Touring sucks with these gas prices...




Something that affects a lot of us, CNN acknowledged it themselves. Trying to tour on a couple hundred bucks a night is not something that can exist at the moment.
This will no doubt affect the way bands operate... one good thing that might come from it, is that local and regional scenes might get stronger like '80's and 90's. People will also stay closer to home to see bands...

Best thing I think I've seen in years.

NME likes us, they really like us (Jaguar Love)


Well the UK press seems to really be responding to Jaguar Love - NME picks JL as one of the best 5 new bands to see at T in the Park, Gigwise gushed on the new album, Guardian, Metro and Drowned in Sound all seem firmly aboard. Now lets see if the US press can follow their lead.
