It’s been a while. Maybe too long, or potentially too soon even. Who knows? You’re a load of people and I am one. I know you’re busy, you don’t have time for rambling preambles (or brambles), so I’m gonna give you executive types some bullet point love so you know what is what within the Neon Highwire stratosphere with MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY. So without further ado, here is a poem (limerick) dedicated to a kitten:
Mittens, you were cute and furry.
Mittens, with your wrath and fury.
My arm is still bleeding.
You had to stop breathing.
Mittens, you tasted great in curry.
And now that mortifying tale is out of the way, here are those bullet points, and by that I mean three words that rhyme with ORANGE:
DERRANGE
SYRINGE
Seriously though, I know you’re busy, busy like Jason Statham in that film Crank which I haven’t seen, but think has the most ridiculously wonderful concept and wish I could have been there in the original pitch meeting. “No, nothing like Speed“.
- Official Video for our recent single Bear At The Bus Stop.
- We’re playing at Powers on Nov 19th & 229 on Dec 1st.
- An interview with Live Taurus.
- An interview with Vents Magazine.
- An interview for a magazine that was rejected for being too offensive.
- Live video of us playing Neon Blink at Never Enough First Birthdays.
- We didn’t play 6Fest.
- We did play Scala.
- I met the head of the BPI and am now probably on a list.
- Luke and I made an awful video.
- I recorded cheesy vocals over a Mogwai song because I was bored.
- I promise not to read from my diary in public again.
- I disappeared for a week.
I could elaborate on all of those things, but that’s what the website is for and never let me be known as someone who says things twice. I will not gain the reputation as someone who says things twice.

229 Electro Night (Neon Highwire, Glass Diamond, ElectriXcity, DJ Engine-Earz)
229, 229 Great Portland Street, London, W1W 5PN
Maybe not wise, but heartbreakingly true,
Steve.
Cheers to those who attended our show in Kilburn last Friday. Was a great night helped by the fact that I didn’t have to drive the Neon (Street)Car, thanks to the generosity of the wonderful Raven Beats Crow meaning I was free to ensure lucidity on stage.
Many people have emailed me lately and said
“Steve, I really want to own a horse, but don’t have the space for it in my London based tower block flat. Can horses fly?”
The answer is no, horses cannot fly.
THIS FRIDAY!
Moving on, we’ve got a STONKER (meow) of a gig coming up Friday at the triple A battery Powers bar in Kilburn run by the super fantastic lake of ice cream No Fiction. It’s free entry, has AWESOME DJs, two incredible bands known for great music and live shows (HEY, ONE OF THOSE IS US! WODYAKNOW!), and loads of drink offers a n d t h e l i k e c==3
Luminescence
Buy it from Amazon, iTunes, Indiestore, Amie Street and a bunch of others like Napster and Myspace Music and Rhapsody too. Buy multiple copies then come see us live and buy some more. I’ll sign anything that moves. Make new friends, buy them the CDs. Things you can use the CD for:
Playing music.
Yeah, you thought that was gonna be one of my awesome lists, but it wasn’t. Deal.
Video
I bought a video camera, yeah, big deal. We’re gonna start filming stuff. Music videos are lame, we have much better ideas than that, what we need now are crowns. Anyway, we’ve got a Youtube channel at this place which also has a link to us playing our extended edit of Akira! at 93 Feet East.
Other Stuff
There’s a load of other new stuff in the pipeline, but figure rather than just blabbering on about it, we’ll get it all confirmed and fit for consumption first. So be patient and keep checking www.neonhighwire.com.
Few gigs coming up, but can’t reveal details on all yet till they’re confirmed. Probably playing in Brighton on March 19th though, which will be nice.
