Oh yeah.

The album's out now in the UK, US, Japan, Holland, Belgium, Norway and probably a couple more European countries. Apologies to those countries who had the release date rudely moved at very short notice. Basically, the extremely extravagant packaging sent the manufacturing plant into meltdown, and they only completed a small amount of the total order in time. Anyway, it'll be released everywhere by this Monday, February 13th.

Also, as a special treat to Londoners (because they suffer you know. No-one ever comes to their town), we've added a third band to the bill for tomorrow night's show. They are Go-Kart Mozart, who are the current "vehicle" for Lawrence of Felt/ Denim notoriety. Obviously he was a huge influence on Stuart, so if you want to find out why, get down early. They'll be on at about 7.20pm, and not playing for that long. Brakes will follow.

The rumours of European dates are out there, and quite a lot of them (although not all) are true. As soon as the whole tour is locked into place we shall let you know. It won't be long though. We've almost finalised plans for a Japan/ Australia (and maybe, just maybe NZ, but it's always fallen through in the past) tour too.

It's going to be a busy time, and there are going to be a couple of amazing shows I can't tell you about quite yet.

But really, this was just to remind you that the album's out. You might want to check it out.
