How exciting! I know I run their website and that, but the gig's sold out and a one-off so it's not a Jag. I just think it's a bit of a result for them...

No one 'll watch 'em

Clearlake are the most boring band I have ever seen.


Wow!

Good work in digging that out from so many pages down! Give yourself a pat on the back.


ut i'm glad that he did

otherwise i wouldn't have seen the thread and thereby become even more excited about going. all excellent : )


Did you have ear defenders on?

One of my absolute favourite all time bands by a far, far distance.


Good on 'em

Nice bit of exposure for what is a criminally underrated band, I'm just wondering what the hell is going on with the new album. Amber came out in Jan 06!


News on new material

will be on their website this weekend. New album's written, but you'll be able to get something else quite a bit sooner. He said cryptically.


Yeah !

As an authority on them, were you at the show when they suppoted Malkmus in Bristol. The main guy was spectacularly drunk and accidently charming. Or is that what he is always like?


It was the last date of the tour

and they shared a bottle of tequila during the course of their set. It was funny, and they do like a drink, but that's by some distance the most drunk I've ever seen them on stage!

We had to leave five or so songs into Malkmus's set because my friend felt so ill...


Yeah was pretty funny

I thought at first that they were just going to be embarrassing, but he was a load of fun that drunk.

The Malk show was good, if poorly attended. But that is par the coursefor a provincial Malk show.


New album's written

You mean done? Dusted? Both?! So it's all mastered and ready to go then?

Thanks muchly for the update by the way, I know who to turn to the next time I have a Clearlake-related query.


No

Written. Not recorded. It will be recorded though, and shouldn't take long when they do it.

I can't really say a lot more about it until this weekend...
