Heat Wave
We’ve been recording a bunch of demos for the album for the last few weeks, and unfortunately for us, there isn’t much in the way of air conditioning in our studio. It’s even worse inside the “control room” (a picture would illustrate why those quotation marks are necessary) as there isn’t even a window or vent. When the door is closed the only way for air to get into the room is through the crack beneath the door, which is normally clogged up with a tangle of wires. Remember when there was a rumor going around about how the yellow Teletubby had died inside the suit, from lack of oxygen or something? I think that might happen to one of us.
We have done about 5 songs so far, and we have plenty more to get through. Still a few months before we head into the studio, so we’re trying to get through as much as possible and put together a really good tracklist. You should let us know which tracks you’d really like to hear on the album – you can post a comment here – just let us know which song is your favourite. DO IT!

Sorry to spoil your fun, but It was Poe (Red one) who died – the little Asian woman suffocated.

Really? I’m pretty sure that never happened – I even checked IMDB and the red one is most definitely still alive. I don’t know how these things start, but rumors spread so much faster when people WANT them to be true. Just ask Richard Gere’s gerbil. (Let me guess, it wasn’t a gerbil, it was a hamster?)
Heat Wave Update!!! We have a tiny desk fan in the room – It really makes a lot of difference, despite the lack of ventilation. Good times!
