October 2010! So this is gonna be a slighlty longer post as usual ;)

Let’s rewind We, the Undersigned played 5 gigs in October! 3 were amazing, 1 was fun and 1 we don’t ever to mention it again ;)

Best one so far in WtU life was the main support slot for Youngblood Brass Band! AAA!! Thanks to to the official 84 people who according to the door came to see…but we sure there were more we were able to get more people started to wiggle that night! Thanks to our friends who wacked out/shared the bubbles during the gig was fun to see and a great thing to enjoy.

How about including that deffinitive in our set and WtU organizing a propper one? hmmm…maybe? Yeah?…Come to our gigs so we can raise money for a propper bubble machine ;-)

Here a few quotes from people:

“Great arrangement of the brass, sounded really structured and full” Fredo

“What a gig” Ste P

“Never heard you before last night, but was effing amazing!!!” Adam K

But my favourite sentence still is when Youngblood Brass Band were on stage and he said “This next song is for our friends We, the Undersigned” I think he added something else as well but due to the free beer I’ve got that night I can’t really remember but We, the Undersigned are now official friends with Youngblood Brass Band! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! :D

BOOM! Yeah let’s come to the little downside of that gig…There’s always a little bit of  adrama before a great show ;) …Soundcheck run really late…but we were able to see Youngblood Soundcheck…best thing ever!!!!!!! WOO! Those guys are amazing if you don’t know ‘em yet…you check them deffo out NOW! POW

Okay finally like 3 hours after we were asked to show up the masque was ready to allow us to set up and soundcheck for 15 minutes…Collen dislocated his shoulder…AAAAA! Put yeah he put it back where it was supposed to…all good again ;) Still with the little soundcheck we had…we had little issues on hearing ourselves and each other on stage…so we just blasted it out and…it worked POW! And yeah note for the next gig: Organize an a soundguy who knows who we like to sound ;-D

So whoever missed that gig you can watch it online!

We, the Undersigned at The Shipping Forecast opening the night for our lovely friends Picture Book! Great, Dario and Ash I love you!

And great DJ set by Ben of Santiago Street Machine in his amazing Pink Panther costume! It really made me happy to see that head bouncing around when we were on stage :D

Sadly our Tenor Sax Player Joe decided to go as a real ghost so you weren’t able either to see and hear him ;) We were on at 8.45PM so many thanks to our friends and fans who showed up that early to hear our set and see our costumes that early! You’re the best! <3

To made it more halloweenish we opened the set with the main theme of Phantom of the Operaaaaaaa muhaha going in to No Hope for Love. And the people who were there and were like what was that weird thing the devil playing a solo on. Ladies and Gentlemen that was an EWI…electric wind instrument or as I called it in soundcheck my weird electric sax thing ;P

Ghost Town Lalalalala

Pleased to see that our cover of Ghost Town by The Specials went down like hell and we’ve got everyone to move! YEAY! :D

Many thanks for Eduardo for doing our live sound and see you in the studio soon! And thanks to Picture Book to giving us the slot!

22nd October (aka NEXT Friday) Youngblood Brass Band at The Masque, Liverpool feat DNA Orchestra and mainly We, the Undersigned! YEAH! WOOOO!!!

I’m so shitting my pants for this gig!

We, the Undersigned are going to support the mighty Youngblood Brass Band!

If you are around Liverpool get in touch with anyone of the Band via facebook or email Collen: horridreview@hotmail.com or ring me up: 07503924508 or someone elses number of WTU! to get the tickets for £10. Buy ‘em now cause last time they visited Liverpool the venue sold out!

Why should I buy fuckin’ ticket for £10 of you guys? You might be thinking…Here’s the answer!

POW! First, you sure u have a ticket! But more important you also save money…when you buy your ticket online: http://www.ticketweb.co.uk/user/?region=gb_northwest&query=detail&event=406970 You have to pay submission fee and that shit! With us you won’t! BOOM!!!

And you are supporting us as well…The Masque allows us to keep £1 of each ticket we sell! And we only got 25!! So massive LOL on that! But we support Youngblood Brass Band! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

I’m as happy as a dog on a swing:
