29/6/10 - The Boom Need You! New Dates and More!!

Hey there homies!

Thanks for the huge uptake in mailing list members over the last week, it seems that the offer of a free track is enough to have everyone to scramble to give us their addys. Who'd have thunk it?! Anyhoo, if you're new to our mailing list then hello! You'll be receiving rambling messages from me every few weeks detailing the goings on in the Boom camp, ponitificating on this and than and often apologising for whatever we've gone and done wrong this time.

So, in the spirit of this new nation of Boom, I've updated the colour scheme on this mailout to a sickening shade of reggae in the vein hope that it will make everyone feel slightly summery and spur you into action for the Boom summer dates, questionably dubbed the 'Too Orangey For Crows' tour. And, first things first, thank you very not and you couldn't be less welcome for the pitiful uptake in ticket purchasing right now. I don't know if it's the scorching sun that's making everyone lazy but we need more people buying tickets and making things happen! Come on people, remember the fuss we had last tour when the shows sold out?!? Well then.

We've had a couple of additions to the tour. We're gonna be popping by Ivory Blacks in Glasgow on July 20th and over to the Cooler in Bristol July 30th! So the tour looks like this... Facebook events are next to the show where applicable!

I'm not sure if anyone has been keeping up with our US Tour Diary but part 3 is up HERE and involves Laila's feet, a strange tale of US comic Gallagher and the longest drive in the world. These things take me an ungodly amount of time to put together so please keep the comments coming in or you'll break my spirit and I'll do something rash like writing a song instead. Also, keep those questions and responses for the Blog coming in at barney@sonicboomsix.co.uk. I read them all!

Finally, I just remembered somebody asking me the other day where they could get the tune 'The Dangers of Rock n Roll'. Well, my friends, the answer is that you can get all that and more on our iTunes page HERE. If you pop on there and happen to think 'ah, I like that tune', please, please legally download it! Especially if you've already got some hokey mp3s of it. At the moment, we're feeling the belated pinch of the credit crunch more than ever before in our storied history, both in camp SB6 and Rebel Alliance so every little will help us keep on doing what we do! Also, you'll be glad to know that the mailorder problems we had while we are in the US are all over. Any remaining queries are being dealt with and posted out while you read.

OK then, let's speak soon. Go and buy your tickets peeps! We'll play a great set for you if you do. We promise.

Innabit!
