One of Ireland's hottest bands, The Dudley Corporation, hit our shores this February, in support of their new album, 'In Love With The Dudley Corporation' (out 2nd February).

Those February dates are as follows:

FEBRUARY 2004

6th Brighton Freebutt with Rock of Travolta and Hey Colossus
7th Birmingham Cold Rice
10th London 93 Feet East with Hey Colossus and Querelle
11th Liverpool Zanzibar with The Most Terrifying Thing
12th Bristol The Louisiana
14th Glasgow The Winchester with Chris Leonard and Pan

Should you still be unsure, this is what the (other) critics have to say:

"The ghost of Chet Baker meets the ghost of Kurt Cobain on a sleepover at Burt Bacharach's ranch." - Evening Herald
"Complex, edgy, stop-start rushes without becoming too convoluted to jettison their tunes. Super-smart stuff." - Irish Times
"...tremendous intelligence and a tendency to go off without any notice on fantastic, mind-boggling tangents." - Hot Press

A band with influences ranging from Pinback to Queen, via Drive Like Jehu? DiS says: "GO SEE!"

Cold Rice is at Academy 3, above Bar Academy, next to the Academy (in the good old days, known as the Hummingbird....). Confusing eh? The guys who run CR are lovely... as is Dudley, who I camped next to at a very entertaining Reading Festival many moons ago....
