Some say 'The greatest band to have ever lived'
It's a criminal shame they are not as big as ABBA
Some juicy day splits for Leeds #handfest
Saturday is already sold out!
Can we say 'sold out' on blue sky without getting spammed? I guess I'll find out

Was a little (taller than me) 12 year old at the Salisbury show last night and he was chatting away to me and asked me if I had heard of this band he had recently got into called @randomhand.co.uk.

Was super cool to see him so excited about music and ska and punk bands.

Gave him a CD. Felt right

Well, it's been a while. A lot of stuff's happened. We recorded an album, Frosty became a dad, and we went on hiatus

But not one of them indefinite hiatuses you hear so much about, nevers because we can now announce our first gig back well be at Handfest in January!

All weekend tickets sold out weeks ago. About 80 day tickets left for each day.

Zen Baseballbat really are a wonderful band.
They aren't really a ska band anymore, but absolutely love what they have become.

They were one of the first bands with a national profile that championed us back in the day, and it meant a lot!

On our drive to Scotland at the weekend, Dan pointed out Turnstile sound like if Lush made Hardcore, and he's very right!

Really can't wait to get to our home from, Newcastle! Soon to be actual home for me... Annoyingly after we play there mind.

We call this going for an 'AC Slater'
When I use the toilet I sit on it facing the wall with my legs spread, like I'm straddling a horse.

Can people help us convince @holywowstudios.bsky.social to put 'devil with a microphone' on an update of their game Trombone Champ?

Lovely of the Bar Stool Preacher gang for putting this together for us! Honour to share a piece of wax with them. Four variants, when they are gone they are gone!
