Yes, what should we say. A wonderful tour is behind us! 18 Dates has been executed with our roadpals, "Fifys" also called the "5Bugs". We would like to thank everyone who has come to our shows. Thanks also go to the band iO to us on 6 of the shows have supported.

The highlights of this tour were the gigs in Eschwege, Berlin and the tour's closing in Oelde (much toilet paper, burning stages, powerless guitarist, false setlists, disgruntled guitars, band members interchanged ...

Thanks to the people who are already bought the album at amazon.de, Itunes, musicload .... aber selber zu verticken macht mehr Spass;-) but selling directly makes more fun ;-)

.. we got new shirts at the bitune webshop and the singles "Fantastica" and "Stay" with extra tracks. .... Thanks again in this way ....

Among other things, we have been guests at KenFM in Potzdam. You can see afterwards on the sly-fi.com. Even a small video can be found on metal-hammer.de, the guys from Metal Hammer visited us during the tour in Munich. On Monday, with a contribution to YOUFM to hear.

Now again we have a few days time to make songs. Before Christmas we are back again at the "Winter special Taubertal" -21.12.07 with "Donots" and the "5Bugs" and as useually each year in Eschwege "Rock in Winter"-22.12.07 concert. This time, however, quieter, we play our acoustic set.

To tour completed, there is still videos and photos:

15.12.2006

We’ve spent a long time looking for a Label, but all the Labels we spoke to wanted to change us in some way. Our new management found Headroom Records, who are also from the UK, very quickly. Several releases are already in the pipeline. Our first ep will be available to download in April, and the album will follow later in the year. We’ll keep you updated…

We’re still working with our bookers from KOKS, who also helped us find the Label and Management.
 

10.12.2006

After a long time we have finally found management who want to support us. It’s R&J Hamilton Management from the UK, and we really look forward to working with them.
