Well, the last time I updated was August! Whoops! Today I was out buying a new cymbal at the lovely Drum Shack, and thought I'd better put some news in here.
In the autumn I played 2 gigs with the New Royal Family - the first was at AntLib - an Adam and the Ants convention, and so I had to learn 6 of his songs or so. The gig was amazing, lots of energy, and then the power went out. Luckily, the guitar amp still worked, and the audience knew all the words, so we played a sing-along of "Young Parisians" which was probably my favourite gig-gone-wrong moment ever. We played a gig the next weekend - one of the other acts was Lloyd Grossman's reformed punk band! They were interesting. For our set, we threw in a few Ants numbers, since that's what we most recently rehearsed! And the power didn't go out... A video was done of us and I've put a link on the Video's page on this site.
Then, this past weekend, Scarlet's Well played a great gig in Stockholm, put on by the super-organised Louise Bodin. Probably the most beautiful venue I've played, it was a tiny children's theatre with gold ceilings and an amazing backstage. The audience was lovely, and the other band great, and generally a very lovely weekend.
The last gig of the year (I think) is going to be Small Crew at the Bull and Gate. We're Headlining!!! Well, playing last. Still, it should be fun, and I'll definitely enjoy it.

Well, it's time again to record a new album. We've got about 12 songs, they're all really good, and I think this album is going to be the best one yet. We'll be recording in January, with the album coming out later in the Spring. Yeah!
