Triple J airplay rulz!

L@@K! Fan reviews!
Being a very new band with only a demo in circulation, we haven't expected to get much attention but we've been played on Triple J a few times and it's a really cool feeling! It's been a little while since I'd even looked at our Unearthed profile but my lovely girl Jess pointed out today that we've had a few reviews and that's a cool feeling too!
Have a squiz at our Unearthed page and leave us a friendly comment!

Live video from Gertrudes Brown Couch!

Playing catch up today...

We played a show at the Brown Couch in Fitzroy a few weeks ago and it was by far our best show yet. Check out a video of the song that we didn't quite have time to record for the demo.

Busking on Bourke St - A World Behind


Check it.

That time we had promo photos taken.

Thanks to our friend, the legend, Benny G (Ben Shoots People) we now have some super fancy looking shots of us jamming.
The brief I gave him was "you know the inside cover of Evil Empire by Rage Against The Machine and/or the back cover of Everything Sucks by Descendents? Take a photo like that!"
He did a great job and now we have a bunch of cool looking photos to choose from.....like this one!
Please pay special attention to the sexy look being exchanged by Chris and Jim.
Thanks Benny G!

Emails! Research! Organizing!

Today I sent some emails, one about getting t-shirts printed, another about getting a whole shitload of posters with our demo cover on it.
I did some research into Freeza shows, much easier said than done, if anyone has a complete list of freeza groups and contacts please send it to unionpacificband@gmail.com. That shit sucks.
IN: disc, stamp, cover, sleeve. OUT: Demos
I also made some more demos, we'll have a whole pile of them at the Bridge and Tunnel show @ the Gasometer on Thursday night! If you can't wait, click the link over there --> and chuck it on your ipod, listen to it in the car, on your skateboard or your bike, it's good and it'll make you feel great when you listen to it. What more can you ask for?!

Our first international support!

We got a call a few weeks ago from Andy @ Poison City about supporting Bridge and Tunnel. STOKED! The catch was that because Bridge and Tunnel were headlining the Poison City Weekender, we weren't allowed to promote the show until after the Weekender was done. We nearly blew it when I posted @BNTmusic on Twitter but it is now the Tuesday after and away we go!

This show is going to be a huge amount of fun and we can't wait!
See yas all there!
