    • Nah! Shame on you!

      I got my iPod plugged into my noggin' every night as I lay in bed awaiting sleep. I have pretty bad tinnitus and have to have sound in my ears in order to drown out the ringing; it's quieter that way!

      favorite (non-music) podcast: The History of Rome!!

    • Straight off the site, like a radio. I hardly use my ipod these days except in the car for long journeys

    • I'll either burn them to cd or use my ol' ipod mini. Recently though I've been just using my ipod, because I use a lot of cds doing it the other way. I would probably prefer cd's but my car unit doesn't play burned cds. Piece of shitE. If I had the option I would prefer the burned cd/ipod mini combo for listening to one of the best podcasts around this bitch.

    • I just blast them off my computer at full volume - it's a great way to stumble through the house while doing the cleaning.
      I also download them and play them on my portable mp3 player - less burnt pieces of plastic around!

    • I heard from a promoter in Denver that the whole US Tour was cancelled.

    • You've probably missed a bullet there! I saw The Pretty Things in London in 2004 (at Modstock) and it ranks amongst the worst gigs I ever attended. They were bloody awful.

    • I like to keep a guitar every where. Or at least have one around when i watch t.v. or cook, or shit or, whatever. The more you fuck around the more likely you are to come up with new sounds.

    • do any of yu gals get groupies? i find them few and far between and wonder if guys are kinda scared of us.....i've heard men claim that if you stick a chick on a bike or a guitar in her hands her sex appeal shoots through the roof, but we seem to only get the odd Star Trekker interested in us. weird.....

    • Lads,
      the best in my experiece is to contact directly the small distributors.
      We personally give them 3 or 4 copies for about 3 euro (for a 7") Sell or return.

      You should know the garage ditro...

      I.E
      Bubca records
      Screeming apple
      Dead by Mono
      Get HIp

      Bla bla bla.

      This is what I do unless you are planning a massive marketing campain. If so then i regret to have sent you this msg

    • To be honest it doen't work.
      It's ok to put some songs there because anyone can donlowad copyright free. But in my experiece you need to get in touch directly with podcaseter if you like to let them play your music.
      Podcasters can download your songs safer and easier from PSMN but they won't go and search from them.

    • It'd be great if we post here record covers we've designed, I see a lot of great records that would be awesome with a good sleeve, also it feels good when you hold the LP on your hands with your art on it. So, show me what you got

    • Just picked up a stellar 1968 Domino Californian off eBay. Man it's a hot guitar. It's a Japanese Vox Phantom wanna be.. check it out. It's in pretty good shape, although it needs a bit of TLC. the jack / pots have been swapped out, but the owner sent the originals if I wanna try to rewire it. Sweet case too.

      Anyone else have this guitar? Ever played one?
