TOTAL HERO TEAM
We were EXTREMELY pleased to be nominated for TWO Buxton Fringe awards - "Best Comedy Show" and "New Writing". They also described us as "the happiest show on the fringe" and "the type of 3-D experience Hollywood can only dream of", which we'll be quoting all over the place! You can see all the results here:

You can also have a listen to some of the SONGS from the show via our Edinburgh Fringe page - click on the "Listen With Soundcloud" link HERE:

DUE A DEUCHARS
Steve and I have recorded a song and video all about how much we like Deuchars IPA, which you can see HERE:

Warning: it's VERY catchy! It's for a competition to win some VOUCHERS and perform at Caledonian Breweries when we're in Edinburgh. I struggled, briefly, with the ETHICS of this sort of thing, and you can see my MUSINGS on the matter in the blog, here:

I WANT TO FIND OUT HOW IT ENDS
The new Validators single "I Want To Find Out How It Ends" is due to be released at the end of the month on iTunes, Spotify, Bandcamp and so forth. All being well it'll tie into the start of the "A Brief History Of Time Travel" podcast series, for which it is the theme tune. We've got a rather GRATE video to go with it too - a LOT more news about this next time!

IN OTHER NEWS
Don't forget, the rather marvellous tribute album to ME, "It Only Works Because You're Hibbett" is very much still available as a download and I think there's a few CDs left too - details HERE:

Meanwhile, if you've not downloaded a copy of "Like A Braunstone Cowboy" yet, and would like to, please do so IMMEDIATELY, as it's going to be taken offline first thing tomorrow!

And I think that's enough excitement for now - thanks for listening, and if you're coming to either of the Fringes I'll see you there!

Cheers,

Mark
