YISNEWS #3

More YISNEWS, not enough time... This week's pretty hectic (as you can imagine). As well as organising the sets for two gigs and recording, it's also job application season in the Education profession... Not a good time of year... My laptop is also out of action as well... So, some of the Moog Voyager funds might have to be routed towards a new PC, especially if I don't get a job next year... But let's not think about that.

Anyway, just a big thanks to everyone who has been checking out the site, listening to the music, or thinking of coming to the gigs coming up over the next fortnight or so. The band has come a long way in a short amount of time. Please come along to Pony this Saturday, and don't be shy.

Hopefully we'll have a lot of new stuff in the next few months. The mixtape release will be out and about within the next fortnight; just some limited edition CD-Rs at the gig and digitally here... both for nada. We're thinking about doing a split 7-inch release, and hopefully some sort of longer release by Jan-Feb next year. There's a lot of work to be done, and it's pretty exciting. This is the first time in a while I've had to put in a lot of the work in a band, and it's terrfying and invigorating. Being in a band is one of the coolest things in the world; there's so much to be done, and there's a whole little world to carve out. Even if nothing much comes of it in the end, it's a very strange and cool feeling to create things that would have never existed if you weren't making them, even the smallest thing... (although some people would argue a lot of our music has already been made by other people 30 years ago... heheheh...)

So, hopefully there'll be some new, exciting stuff up here in the next few days... if not, some gig videos and pics on Saturday. Come and take some if you're not too busy!
