Attic Lights Write On

February 11th, 2008

Hello,

I just wanted to say that although we’re quite busy just now with shows and the like we are still taking the time to write as many new songs as possible. We realise that we are only going to get busier and busier as time goes on so there will be less time to write the second album. It also seems crazy even thinking about the second album just now as the first one hasn’t even been released yet - but we want to make sure that it’s even better than the first. We’ve got a few little crackers on the go, and even if it’s a while before we start playing them live, they’ll be worth the wait hopefully. The ‘difficult second album’ scenario shouldn’t be too hard for us, but let’s see how the first one does eh?

All the best from me,

my second favourite joke

February 7th, 2008

hello,

just thought that I would share my second favourite joke with you - I would like to share my most favourite one but this is a family friendly site - if you want to hear it you’ll have to come find me and ask. This one’s good though - here goes:

A guy called Jim is walking down the road and he sees a little lamp, so he gives it a rub and a genie appears! The Genie thanks him for releasing him from the lamp and grants him two wishes. Jim thinks about this for a second and decides to ask for an everlasting bottle of whisky; with a flash a bottle of whisky appears before him! He takes a drink and the bottle magically fills up to the top again. Jim is amazed and thanks the Genie, who then asks Jim what he would like for his second wish. Jim thinks for a while, points at the bottle and says - “I’ll have another one of them” Ha Ha!

maybe I should just stick to paying the bass eh?
