What a mad
couple of months it has been since the last time we spoke. Crazy -
and set to only get crazier! I tend to dislike this time of year
(not in a Bah Humbug kind of way) as things tend to quieten down a bit
band-wise but, for once, it is a welcome relief. Things have been so
busy we haven't had a chance to sit down and work out what our next move
should be. Well, we now have the time (sort of) and we are
formulating The Plan. Combining The Plan with stuff we know / think
/ hope are going to happen in 2008 means that we have an exciting year
ahead!
HARD
ROCK HELL
Were you there? Did you see us? Did you see Twisted
Sister? How much fun was it?! Seriously, if you weren't there,
you should have been. If you didn't see us, you should have.
If you missed Twisted Sister, burn out your eyes and, if you had no fun,
book yourself a place in the morgue right now! Hard Rock Hell was,
simply put, Simply Awesome. We knew it was going to be good, we
didn't know it was going to be THAT good. We were also pleased to
find out that we had been promoted up to the Main Stage by the head honcho
(thanks John!) as "we wanted a really good, entertaining band to open
it" - and we were the band to oblige. I could go on forever
about it - in fact, I already did over on MY BLOG [read
it here], so if you want ALL the gossip, check it out.

ROCK HELL: THE PHOTOS

weeks until Christmas and it seems like you lovely people cannot get
enough of our gear to fill your Christmas Stockings. Which is GREAT

So Christmasy, I S**t Reindeer" is one of our many Xmas
related items. Of course, we have also added some regular non-Xmas

 THE
END
Can't believe that it is over a
year since we boosted our ranks with the arrival of Cyndi Rott. This
time last year, we were gearing up for our debut gig with him unawares of
the adventures to come. Makes me wonder what I will be thinking in a
year's time when I look back at 2008 and think "wow, who'd have
thought we'd do THAT?" - certainly we have had a lot of surprises. I
haven't mentioned the album in this Noizletter simply because, as with all
things this big, it takes time to sort deals out. We are talking
with several labels in the UK and overseas and hope to have the first few
licenses sorted out early 2008. Have we found the right UK
label? We'll see. I hope so! There is one inparticular
we are excited about, but time will tell. Sincerely
hope you enjoy this Holiday Season. Looks like we'll be travelling
up to Bolton for a massive gig on 29th so, if you are in that area, keep
an eye on our site for the announcement. We'll be having Christmas
Day and Boxing Day off but, that's it. You can't stop the rock! Stay
Sick...
