  12. The last time i came to leicester, i ended up in Charles street police station. what a story that is...meeting random girls off the internet, who are actually living with someone else, then they go missing, the police go on her PC, find mails from me, and im prime suspect...yey anyway, I digress i do know it quite well. charlotte is a great venue. i think we might be able to get a gig there or at the at attik.. have you been there.?? re. the CD.. pm me your address, and i'll post you one for nowt.
  13. thank V much. you are never sure whether people are gunna like that sort of thing.. we where really happy with it when we recorded it tho..
  14. If you count Coventry as the MIdlands, then we are there on Sun 24th Oct, and Fri Nov 5th ( bonfire night ) Both at The Jailhouse, Coventry. the promoter there is pretty cool. its one of the few where you dont need to guarentee people through the door. and its a big PA system.
  15. even small bands you may have heard of may not make that. they get less then 50p per album sale. nearly always loose money on tour. most people dont know, but, if you supported a big band like Muse.. it would cost you money. you would pay thousands per night to support them.. im sure that there are plenty of bands that do make 10,000 a week tho
  16. just type the url http://www.angelfire.com/indie/ernest0/index.html thats it.. this is a link to a page because angelfire dont allow direct links.
  17. Thank you. that used to be a differant song, and we just strapped it onto the end of growser. another worthwhile point about what i was saying above... even if one person like yourself turns around and says.. like really like that, or that was great, or that acoustic bit is beautiful, it really does make it all worth while. cheers
  18. the long answer would be... most signed bands dont make that much money. as an unsigned band you wont even brake even. every gig cost us money which has to come out of our own pockets. Van hire and diesel alone can come to 100quid for one gig. and we get paid... fuck all.( per gig ). unfortunatly, thats the way it is. the only gigs we get paid for are home town ( Hull ) gigs. we hire the venue and charge on the door. we made about 300 quid 2 weeks ago on a gig at Hull adelphi. but we purposfully dont play in Hull that much because you wont get anywhere playing in front of your mates. We get out of town gigs by sending the demo you have listened to. ( wont even start on the price of that ), but that will only get you one gig at a venue. after that, they will book you if you are good. and most will expect you to take 20 - 30 people with you.. and if you dont, guess what. you pay for 20 odd tickets yourself...... very few promoters are even interested in music. its a business, and they want to make money.. our last tour cost us about 500 quid for 2 weeks. sleeping in the back of a merc sprinter ( luckely i have a VW camper also ). However.. to say that it is worth it is an understatement. been on tour is the best feeling ever. so get a credit card and get in the back of a transit van.. btw.. the short answer... what was the question again...
  19. yeah dude. 4 in total so far.. glad you like. We is real busy atm. have got Leeds, coventry ( twice in 2 weeks ), london, manchester, hull, swansea and middlesborough in the next 6 weeks. If we get signed, i fully expect you to be selling copies on ebay...lol laters ps http://www.thisisull.com/music/michelleadelphi24sept04.html We play a local gig 2 weeks ago at the Adelphi. ( dont normally play in Hull ) and this is a review from the local press.. a bit odd..
  20. ok dudes... have just uploaded another 2. can only fit 2 at a time on anglefire. http://www.angelfire.com/indie/ernest0/index.html 1, Growser 2, Preggy enjoy...
  21. dudes....  Manchester, Night and Day on Wed ( 22nd sept )..  not sure if anyone lives in this area, thought id mention it...   http://www.angelfire.com/indie/ernest0/index.html  still same songs.. will load 2 more tomorrow.. Â
  22. sooooooooooooooo.. we played Josephs well in leeds on friday night, and some guy comes up to us after the gig and asked us to play in a HMV showcase next month... yey
