SPRING BREAK 2011 - YOUTH GONE WILD!

Your Winter Olympics have been dragging their big box of tapes around the country. Things have been getting pretty wild: pasties, napping, funny colored drinks, more napping, maybe singing a song or too… Check us out. And then join us at The Social in London on Tuesday 3 May and The Hatchet in Bristol on Friday the 20th for more of the same. Go on, it’ll be amazing…

SPRING, WHEN YOU’RE WINNING

Spring Tour

Hi everyone, we’ve got some brand new friends we’d like you to meet and a big box of tapes to get rid of, so we’re coming round your place to show off both. Well we are if you live in Exeter, Oxford, London or Bristol. People living elsewhere send us an email and we’ll sort something out…

Freakscene, I Can’t Believe It…

It can’t possibly be a year since we were last in Exeter (our spiritual home) to play at the Cavern. Further, it really can’t be eight (NINE!) years in a row that Andrew Winter Olympics has played there for New Year’s Eve (each year, being moved one day further away from the big night so as to reduce the damage caused by sweaty-singer-songwriting on THE YOUTH of today). But it is true. (I think).

We’re honoured and flattered to be able to extend that run for another year because The Freakscene Christmas party is pretty much the best night of the year in Exeter or anywhere else. This year, we’re thrilled to be playing with the amazing COMPUTERS (playing a set of Christmassy CLASH covers) and the eternally inspirational (and youthful) CUT-UPS.

Seeing as how we’re in such illustrious company, we’ll be drafting in a couple of very exciting guests to play alongside the FULL PROPER TOURING T.W.O. line up. I hope they’ve been practicing just as hard as we have.

There will be all manner of other exciting bands and DJs on too, plus a FREE XMAS GIFT WHEN YOU COME THROUGH THE DOOR!! This show is FREE if you get an invite from the Cavern, or £3 on the Door. DOORS 8-1.
