The Fuzzy Foursome go Mad in Chichester – SUBSET at Raise ya Hands and with Calling All Astronauts this Month

by Subset on November 8, 2011

Has it really been almost a month since we last chatted?

That’s ridiculous but just goes to show how time flies when you’re working hard and partying even harder! :P

So, I feel that an update as to what the lads have been up to these last few weeks is in order – what do you think?

That was a rhetorical question by the way – I’ve cranked up this computer so it’s going to get used!

Now then… where should I start…? (yet another one of those rhetorical things).

Well; Rob, Rom, Jay and Arran all took a trip to the south coast (granted, Arran was already there) to record some brand new SUBSET material. I realise that I am ever so biased but the rough mixes sound huge! :) RR&J would like to thank Arran for not only providing his most excellent skills as a drummist but for being the perfect host. Thanks also to Debi and Blyth for sharing their home with the terrible trio.

The fruits of their recent labour should appear early in 2012 but, as I said, the tracks do sound promising even though their temporary names are as silly as you’d expect from this lot.

The Diverse FM showcase went down a storm and the lads came away from the stage buzzing (and drinking). They knew it was going to go well when the bus driver on the way from Luton to Dunny asked for a CD! Many CD’s were handed out and the Three Amigos met and chatted with as many SUBSETTERs as they could – sorry if they didn’t get to you.

Thanks to all of you that made it to the show at Go Bowling in Dunstable – especially Daz for constantly feeding the guys with beer!

As the Chief Web Monkey mentioned last time, SUBSET are back at the Arc this coming Friday (11th November) and will then be playing some tunes at The Hideaway’s first Grunge Club Night. That’s right – SUBSET and their friends have been allowed to share their music collections in public! Come on down and check out their floor-fillers :)

It then goes a bit experimental with a host of Unplugged sessions at North 19, The Boogaloo and the Horatia but, come November 18th, they will all be back at full volume to help good friends Calling All Astronauts celebrate their debut single release at Nambucca!!!

Naturally, CAA will be headlining this special night and, as well as SUBSET adding some fuzz rock to the proceedings, Byron and Tribal Riot feature on the no-holds-barred line-up! After the live tunes have finished there then will be a club night with DJs from Teenage Kicks, Unbelievable and Beautiful People playing Alt Rock, Heavy Indie, Post-Punk, Emo, Industrial, Goth and Nu Metal favourites.

November 25th will see the lads back down on the south coast – this time at Felpham Community College in Bognor Regis helping to get the ‘Raise ya Hands’ event noticed and heard. Let’s face it, if there’s anyone that can make themselves heard it’s this bunch of mother-fuzzsters! This charity event is to raise money for deprived young people overseas – a VERY worthwhile cause.

November will be nicely rounded off the day after (that’s the 26th folks) with a special night hosted in SUBSET’s secret hideout – The Fuzz Cave!

As always – the full gig details can be found on the Gigs Page of the official SUBSET website – anything else you need to know, just hop on to the Facebook Page, the Facebook Group, squirt them an email or say hi on Twitter.

Sorted.

Wollop.
