YIS News #5


All quiet on the YIS front during March, mostly just to give everyone a rest and recharge the batteries before massive April.... so massive I'm going to bold it. APRIL.
But we've been busy. Not musically of course. Bron and I are moving into a new home (which we warmed over the weekend) in a week or so.
So, yes, APRIL should be pretty mega, kicking off with the Digger launch gig at Yah Yahs on the 1st, followed by our Canberra and Sydney shows on the Saturday and Sunday. Another confirmed gig is with Baptism of Uzi for one of their The Old Bar Wednesday residency shows in April on the 21st. Also playing are fellow all-caps fans TRAJEU (previously known as Floods). We're also trying to get down to Tassie over ANZAC weekend, so, we'll see how that goes.
After that, Andre is off to Europe for a few weeks to see The Stooges and Suicide in London and play some Minpins shows. During this time I intend to write and record a 14-track concept album about the life of my pug, Buster, to be pressed only on vinyl (with a locked groove at the end, because he will live forever).
Also, on Saturday June 5th we're putting together a supergroup with Sasha (from Spitfire Parade and Constant Light) and maybe a couple of others to play a tribute night for The Fall at The Workers Club. Should be pretty cool. Also playing are Breaker Morant and a group put together by Ash from Witch Hats with dudes from Parading and Pets With Pets.
We should probably record something, right? Anyway, to recap...
