Hi all,

we're playing on Saturday the 13th of June down at Refuel with Freddy Fudd Pucker before he heads off to the Americas to discover new things, such as penis. LOL. 

anyways. come down. entry is a prezzie from you in money form. kinda like that radiohead in rainbows shit. Old Psychiatrist's Club are playing too. They've got rather tight lately. They even came second in the OUSA battle of the bands. They should have come first, Ashes Of Eden are shite.

MS=essholes

so not only have mean street changed their name to street chant (sorry guys, but i think it's a bit shit) but they've also decided australia is way cooler than dunedin and have buggered off there to play some shows instead of coming down to play chicks. oh well. no beef. billie said they might try to come down later in the year. i'm not counting my chickens.

BUT 

FEAR NOT!!

bad sav will be playing a show with brains and onanon instead. woohoo! it's out at chicks hotel on the 9th of april. that's the night before good friday. which means you can come out and get shitfacewasted and not have to worry about going to work tomorrow. by which i mean the next day. i still have to go to work tomorrow. fuck. 
anyway. the gig costs $5 and will start at nine. i'll post up a poster here when it's done.

ALSO

we recorded an EP in the weekend. i did the vocals last night. it should be ready and in cases and stuff by next week or something. if you'd like a copy, email badsuave@gmail.com and tell us you want a copy. 

AND FINALLY

we're on twitter. fad, i know, but whatever. follow us at http://twitter.com/badsuave

bad sav are like totally NORML.

greetins.

we've got a gig planned for in a couple of weeks. it's at THE COOK.

YEAH<><><><>MOTHERFUCKERS<><><><><>THE MOHERFUCKIN CAPTAIN COOOOOOK<><><><><><>

have you seen their new paint job? it's neato.

the other night when i was going home from pint night i thought it'd be a fantastic idea to swing from a tree. so i did. and now there's a small bit of tree in my finger, the ring finger on the left. pain in the ass playing guitar with two fingers. oh well. it'll be all better soon. luci and i are going to have a lock in this evening, light the fire, bust out spiderman and write sum dope az shit. yuyeh.

fuck it's quite raining in the nation right now. my feet are completely soaked. actually, my person is completely soaked. ugh.

so yeah back to this gig business. NORML show is with The Weedkillers, Booof and Manick and is on the 5th of March. AT THE COOK. i dunno how much it will cost but i heard something about drink specials and NORML membership cards to be used at THE COOK.

we will play some songs with delay and you guys will be all like ooh fuck man that shit is like blowing my tiny tiny mind! then we'll close with 'smoke de ganja' and you'll all get your lighters out and sing along and have a tear developing in the corner of your eye.

uhhh what else. mean street are now (hopefully) going to be down on the 11th of april to play at chicks hotel. and christchurch the night before that. can't bloody wait.

bad sav and brains will be bringing you epic boozy funtimes at refuel pint night on the 6th of may. ruin your brain cells your credibility your dignity your liver your knees you can even lose your cellphone if you want.

i'm trying to dry my socks in front of the little heater in the r1 studio but it smells like burning and i think the best option may be to turn it off. sigh. soggy feet suck hard.

piss off button,
Hopo.
