So Iron On have been asked by the kind staff at Ric's to DJ again this Sunday arvo (28/8) from 3-6pm.
What were they thinking? Weren't they there last time? Yes
I know these questions and many more are probably going through your
head right now. But, fear not friends, this sunday we will be
bringing the radness! That wasn't meant to sound like a SPOD
reference...but kinda did. Anyway, so we are going to be totally
more rad than Tommo and the rational academy who are DJ-ing on Sat
arvo...because we have Ratcat records (ok maybe just one). No,
but seriously if you are bored on Sat arvo, go and see Tommo and the
rationals DJ at Ric's. If you're bored on Sun arvo come and see
the socially awkward kids of Iron On drink too many beers and dance
behind the console. You may also be fed for free...there was some
seriously free food last time we did this. No promises though...
In other news, our record came back from the pressing plant the other
day. It was cool to see it all put together as a finished product
(btw I mean 'product' as in product of our hard work...not product as
in a 'unit'...I hate when bands talk about their music as being
'products'. Like "well we haven't got any new product"...dude,
it's music!...it's ART...ha ah...ok I'm kidding now.) Anyway, our
record will be out Sept 5th.
The new death cab record is...puzzling. I'd like to make a
prediciton now, so that everyone can know for real how much of a
'mystic cherryl' I really am...not that this is even a big call,
but...Transatlanticism will be the best record death cab ever put
out. It will not be bettered. The new record has shed the
rock, which is fine by me, but seems to have shed something else
too...can't work out what it is yet. Maybe it's the fact that
Gibbard seems happy...well, as "happy" as he could be. And not
that there's anything wrong with that...although there is definately
less urgency about the whole thing. Anyway, I'm sounding like I'm
not liking it...it's still pretty new, but already it has moments that
make me want to pull my eye balls out (in a good way). Ok, now I
am rambling...Although strangely I did think one song sounded like John
Denver (RIP).
