, I promise!), Skope magazine featuring our BATBS video and Steve dancing, but this is far too exciting for any of that to get any more than a paragraph in this mail.

Steve.

As is abundantly clear in this video

Now available for classes and private tuition.

Bear At The Bus Stop is a featured video on Skope Magazine right now.  Watch it here if you haven’t yet (missing out).

Little House who we did an interview and a couple of songs with have put all their old episodes online!  Great!

Watching these videos makes you immune to malaria FACT.  That’s just how science works.

Happy new year!  Better late than never.  A phrase often used in the context of unplanned pregnancies and regarding Jim in general.

Watch us play Under Moonlight on Little House TV.  For those less patient, you can just skip forward to the 1:21:00 mark to see us play the show out.  I don’t think we’re anywhere else on this one, though I have only just noticed it’s online and my dinner’s getting cold.  Microwaved korma for one.  In my pants.  Not the korma in my pants, but me.  Though I am now curious as to korma in my pants would feel.  Not enough to sacrifice my dinner though, NO WAY, HOSEFACE.  Let’s just say I did that and I won’t.  MMM WARMS.

We were supposed to spend the day working on our incredible set for this Saturday at Scala, Kings Cross (believe me, it’s awe inspiring) but then Jim got all rock n roll on us and phoned at 16:00 saying “Oh man, I’m so rock n roll, check me out and my rock n roll lifestyle, I’ve just gotten up” or something to that effect.

In the meantime, Luke and I were all like SEVENTY TIMES THE NATIONAL AVERAGE of productivity and got so much stuff done that this one guy knocked on my door and was like “I can feel the productivity seeping out from under your door, it’s incredible, like nothing I’ve ever experienced before”.

You know who that guy was?  BLACK FRANCIS from the past traveled to the future.  Take that M Night Shyamalan!

Anyway, so as we’d been so productive, we thought we’d make a quick video too (Luke was spending ages sorting out a vocoder part and I was bored) which can now be viewed on the Youtubes RIGHT HERE.

So other than that, remember to buy your tickets for next Saturday’s gig right here as we’ve sold through our first two allocated batches already and LOVE SELLING THINGS TO YOU PEOPLE.  IT GIVES JIM THE RAGING HORN AS HE IS A SEX CRIMINAL.  We hate drummers though, fascists.

Didn’t take much editing as the source material was so great in the first place thanks to all the wonderful people who came along on Saturday morning. Enjoy!

Friday night was fun.  It was a shame that Fake Teak couldn’t play due to a lack of things for their drummer to hit, Peter Falconer’s impromptu set was highly entertaining, Hot Beds made us dance like we had two legs and then we played to a bear humping a speaker.

For those who didn’t make it, here’s a video to show what you missed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yf4pkRDWyUE.  Thanks to all those who came along, and in answer to those who have asked, I go climbing on tables and eat some cakes before wearing one of them like a crown.

This is a marvelous opportunity to star in the upcoming music video for the Neon Highwire song “Bear At The Bus Stop” (http://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/bear-at-the-bus-stop/id384570605?i=384570611).

We will be sorting out both the bear and the bus stop (and filming), but what we need from you is the visually weird and wonderful. Essentially, anything that doesn’t involve bears, bus stops or general bus stop attire is what we’re …looking for and we need as many people as possible to help out. Be who you want to be, do what you want to do, just do it on Saturday 25th September in London in front of a camera.

Bit vague, right? Well yes, intentionally so! To give you some ideas of the some examples that come to mind, we’re talking:

Dressing up as pirates and swordfighting.
A game of chess on a portable fold out table.
Look good in a tux? Strut!
Aerobics
Eating a cake with your bare (not bear) hands

As a thank you to all those who take part, there will be a thing afterwards with free beer, and everyone loves free beer, even bears.

Come along! Bring your friends! Jebus!
