Please feel free to go forth and purchase them.

mrs.peacock on myspace

Apparently, getting a myspace page is what all the cool kids are doing right now. So naturally we had to get in on that shit.

Benefit: you can hear our songs online.
Downside: myspace is owned by Rupert Murdoch, who my friends on the internets tell me might just bit a bit of a cock.

Anyway we couldn't get www.myspace.com/mrspeacock because some 16 year old girl already has it, so we had to settle for www.myspace.com/mrspeacocknz which isn't so bad I guess.

Go have a look, why don't you. And add us to your friend list if you're that way inclined.

side project alert

Dave's other band, the Galloping Hooves of the Apocalypse, now have a myspace page.

You should go visit it.

While we're on side projects, one of mine has a gig coming up - The Suave Jockeys, a musical three piece, will be headlining Comedy Underground, a brand new comedy gig at Bodega in Wellington, on Sunday 26 March (click the link for more details).

green room quite nice, actually

Our gig last night at the Green Room, the relaunched monthly comedy night at Kitty O'Shea's, went pretty damn well, we think.

If you live in Wellington, and you're at all interested in comedy, we strongly recommend going along to the next one, which will be on the second Sunday of April (that's the 9th). You might also want to consider going along to Comedy Underground, the new monthly comedy night at Bodega. The first gig, on Sunday March 26, features The Suave Jockeys - an act which includes Matiaha "Mutts" Paku, Cori Gonzalez-Macuer... and me.

Anyway thanks to all of those who came to The Green Room last night or to Vic Uni Orientation last Thursday - if you like what you saw, then please come see our festival show later this year.

another superb gig (if we do say so ourselves)

Last night, we headlined the comedy night at Vic University Orientation (as foreshadowed below, where we said that we were going to do it).

Actually if you bought a ticket, you'd know that even better than headlining we were one of the "Guests" in "Brendhan Lovegrove and Guests", but lets not get into that now. In any case we closed the show and we think it went well.

Our apologies to any innocent first year students who had their 'ear cherries' popped last night. Think of it this way: it had to happen sometime. And you were better off having it happen with nice guys like us, than with the other sort of guy. I know at least one person there liked us (especially Dave)...

In any case our next gig is this Sunday at The Green Room - hope you can make it along.
