I know I
know, we haven't sent one of these out since March! Big apologies
for that but, with the enormous amounts of shows we've been playing plus
sorting out some business, we just haven't had the time... BUT, we
have sorted out a couple of amazing new things and, from now on, things
will just keep getting bigger and better!
NEW
MANAGER AND AGENT
We are delighted to
announce two huge major developments in the SPiT LiKE THiS
Universe. To say we are excited about this is an understatement as
it represents a HUGE leap forward for us and will result in dramatic
advancements for SPiT LiKE THiS over the next few months!
We have taken on a Manager
- GARY RAYMOND from RTB MANAGEMENT. Gary is also the
manager of KOOPA,
the Punk trio who, last year, took the industry by storm by being the
first ever unsigned band to enter the UK Top 40. We are looking
forward to seeing what we can achieve together with Gary!
Secondly, we now have an
Agent, RiCHARD SMiTH at NICE IDEA PRODUCTiONS LTD. All
future bookings will be made via Richard and, more importantly for us, you
should see us on some impressive bills supporting major bands in countries
around the world!
RiGHT
SAiD FRED
Life doesn't get much stranger
than this! Last week we had an email from a nice lady called Dawn -
the PA to RiGHT SAiD FRED. They had seen our "I'm
So Sexy I S**t
Right Said Fred"
T-shirts (available for just £12.99 from our SMELLYOURMUM.COM
merch site!!) and wanted some of their very own. Well, last
week
me (ZiON) and ViKKi were ViP'd at one of their shows in London and here we
are, with Fred & Richard resplendent in their new tops.. Click on

AN EXCLUSiVE
Download an exclusive from our
album-to-be! THE
BEERMAN, DJ for PARADiZE
RADiO debuted us on his show on 25th May. You can listen to
the whole
show here or just the
SPiT LiKE THiS bit here. He played "Coming After
You", "Sleaze Sells...But Who's Buying?" and "Trick
Or Mistreat". He also said some very nice things about us.
From his blog: "As I mentioned the quality of the debut artists
this week was utterly amazing with the first debut artist SPiT LiKE THiS
proving hugely popular with the listeners, they are an amazing band with a
unique sound that does not fail to impress, they are already hugely
acclaimed on the rock scene and helllllllll an excellent addition to The
Beermans playlist judging by the listeners reaction you will be hearing
alot more from them on my show in the coming months. It is in
writing this blog I received a message from Spit Like This and
hellllllllllll yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh though they missed the show they gain
the accolade of outstanding reason for missing The Beerman Show to quote
'we had to pop out and meet Right Said Fred (long story)...' More about
that on next weeks show!!!!!!!!!!!"

RIP
OUR BELOVED HEARSE It is a sad
day in the history of SPiT LiKE THiS - our beloved hearse, The
Boner, was sold yesterday on eBay. It needs a load of work
done on it and, due to our commitments, if we keep it, it will just sit
around continuing to rot. It deserves a better life than that, so it
is time for it to have a new home. The end of an era and we are
pretty gutted! If you see it about, say hello from us!

BLOGS
My latest Blogs are
online now. Please note, I do not refrain or censor so there is some
quite extreme adult content not suitable for anyone under the age of 18 or
someone who is easily offended! To give you a clue, it is a
blow-by-blow account of a recent gig we did for the London Fetish Fair..

THE
END
Last issue of the Noizletter, I
promised you some BiG news. As with everything in the music biz,
things take ten times longer than you think they will, but at least we
have gotten to announce 2 out of the 3 massive things that were in the
pipeline!
Us
having a manager is a huge step forward. As you know, we have been
effectively managing ourselves for years now and, to get as far as we have
gotten is pretty impressive - and we have YOU to thank for it! But
now, with someone that has a clue how this business works, we can look
forward to many new adventures, the first of which will be the release of
our debut album, an album we started recording almost 1 year ago to the
day! It has been a long time coming, there are things in the
pipeline and we expect to be able to make our final BiG announcement very
soon indeed.
I
hope you are as pleased as we are!
See
You At The Front...

If you are receiving this, is it because you have
contacted either SPiT LiKE THiS or SMELL YOUR MUM. If
you don't want to receive it, there is some kind of link at the bottom to
remove yourself. It is that simple. Of course, to remove
yourself would be foolish but, if you are not our kinda people, we don't
want you anyway.
