Yep

Ive tickets for the Manchester gig, Im surprised it hasnt sold out, actually. .


I've heard his stuff on MySpace.

Is he any good live?


i hope so

.


Ive

no idea. .But he tours quite frequently and always seems to play a large venue each time he performs in Manchester, so I suspect he's at least adequate. Probably wont provide much of a visual spectacle though!


do you know

how close to sold out it is? very much need tickets for this one....


Hmm

I think you should have at least a few more days. .Have a look on Wegottickets, it will have the number of tickets available stated. .Although more could be allocated.


hooray!

have tickets now :)


i was supposed to go see him in glasgow

but stupidly booked my flight to come back the day of the gig and not after


I will hopefully go

to the Glasgow one.


I too am surprised all the gigs haven't sold out.

EASILY the best artist around. If i can get some money i'll go to Manchester, but the Leeds one looks good, too.


yup yup

brighton for me too :)


I'm going to the gig

at the Cube, anyone else?


yep!

it's going to be great <3


Me too

Just bought my ticket yay!


if anyone needs 2 tickets for the london show

i can't go because i'm ill so need to sell & reallocate them on wegottickets. it's sold out, so yeah, send me a message if you want them


on the 19th?

i might take one off you


aaargh, i'm going to be on holiday

A friend-ish is supporting him at Bush Hall, too. If I'd been told earlier by a person who * I * have mentioned favourite artist gigs too (Hot Snakes...Hidden Cameras etc), then I would have booked my flight the day after.

No names mentioned at all.


Not really.

Casiotone is awesome. I've never seen him headline. Those floating tickets need to be snapped up!


he's playing at the luminaire too

a couple of weeks later i think...


I'm going

Last time he played here (Belfast) there were more seats in the bar than attendees, it wasn't great frankly. But this town is full of savages.


New Casiotone tour EP

Sorry for the self-promotion here but I know there's a lot of CFTPA fans on DiS so I thought I'd let ya all know that we will be releasing a new Casiotone for the Painfully Alone 7" EP called 'Town Topic' to coincide with his imminent UK tour.

Town Topic is a 4 track 7" release of songs taken for the Laurel Nakadate feature-length movie 'Stay The Same Never Change'.

The initial run of just 200 will be available on solid blue 42g weight 7" vinyl at the merch table of the upcoming Casiotone UK tour (100 available) starting March 5th in London at Bush Hall, following the tour (from March 17th) the record will be available in our Webstore (www.oibrecords.com/shop.htm) while stocks last (100 available). Our webstore version will come with two limited edition badges designed by Casiotone, including a badge of our logo redesigned by Casiotone himself.

We will be starting a pre-order on the record on March 5th at www.oibrecords.com

The second run of 900 copies will be available in equal quantities of clear and black vinyl versions available for retail in Europe and the USA via Southern Records in April.

Tracklisting:
1. Ice Cream Truck
2. Town Topic (instrumental)
3. I Love Creedence (instrumental)
4. Green Cotton Sweater (version)

You can hear Ice Cream Truck streamed now on our MySpace page at www.myspace.com/oibrecords and see the trailer for the movie on the Stay The Same Never Change website.

Errrrr....I guess that's it.

Oh and Casiotone added this date:
March 19th - The Luminaire, London

x


so is anyone going to the york

date for this? Im seriously worried that I might be the only person there!!


yeah

i'm going!


Me too!


who is going to the London show?

meeeeeeeeeeeeee I am. Anyone else?


yup

its gonna be goooood


think i'll go to the london show

primarily for ApAAttTT


woot

very excited about the London show. Will their be Casiotone t-shirts?


I hope Max Tundra

gets a longish set. I'm only going to see him. Casiotone is OK but the line-up is the wrong way round talent-wise.


Max Tundra...

...is playing for about an hour I heard.


I don't suppose

you know stage times do you, OIB-Records?


I don't I'm afriad...

...Chris UTR just told me that Max Tundra was the only support and he's was going to play for an hour. Sorry I couldn't help anymore. Oh apparently they'll be tickets on the door for those without credit cards.


Max Tundra - 8:30

Casiotone - 9:50

says so on the Facebook msg they sent out today


Me too

Held By Hands aren't playing anymore.

Steve has broken his wrist. We can't do anything for at least a month.

:(


are you going to any other gig though?

there's SO MUCH i am missing. arghdsdhdhgfjdkhgdk. grrr.


i have only heard one song by him.

"Young Shields". Like it a lot though.

if I can find a ticket (poss. from birdling?) for tomorrow at Bush Hall, would everyone promise to be nice to me? The show's just down the road from me and I'm quite feeling something a bit different.


They'll be tickets on the door

just get there for 8

I can't promise I'll be nice to you.


cheers

And go on, you know you want to. Ish.


London gig was great I thought

I actually enjoyed him this time. Max Tundra was fantastic too, can't wait for the new album.


Excellent stuff

Going to see him again at the Luminaire, I think.


I'm going to the Cube

and have just realised it's next week. Bloody hell


:)


Glasgow show?

where? when?


Found it!

It wasn't listed on tickets scotland though.

And it's the same night as The Mars Volta. So i'm not going.


Everyone should come to the Leeds date.

Gossamer Albatross supporting. OMGZ!


the gig last night was good.

few issues -

max tundra.
music = good.
dancing = good.
singing = bad.

also he played for an HOUR. which i thought was too much for one support act. and the fact that CFTPA only played for an hour. surely this all could have been shifted somehow??!


come to

cardiff too! we have munch munch, the voluntary butler scheme and michael knight. all of these people are ace. i hope there's lots of stuff for me to buy..


i enjoyed last night

that is all.


The leeds show in four days time is going

to be amazing!

Unfortunately Held By Hands had to pull out, but we have the amazing Glissando to play instead!

Supports:

www.myspace.com/glissando
www.myspace.com/gossameralbatross

there are also a few (five) tickets left on wegottickets:

yay


at the London show

I went to the merch stall and Owen Ashworth was stood next to it, so I bought the tour 7" and asked him to sign it. He wrote 'IF I FIND THIS ON EBAY I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN, NEIL GRUNSHAW'

Awesome.


leeds tonight!

excited.
