So, what's happening then? Well the tour is underway and going rather smashingly well! We somehow managed to get our first national radio airplay on Tony Fentons show on Today FM last Friday and celebrated until the wee hours of 7.30am, rock 'n' roll, so will be in touch very soon asking you lovely lot to help us blag another play or two, although 'im not sure my liver or head could handle the celebrations afterwards!! Favourite gig so far has been at Sarsfields (Bagfull of Songs) in Drogheda and not just because we won a raffle prize of a collection of Cds (including a Metal Hammer Cd) which will keep us awake on our travels in 'The Flash' (pet name for the Renault clio) but mainly for the great crowd, great atmosphere and great music which was all organised by Tom, so a big thanks goes out to him and everyone else that joined in, including Mr Gary Stewart for jumping on the drums for an impromptu accompaniment!

On the 'Superman' side of things we are bringing the digital release date in Ireland forward a week to the 08.08.08! Oooh-er! Just because we seem to enjoy making life more difficult for ourselves on a regular basis these days and also because of it's apparent lucky and magical powers, well if it's lucky in China then that's good enough for me! So, all you Superhero wannabees out there (myself included) you'll have the chance to download the Ep a week earlier than previously planned. But even better than that, gig goers can get their supermitts on a CD at the following gigs...
