Long Blondes tour UK, appear on radio, do US
holliy by holliy May 19th, 2005
OK, so it's not exactly an invasion. They're just going over there to play some gigs - but they'll be whoring their new single over here first...

Out on June 13th through Angular Records, said single is commonly known as 'Appropriation (By Any Other Name)' but will also answer to 'Albert'*. You'll doubtless be able to get your hands on a copy at the gigs listed below. In the interests of adding a bit of variety to proceedings, they're also appearing on Mark Riley's Rocket Science show on BBC 6 at 1pm on June 4th.

And then: to America! to see if they can tame the Supersized, Freedom Fries-chomping beast. If they fail, the UK may well break off diplomatic relations and press the UN to instigate trade sanctions. You heard it here first...

JUNE
1st, Leeds Warehouse a Club NME night with Neil’s Children
3rd, Liverpool University a Club NME night with Neil’s Children
6th, Sheffield Ice Rink Mayfair Suite single launch with Chips For The Poor, The Sugars and Kid Acne
9th, Darlington The Forum a Club Strut night with Snow White
10th, London Plastic People
11th, London Nambuccas -single launch with Good Shoes
16th London Instore @ Pure Groove, Holloway Road 6:30pm
16th London On The Rocks with The Sugars (tbc)

*This might well be a lie. I never said I could be trusted.
