On behalf of the Wildhearts:
"We have been informed this morning by the American Embassy, and our American
Representative who was acting on behalf of the Wildhearts Visa application in
the US, that The Wildhearts Visas will not be ready in time for the tour. The
Wildhearts are distraught at being forced to cancel these shows, but have been
given no alternative as flying with out Visas would seriously jeopardise all
future plans in the USA for the band. The Wildhearts will endeavour to make
it up to every fan who has bought a ticket, and promise to release rescheduled
US dates in 2007 as soon as possible." A spokesman added "We are absolutely
gutted about this. SXSW was to be the perfect showcase for the new line-up,
and we were incredibly excited to let the US fans see the new line-up with the
shows added around the SXSW date. We are aware that this will not help our reputation
for pulling shows in the US, but we tried everything within our power to acquire
the correct work visas for this tour and we regret to inform you that they did
not arrive in time. We cannot jeopardise our future visits in US by travelling
without the correct legal documents needed. We will reschedule the dates in
NY and honour the tickets already sold. Once again, we apologise for this cancellation.
Please keep the faith. 2007 will be a great year for the band. This is just
an unfortunate set back, albeit a severely disappointing one." The
Wildhearts

Unfortunately
B*Movie Heroes have decided to call it a day. "This isn't a decision we
take lightly - and it is one we can't believe we've had to but we find it our
option left. After 5 years of putting our hearts, souls, wallets and lifes into
a band we love, and having some life changing experiences and meeting some of
the coolest people in the country, the general indifference we recieve from
the press and the "mainstream" has made it harder and harder to keep
going and function in an industry where money dictates success. We have played
well over 300 gigs, made friends from Aberdeen to Devon and, in our opinion,
become a very good band ! Firstly we wanna thank every single one of you who
has supported us over the years - you truly are amazing. Secondly we will be
making our gig at Worcester Mars Bar 21st December our farewell gig. So it would
be amazing to see as many of you there as possible - we wanna sell the place
out and make it a night to remember. Take care and have fun. B*Movie Heroes"

about poorly routed tours! For the full diary of the events in the band's words,

It is never
a dull moment in Spit Like This land! No sooner do they finalise the deal to
get the debut studio album recorded, they lose a band member. So far, the studio
has been hit by a flood, then the guitarist left and, the icing on the cake
was the drummer ended up in prison. So are you a guitar player? Spit Like This
have gigs lined up and are about to start work on an album. You should be ideally
aged 22-30 with some experience, gear, transport, image and loocated near Gatwick
in Surrey. If you fit the bill, click here
for details on how to apply. So what happened to Stevie then? Well, simple really,
he no longer wanted to be in a band and decided to concentrate on establishing
himself as a solo six-stringer. Theres a whole bunch of shows coming up
between November and February so for more details go to URL

Five have a new single on-line that you can order here

Overloaded
have written 7 of the 10 songs for their upcoming full length CD due out early
2007. The new CD will be a departure from the first two with the new songs being
significantly less 80's. Now for the bad news. Erik fractured his wrist during
what can only be described as a drunken softball accident. This does cause delays
in the writing process and many gigs have been cancelled. Overloaded
is hoping that Erik's wrist will be better in time for the Indiana and Cincinnatti
shows scheduled for early November. Also official Overloaded t-shirts are marked
down for October. T-shirts are $15 post paid for USA and $20 for rest of world
The response
AntiProduct have been
getting to "Project Ohio: Daring and Stupid" has been exciting to
say the least. The condensed version plays like this: AntiProduct, play London
Electrowerks at the Texas Chainsaw Traveling Horror Picture Show on 27 October,
climb on board the first flight out of London on the 28th to go crush the Mainstage
with the mighty Mindless Self Indulgence at the All Freaks Halloween Ball in
Toledo, Ohio, leaving immediately after the carnage to rapturous applause and
head back to the UK, commencing the remainder of the Halloween Tour (check website
for details). This will be AP's official US debut! To raise the funds (£2000),
much like the recent sell-out MASTER EP, they are suggesting selling you some
20 unreleased AntiProduct demos on a five disc series selling for £5.00
each in LIMITED EDITIONS OF ONLY 100 PER DISC, or £20.00 for the whole
collection up front. Email Brian
