The boys spent the night at la 'rocka studio' mixing down the demo
that they have been bashing together for the last couple of months. All four tracks are now finished to a satisfactory standard and will be available as mp3s from this site very shortly. We are now in the hands of the clever bastard that looks after this site, so keep checking in to see how soon he can be arsed to sort this out!!

BASTARD!!! Adidas chose 'sound of the suburbs' by the members to accompany
their footage
02/08/2001
Today the demo along with the other existing songs originally suggested were sent to Adidas themselves for the final decision
01/08/2001
News that the ad agency had asked for a DAT tape of the recording raised hopes
that this could actually make it to the finished product and destroyed uncle Iffys concentration for rehearsals during the evening.
Still a rough copy was played to the band on the hope that if the song was
successful Dave would allow the band to perform it as part of their live set.
31/07/2001
At about 11am Iffy received the call regarding yesterdays events.
the good
news was that the agency liked it but the bad news was that they wanted it to be "madder" and a return to the studio immediately was required.
As Uncle Iffy spends most of his days in the office
at T.O.T stroking the cat and counting the money, it wasn't too inconvenient to drop every thing and run along to the possibility of grabbing his fifteen minutes of fame.
more shouting and disjointed mixing
ensued and If left the studio satisfied with his own contribution
30/07/2001
Today out of the blue 'Uncle Iffy' got a call from a company called 'big noise', that compose incidental music for T.V adverts.
Dave a partner
at big noise explained that the advertising agency that looks after Adidas had called him on
Friday 27/7 and asked if could write an original score to go with the forthcoming tv advert in the I kiss football' campaign because they weren't happy with the existing tunes they were using.
This he did
and the initial response was that the agency loved the music but said they would like to hear it done with a more "lad culture" sound to the vocal!
having contacted Rob 'Harry' Dean, a Radio One
producer and personal friend of Lil BH, it came to pass that yer ol' Uncle Iffy was in the frame!
unconcerned that this might be a hoax, Iffy and Lil hot footed it down to a small recording studio in Baker
St where Iffy duly shouted over the backing track!
Dave seemed to like it so it was attached to the video and sent to the adgency.

The froggy with the electric piano is settling nicely now and has decided that
he would like to be named after his favourite les dennis player, goran. As his real first name is Ivan, we have decided that he is to be called "ivan itch" and in future will be addressed as itchy ! No doubt the boys in the band will evolve this further and add a suitable second name, time will tell.
Recording on sunday 22/7/01 was a blast with 4 songs, 'wet dream',
'should i stay', lets stick' and "step on" all being completed as basic tracks. We are booked to return to "la rocka" on sunday 12/8/01 to put together the finishing touches.
As soon as this is done mp3’s will be made available on this site.
Flyers are now available for the 100club gig on friday 17/8/01 and anybody needing these can e-mail iffy on peter@ t-o-t-shirts.co.uk ,if you are unlikely to bump into him beforehand.
The kings head at crouch end has been booked for friday november 16th, and as soon as the "demo" is ready it will be sent to the four corners of the globe in search of more gigs.

Yesterday afternoon at 4.37 pm Telstar was released without charges and his name was put back on the rota.
17/06/2001
This morning at 5.30 am the police discovered Telstar slumped over the wheel of his Skoda in the middle of Durants park duck pond. early fears of a
"Keith moon" copycat suicide were quickly dismissed as it was realised that he had only passed out from the excesses of last nights storming performance at the Undersolo, and had lost his way home. After
testing positive on the Breath test and being duly arrested, Tel was quoted in the national press as saying "Blimey that's good, I'll be off the van driving rota then!"

A citizen of france whose name is to difficult to pronouce let
alone spell, has joined the band and will be thrown in the deep end tonight by appearing with us for the enfield show.
Assuming all goes well we hope he will become a permanent seventh and an appropriate
pseudonym will be assigned.
11/06/2001
We are still actively looking to replace ‘sticky’, and will be holding auditions this Thursday evening 14/06/2001. Any interested parties please ring
peter on 0208 887 7901 or Regt on 07956461823 for further information.

Due to personal circumstances and musical differences michael stone a.k.a "stickey moan" has decided to part company with the
band!
The remaining members of the band wish him all the best in whatever direction he decides to go in and expect to see him from time to time on a "henry" basis.
this now means that there is a vacancy for a keyboard player
within the group and any interested parties are to contact us by either telephoning Peter on 0208 887 7901/0958 312938 or Reg on 0956 461823.
The band will continue to rehearse/gig as a Six piece until
this position has been resolved.
