Well that was a bank holiday.
Began at Leeds Festival on Friday in the mud and an amazing night in the #JackRocks This Feeling stage. We played just before headliners Trampolene and although they played a storming set we thought Jack looked a bit off colour but it was only reading one of his enlightening tour diaries that we realised that he has more challenges up on that stage than most. So bigger round of applause for that and makes us feel even worse that ONE of us sneaked off to see... the The 1975 - Jack truly rocks!
Had a great time on Sunday at the ★ Hackney Wonderland Summer Bank Holiday Bash ★ we were a last minute addition to the line-up and headliners Little Barrie even later.
As it turns out it was a great day and thanks to organisers Hackney Wonderland for having us. Loads of real ale/beers at the London Fields Brewery, a bunch of great bands and a Caribbean Barbeque (the jerk chicken wrap was a hit amongst the non-vegans in the band) - what more do you need for a Bank Holiday?

Caught up briefly with The Wholls we were worried that they'd have burned themselves out playing Reading and Leeds festivals but turns out they were only buzzing on it and had been on BBC TV as one of they highlights the previous night. If you haven't seen them yet, do.
Also caught a bit of Bo Ningen, the Japanese four piece who seem to throw in every musical genre under the sun and then come out laughing at the other end. Taigen rules the stage and leave a packed venue mesmerised.
Sometimes your own gigs can surprise you and this one did because it felt like one of the best we had played. Why is it though that when we ask any audience "Who is Owen Smith 2016 ? No one seems to know. Anyway, we dedicate 'A Wise Man Said' to Jeremy Corbyn and two of the new songs 'Queens English' and 'Famous For Nothing' go particularly well.
All in all, exactly how a bank holiday should be. Oh, and we had such a good time that yes, we invited everyone there watching us to get in touch about FREE guest list for our single launch - rather rash according to our manager but unlike most politicians, we keep our promises so if you were there get in touch.
