Don’t worry, 65kids. They don’t talk about it so much, but there are clever people looking after us & their Pipeline Crusades are being waged all across the Eastern tundra whilst we sleep, safe in our electric dreams. They are tirelessly securing our future, oil-based energies, to delay the day when power cuts like the one that killed our London show become common place.
Blackouts! Thanks, everyone who was there, for not spinning-out. Sorry that we couldn’t finish our set. We’ll be back before you know it. In fact, there’s already a 65 DJ set happening in London May 23rd at Macbeths. If you’re into the pre-show cut-up 65 styles, you should come with your best dancing shoes on.
So apart from the reminder in London that darkness lurks, testing the edges of the careless, head-in-the-sand stylings of our 21st century breakdown, the UK leg of the Test Tour passed spectacularly. Thanks to all those who came to see us. It meant a lot. Thanks to Amusement Parks on Fire for putting diesel in their van & riding stick with us. Thanks for…Thanks for dancing.
Right now we’re in the studio. In a couple of days we’re off to Europe to apologise for our inability to speak more than one language & also play some shows. Amsterdam is now sold out. How did that happen!? Answer: People bought them tickets, yeah?!
In other news: we can announce slots at some more festivals:
Cactus in Bruges, Belgium.
Square Festival in Borth, Wales
Bruis Festival, Maastrict, Netherlands.
There are still more to come. Investigate the shows page to get the specifics on everything posted so far.
That’s it. We’ve done the drums and guitars. Now it is time to steal all the fx pedals so we can put synths through them instead. There might be a real sense of urgency & excitement in the studio this time round. Or that might just be the fear… More soon. 65.x
