RE: Transmitter demo review

Tom,

 

Thanks very much - great job - astute. We all enjoyed the review. Mr. Fox is seriously thinking about either renaming the song or writing a new one about 'Ketchup Music' .... those funny little ketchup squirters in the shape of tomatoes come to mind that you get in greasy spoon cafes. Fake blood. Some terrible misunderstanding leading to tragedy. Yeah, I think we could go somewhere with it!

 

Socialcommontating were very pleased you liked the artwork as well.

 

As I said, we're looking for a venue to do a Xmas gig. Mr Fox is looking into a venue in Walthamstow. We've left it late to get a slot in the more usual dives I suspect. You and the other people at rockfeedback must have been to a few gigs in your time - any suggestions for slightly lopsided venues with strange wallpaper and damp electrics that might accommodate the likes of us?

 

all the best

Mr Snow

Those lovely chaps at Rockfeedback.com have unearthed the 'Revenge of Music' EP and have decided to feature it on their demos review page ... and they've written very astute things about it too. 'Sea shanties', 'malicious bark', 'Their songs sound like they could be the work of a gang of those modern-day pirates'.

Music to our ears ... and music to their ears too obviously. And to yours.

We are all ears. As the saying goes.

Harry Stoneman secret gig shock ['securiQ.Watchdog': checked]

Harry Stoneman, the subject of a song by those Transmitter boys, has been
using his new found fame to play a few hush-hush gigs to the chat show
music enthusiasts in swinging London and selected home county towns located
not far from his beloved M3 motorway route oft travelled in his sports car.
Reports suggest he has lost none of his trademark charm and thrilled die
hard supporters with many songs from his back catalogue, including his best
selling album "MUSIC FROM NIMBLE AND OTHER ADVERTS", and in an audacious
nod to Transmitter played a version of their classic "HARRY STONEMAN",
which may well prompt Jack Slipper out of retirement to reopen the
NOTORIOUS Beachy head girl in a Herald murder enquiry, a real COLD CASE if
you will....

What are we like?

Well ... I overheard someone say -

"It's like Ray Davies, Tom Waits and Lonnie Donegan all turning up to
heckle a shop steward meeting in a custard pie factory. It's odd ...
and it's messy ... very messy ... but it's bloody marvellous!"

Test Transmissions

Test transmissions have been carried out at an undisclosed sound
laboratory in South London. The operatives involved, Mr. Buxton, Mr.
Fox and Mr. Snow were all surprisingly pleased with the results.

It is more imperative than ever that members of the general public
ensure that their shelters are ready and prepared.

Mr. Snow

We are about to transmit

OK, this is not a test. I repeat, this is not a test. Transmission may start unexpectedly at any time in the near future so for the safety of yourself and your loved ones, we recommend that you go inside; shut all doors and windows; lean an old door against the strongest internal wall you can find; cover it with sandbags; stock up on tinned food and dried fruit; climb inside with the rest of your family and wait until the danger is over.
