Story peoples? This iz my furst post on da nu website! ha ha LOL xa… I’ll stop now. Been pretty lazy in terms of communication and that with the rest of the world lately. Plenty has been going on, as you’ll see below.
First off, we had a pair of gigs in London a couple of weekends ago. The first night was in west London, on Shepherd’s Bush green to be precise. Or rather in the toilets:
We are playing the Podge and Rodge Show next Tuesday! I wonder what tune we’ll get to play??? Tune in at 22:50 on the 8th of April to find out.
The Boners will be wrecking the gaff in Whelans on April 12th as part of Bud Rising. Ten euro blips in, tickets available from tickets.ie. If you were at the gig there recently, we’d very much like to see you again, so come down and go nuts!
Also, we are playing our first gigs out of Ireland next week! Wowzas! We’re in London on Friday 4th/5th April for gigs in Ginglik, Shepherd’s Bush and Hope & Anchor in Islington. On May 17th we hit warmer climes for a gig in Razzmattazz in Barcelona. We can’t wait to get this Bonus Party Juggernaut further into Europe!
Pheeeeew! An eventful couple of weeks in boner land then. This is a long one, you have been warned.
January saw a couple of hurried and flustered weeks waiting for vinyls, cds and life-size cut-outs of Tom Selleck to arrive and doing rehearsal sessions for what was to be our first proper tour.More…
This opened with an appearance at the Melting Pot night in Cypress Avenue, Cork. Despite the monitors blasting the living shit out of our ears and the carpetburn-induced bloodied knees, we had a ruddy good time, and thanks to Captain Moonlight (savage banter), Ol Dirty Chancer, Andy & Jimmy for the tunes, Sian, Barry and all the other mad punters that gave it a lash, and last but not least, Mark for putting the whole thing on - Big ups! A downside, on what was a funny old night, was the most cretinous caveman of a bouncer ever to drag his knuckles on the earth not letting Sarah (Gav’s 21 year-old missus) into the venue for the gig for lack of ID, despite the fact she drove loads of our equipment down to a city where she knows no-one. Not tonight my hole. Continue reading ‘Tour Diary - Blah Blah Blah’
We’re all pretty excited in the bonus camp. We’re about to embark on our first proper tour to promote the Everything Flows EP. Everything Flows is a single taken from our debut album, which features vocals from Paul O’Reilly of Channel One. The EP will be a limited edition blue vinyl release and will feature remixes from Jape, Cadence Weapon and Nouveau Noise. And believe me, the remixes are HAWT. We’ll be selling the vinyls, our album and some sexy t-shirts at all the shows.
We’ll be doing dates all around Ireland and some in the UK and Europe. We can’t fucking wait. Keep your eye on our gigs page for more dates.
We can’t wait to freak out with you all at the shows.
Only €12 . Numbers are limited
Our debut album has been getting great reviews all over the shop, including Foggy Notions, The Star, Irish Times, Irish Independent, Sunday Tribune, Metro. Some have called it contender for Irish album of the year! And all we had to do was take a few journalists hostage and shit. Take a gander at the press page for the quotes and shizzle.
