hey!,

crikey - what a damn busy month or so this has been. got soooo much news to tell you, plus a coupla thingz to get off my chest. the more observant amongst you will notice the new name of this newsletter and the new header. our street team members are known as STREET SLuTz and it stands for Spitting Like U Too. coz, basically, we're all just one big happy family / army of mutants so it seemed to make sense. right, my pc fucked up last night so I'm having to do all this on the laptop. it's damn awkward to type as they make the keyboard for lepers, so i'll shut the fuck up and get on with it. read on...

a quick word about spam... this is something we're not into. if you have received this mailing it is because either a) you joined the mailing list, dummy! b) you contacted us for a free sticker c) you're on our street team d) you've bought something from us at some point over the last few months. so, that's fair enough. each and every one of you contacted us first. however, if you want to remove yourself (in the process, of course, you will be left to burn in a smouldering pit of your own fecal matter), just click on the link at the very bottom of the page...

next gig announcement
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ok people, time to get your glad rags on, grab some people and get your collective butts down to the archway tavern, north london on the 22nd september. there will be 3 bands (including us) - not sure who's opening the show but, after them will be us (yay!) then headlining are the renegade playboys - they just supported the darkness at the astoria so it should be a good night!

full details on how to get there are on our site and we're expecting to confirm some other dates this month. so, make sure you bookmark our tour page and check back regularly. as per usual, we are whores for playing live so, if you are a venue or know one, get in touch so we can send you an updated biog or something. or just check our fucking site - jeez, how much more info do you need?? here it is - we rule, that's it, end of story. u continue booking lame bands then kick urself that u didn't book us. and, yes, that is a CHALLENGE!!!!

gig announcements

all hail the boner!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
indeed. have u seen it?? have you basked in it's merciless glory?? have u nearly been run over by it yet?! after a couple of months of pondering and designing, the boner - our daimler ds420 hearse (as loved by royals!) - is finished. it's been signwritten with the band name, our skull logo, website address. but, the icing on the cake is the legend ROCK LIKE FUCK that we've got in massive letters on the front of the car. and, boy, does that piss a lot of people off!

on top of that, we also have the license plate B16 SLT (BIG SPIT LIKE THIS) which is now registered to and on the hearse. we've been cruising around a lot in it lately and it is getting some serious attention. you can find out more about the boner on it's very own dedicated page, to be found at the link below. and whilst i'm here nattering on, our new skull logo - featuring two crossed warlocks - we need a name for it. something cool, of course. so, i'm guessing, this is a competition of sorts! the winner can have a t-shirt of their choice from either the spit like this or smell your mum range. no lame suggestions though - it needs to rock and be very cool! entries to rocklikefuck@spitlikethis.com subject 'skull name comp entry'. we'll notify the winner by email. ta guyz!

check out our shiny boner!!

t3 gallery finally open!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
the very elusive and exceedingly rude t3 now has his gallery page open. we had to do some secret covert sneaking around to get them, but they were worth all the effort. t3 is an amazing man onstage - an awesome player - but he's not one that seeks the limelight. he prefers the darkness of his cave and rarely comes out into the light. but, we caught him whilst he was visiting his two fave haunts - the local sex shop and graveyard. you can check out his pix right now!

as a result of getting these pix, it meant that i could finally put all 5 members of spit like this at the top of the site. so i did. and it looks fucking awesome! also available on our site is some desktop wallpaper so you can have us leering/peering at you for all eternity from the sanctity of your pc/laptop/mac/abacus. after you've stared in horror/wonderment at t3, go to the slt gallery and pick it up there.

spit like this at the movies!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
how cool is this? for your viewing pleasure, now online is the very first spit like this rockumentary! me (that's zion, in case you didn't know), vikki spit and stevie lee went to get our spit like this tattoos a couple of weeks back (stevie's first!) - and we filmed the whole thing! i've spent the last week editing it together and now, online as we speak, is an 8 minute movie entitled 'let's get tattooed!'. and it's pretty damn fine, even if i do say so myself. so, spielberg, u better watch out...

if you have broadband, go download the 30 meg version. if you don't have broadband, go get it. i hate the loss of quality on dial up. the picture is teeny, the sound is shit and the image is poor. but, if you still insist on using dial up, you can download a 3 meg version. sounds like a lot but it is cool. there's gonna me more movies added soon so, as a result, we now have a movie page on the site. click the link below to go there.

new spit flyers for all you STREET SLuTz
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
introduced at the end of last month are the new spit like this flyers featuring the skull dude (see above about competition to name him) and ROCK LIKE FUCK. if you want one of these a5 glossy masterpieces, get in touch. you SLuTz are doing the best fucking job in the world, and i still can't believe it. so much so, that we're gonna do t-shirts for some of you soon, our way of saying thanx! if you want to be one of our SLuTz, email street@spitlikethis.com

and that reminds me, i have a bone to pick with one of the nob-ends that requested stickers and flyers last month. some religious zealout in canada ordered stuff from us - the stuff we give out for free - then tore it up, sent it back with some fucking card about god and how chuffing great he is. well, i really hope ur reading this because that pissed me off big time. hey, idiot, we're not multi-millionaires. that shit costs us money. and, as you had nafarious purposes in mind for it, that equates to theft. and, seeing as god doesn't like that shit, you're gonna burn in hell. and, seeing as i'm headed that way, i'm gonna be right by you poking you with a big fucking stick. so there. now fuck off and try and convert someone that gives a shit..

oh dear, we have no shame!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
as you probably know, our hq had to move to south park recently. well, before we left the old hq, we had one helluva party!! luckily, vikki had the good sense to document the whole thing on digicam so, seeing as it was such a crazy night, we thought we'd share it with you lot. even if one of the pictures inparticular is not very popular with my goodself. seems vikki became a butt graffitti artist after i passed out!!

cruise the link at the bottom to view all the pictures. the night is a blur, i tell ya... see the amazing super zion carrying vile gilez around... see the sick as fuck stevie lee pre and post puke... see vikki trying to grab at zion's fly and loads more!!

p-a-r-t-y!!!

check out my column!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
been doing a lot of interviews and stuff this month. most aren't online yet but there is some stuff. keep an eye on the newspage for when they're put up, in the meantime, check out issue 1 of my first regular column on band-wars.co.uk - titled 'pushing the boundaries of decency and good taste' it's gonna be me getting shit off my chest. y'know, ranting and raving, that kind of thing!

anyway, go read it, then email site owner will and tell him how fucking great the article is and that he should dedicate his entire site to spit like this, vikki's panties and gilez's exploding cars!!

my column!

and speaking of exploding cars...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
vile gilez. two words that should bring sheer terror to anything with four wheels. top tip - if you are a motor car and you happen to see our drummer headed your way, just leap of a cliff. it will be a quicker and more dignified end than what he has in store for you.

since he's been a member of the mighty spit like this, he has had no fewer than 5 motors. that's 6 months people!! mainly, they've just been driven til they can't be driven no more but, his last car... what can i say?? apart from IT FUCKING EXPLODED! silly buggar was in brighton when it blew up! fortunately, he's ok so we still have a drummer (phew) but, if you're on the road and see a car driven by a seemingly manic epileptic - GET OFF THE ROAD!!!!!!!!!!!
stevie lee on msn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
first it was me n vikki, then vile gilez and now stevie lee! yep, another spitter to add to your address book. go gentle on him - he's had a busy month! so add spitlikestevie@hotmail.com to chat to him. for vile gilez you want to add vilegilez@hotmail.com and for me n vikki, add spitlikethis@hotmail.com

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
yes, i know it's been said before, but we have been dogged by unreliable printers who have fucked us around endlessly. so we are taking control. we've gone out and bought our own machine which will be arriving next week. and, once we can figure out how the fuck to work it, will be getting the new designs sorted. so do keep an eye on smell your mum for further announcements!
