Few bits of news from the Rhysical Pheck camp
First, thanks to all who attended the gig we did with Daevid Allen and His University Of Errors, it was a wonderful night, they were top blokes, Daevid was every bit as eccentric as we’d expect and the rest of the band were spot on, they’ve promised to come back to play and on holiday so they must have enjoyed themselves !, a huge shout out to Tony for organising the gig, Dave / Anglin for doing the sound and Phil Kneen for video’ing the whole thing and everybody else who helped along the way – you can watch a video (or a vido for any Absolutley fans out there) of our set from the link below;
Rhysical Pheck Live at Peel Centenary Centre 23rd May 2008 Video We’re not the most exciting band to watch, no dancing, fire breathing or explosions but its ‘nice to chill out to’ as Tony Wilson would say 🙂
We enjoyed that gig so much, we’ve planned a couple more with our buddies The Trash 5, our music is quiet, they are not ;-), should be good nights, both gigs are free to get in and their will be musical DJ interludes from DJ Fionn, please come along and support these as both venues are hoping to do more nights like these but only if they get good attendance, both pubs do great beers !!!

All the tracks on the video and at the gigs are new tracks from our forthcoming release ‘The Vitamin D LP’, it was finished and ready for release, but we’ve enjoyed enrolling the help of Jo, Jenni, Pippa, Ben and Simon so much we’re considering re-recording the whole thing so it’ll probably be another five years before we get it released now, “Traa Dy Liooar” as we say round here 🙂
The new Ballagroove compilation “BGK003” is also ready to roll and should be released in the next month (hopefully !), we’re hoping to put together a showcase gig and get as many of the 28 bands that appear on the double CD to play as possible, we’re just trying to find a decent venue that is up for such a thing, will post any updates here soon.
Have fun, only 9 days till the nights start drawing in so get out there and enjoy the sun !
