Liz and I are writing to you from Bristol, which links me to the next issue.
That's right, we did follow Coco Sumner to Bristol, but what do you expect? ONLY GOOD THINGS HAPPEN IN THEKLA. We managed to give her our EP whilst she was on stage! You guys, I can't even. She is impossibly beautiful irl and we're totally, utterly obsessed (again).
Tuesday, 6pm, Urban Outfitters in Leeds. FREE I BLAME COCO IN STORE SESSION! And then 7pm at the uni, ACTUAL GIG. See you there?
ION, WE GOT THROUGH TO THE NEXT ROUND OF THE JUST A GIRL COMPETITION! Please, please come and support us at the battle of the bands which takes place on Saturday the 23rd of October at 7.30pm at The Horatia near Highbury & Islington tube station in London.

Not only will this be our first gig in London, but also our first gig with Sue on bass and Heather on drums! SO EXCITED. Our very first EP (Honk!) (no, it's actually called 'Honk!') will be on sale too! DO pick up a copy. We've all been working very hard on it over the past few weeks (mad props to Danni for being an all-round DEITY when it comes to music tech). The tracks for the EP are still being perfected, but head on over to myspace to listen almost-perfect versions for now!
I will leave you with some remnants of our conversations from last night. During the gig I may have said 'she looks like something out of Tipping the Velvet!' to Liz. And she did - she was wearing a ruffled white shirt with a red bowtie and brown trousers that only reached her little ankles, completed with white socks and brown brogues. She then picked up her drink and nodded to the audience, 'cheers'. Later, as we were trying to fall asleep still reeling from her nauseating beauty, Liz went 'She was like an URCHIN.'
Urchin.
So then, as we were still desperately attempting to fall asleep, we just kept repeating the word 'urchin' in turn. Urchin. Is there? Can I? Does a weirder word even exist?!
Urchin.
I mean obviously we are aware that when you say the same word repeatedly it gets weirder and weirder and loses all meaning, but urchin is just weird to begin with! URCHIN.
I think that's enough for now. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
