sounding great Jon, I remember those first demos with the Hiwatt head and drum machine.. everything seems to have really come together since and the result so far sounds great, the music has a lovely dark feel to it

thanks Justin

here's a shocker...there is a tabloid newspaper in England called "The Sun"

they got these podcasts on their site with loads of famous bands...a couple of weeks ago, we recorded an acoustic session, and also did an interview....apparently about 3 million people will listen to this!!

so yeah, if you guys are interested in a further listen this literally was uploaded hours ago.....

minty fresh LeCain...in session.....unplugged...with a cello

I still haven't listened to it myself actually...I get freaked out when I hear myself play or talk or whatever!

Cool, are you planning any page 3 ventures in the future?

What was it like following Nerina Pallot? Good stuff!

all the sessions were done individually, by the way...I never met any of the others

our session was done in Marylebone, London.

Well, anyway, must feel cool being on the smae podcast as those people though, things are really looking good for you, you could be the next Radiohead

hehe...it is cool to be able to get the music out there.

we'll see what the future brings....all this PR thing we gotta do all the time is such an odd game.

John, please remember us when you're all big time and all that. And please don't ever get to the "Ravi Shankar, young girls in panties, throwing up, and sitting dead on the toilet" stage either...

Just kidding... I really feel you guys are going to be big and I'm proud to have known you when. I'm glad you found them and they found you, it seems like a winning combo...

thanks Doug!

it's going rather well at the moment...just woke up this morning hearing we were played on prime time radio last night....BBC Radio One!

scroll down for LeCain

I wish I'd heard it, but we had a rehearsal from 7-11, and I got back home at midnight

there will always be a little piece of you in this band in the shape of the '61
