kid carpet updates!!!well i like him and i know some of you do, so by way of a reminder to do something tomorrow here's a c+p of his mailer wot just arrived:
| Quote: | hi there people,
i’ve got loads of stuff to bang on about but I’m off in the morning to catch up with Electric 6 and go out on tour. Remember Electric 6? They did High Voltage and Gaybar a few years back and they’re meant to be lovely chaps so it should be cool.
here’s the E6 dates:
This Friday the 8th of June Newcastle Academy 2
Saturday the 9th Glasgow ABC
Sunday the 10th Sheffield Leadmill
Monday the 11th Nottingham Rescue Rooms
Tuesday the 12th London Cargo
Wednesday the 13th Portsmouth Wedgewood Rooms
Thursday the 14th Bristol Thekla Social
i’m well chuffed that it ends up in Bristol. nice n easy and obviously a party night
ok. Then there’s Glastonbury festival. I’ll be playing in the Lost Vaguness field, probably the Chapel, sometime over the weekend. The earlier the better so I can indulge in all the tomfoolery
i’m doing a Headline Tour too.
its to coincide with the vinyl 7” release of The Kids Back ep.
Except that now the release date of the ep has been put back to august sometime but fuggit, I’m going out on tour again anyway
The Kids Back tour continues:
Tuesday the 26th of June Birmingham Academy 2
Wednesday the 27th London Islington Academy 2
Thursday the 28th Chester Telfords Warehouse
Saturday the 30th Bristol Academy Official Launch Party
Monday the 2nd of July The Kids Back 7” was meant to come out
Wednesday the 4th Southampton Joiners Arms
Thursday the 5th Manchester Star & Garter
See how niftily I managed to fit it all around the wrong release date?
The Academy group offered me the three shows and I’m like – that’s fine, the brum and london ones are 200 or so capacity but bristol… that’s a 1600 capacity venue what on earth are you talking about??? They said – go for it lad. Curate a night, put a line up together that rocks and the night is yours…. So I decided to go for it. I’m a bit scared that there’ll be about 7 people there on the night and we’ll all be terribly embarrassed but I’ve got a funny feeling we might just pull it off.
Line up for the 30th of June at Bristol Academy:
Live onstage:
Me, Kid Carpet
3hostwomexicansandatinofspanners – bristol fugazi punk incredible brilliant
Bellatrix – Lady beatboxer. The most amazing beatboxer you ever heard. Amazing. And she’s just collaborated with me on a remix of Make It Look Good
Le Pants – All girl multi costume dance routine comedy nonsense with big videos. The best band in the world and on the big stage will be just brill
Dj’s from Octopussy, Cuisine, Normalise and BBC Bristol Uncovered.
The Squeaky Hill Collective will be causing mischief, running amok and doing stupid party games. Jeff, the mighty cult of Jeff. The big man. Jeff will be our compare for the evening and has agreed to wear a suit.
Tidy night of the wrongest joy if you ask me. 9-2pm. £6 in. Bingo.
Please come to my party its gonna be fun
Megastore RIP
Sad news folks. The Carpet Megastore has closed. Thursday was due to be the last, the final episode, the last day of shopping. And then I realised that I’m going on tour on Thursday so I couldn’t flippin do it anyway. Derrrrrr… so here’s what we’re gonna do, we’ll do a 2 HOUR SPECIAL and we’ll doit SOMEtIME IN THE FUTURE.
So yeah, I know everyones gutted to miss the final instalment of a crap show they never listened to anyway but there is a sadness in the hearts of all the staff and management at The Carpet Megastore. And we will return. And then go away again
Oh yeah, I’m doing the music for a feature film. It’s a comedy. I’m not telling you what its called but I’ve already done a cover of Help Yourself by tom jones for the main theme and they’ve asked me to do the rest of it. Crazy . might as well give it a go tho innit?
Look, I’ve got shitloads to do and I’ve gotta get my sisters birthday present sorted and everything and pack and its getting late so I’m outta here. Thanks for reading this if you read this
Please don’t reply to this mail, I can’t pick them up.
‘Space me you crazy kids
Take it steady

Sadly I had such a long day yesterday that I don't even remember going to bed and woke up completely knackered this morning. That - combined with a 7am start tomorrow probably puts the kybosh on any plans to go out tonight
The weekend - ya know what? Cos I've got a previous arrangement Sunday evening I've turned down (a) weekend in Ireland; and (b) free ticket to Wembley gig on Sunday. So unless I can get my arse in gear and get to Brzzle and back for Sunday afternoon (unlikely) it looks very doubtful 
Fek.
I need to get my weekends planned out I guess. In advance, not 2 or 3 days before
