An End Of Year Message... Pt 1?


Howdy all, It's getting near the end of the year, so... what's happening with us? Well... bit and pieces actually.

We've just finished two songs. We had a third song but we're going to re-work it. I have to admit, the two new songs are brilliant. I really like them. We're titled them "Keep Your Dreams" and the other is called "One Man". One Man is my favourite Astronot song... ever! I know I'm hyping it up, but I really enjoy it.

We're playing on the 16th Of December. It's our last gig of the year... a busy year, which saw us play pretty much every city in Scotland, at least once. Ok, we played Inverness three times, but we played every other city at least once :) After that, it'll be back to the rehearsal room to practise, practise, write, write and then practise.

We're going to be recording again in March. Yeah, it seems like ages away, but I'm sure it will fly by. The plan is to get another three songs recorded at The Byre(to add to the three we already recorded there last July) and release a mini album in Spring. I'm pretty sure it will be six tracks... six good tracks. I know what's going to be on it... I think. Maybe we'll write something better before then though, you never know.

A tour is planned for after that... a world tour... of Scotland! Ok, we don't actually know where. Anywhere is possible. If the Jyrojets can go to Moscow, and lets face it, they're pish... then why can't we?

Hopefully we'll get this album up for sale on the internet through some retailers, so even if you don't make a show... you'll be able to pick it up online. Possibly even track by track. We're good like that...

Anyway, to all you millions of people who read this, have a good Santmas when it comes and a "sensible" New Year... pah, as if that's going to happen.
