Francis Dunnery's Festive Message A big hello to all the It Bites listeners from around the world. I'm sure you all realize by now that the band have been active over the past few months. We all got in a transit van and went to Cumbria, set up our equipment in St Bridgets school, wrote some great new tunes and rehearsed some of the old ones. Needless to say it was effortlessly simple and easy and I had a really great time! 2003 was a special year for me mostly because It Bites finally got back together in friendship. After all we went through TOGETHER during our younger days, it seemed crazy not to put the It Bites machine back in operation. Anyway, I just want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I hope all of your dreams come true and that you all stay happy and healthy during 2004. have a fantastic time during the holidays and we'll see you guys once again in the near future. http://www.itbites.com/

for all you Belle & Sebastian lovers, did you checked out the just released record of: Isobel Campbell - Amorino If not, try to get an ear on it. IF I am not wrongly informed she is a former member of B&S. Lucky me I bought the vinyl and just found out that it is handnumbered and carriers something like no. 253. Very intimate and interesting music, at least for me. anybody also has this record?
good picks, did you ever heard "VUE"? I once saw them live, opening for "and you will know us by the trail of dead". They where great. When you are into the likes of your picks I guess you will love em too.
Awesome. mc mark: Those links IMA gave you are where I got all the wierd stuff, but they also have all the CD's that were released by Ten Hands. It takes a while to download them all, but it's worth it.
They play a "reunion" show about every 3 or 4 months in Dallas. I was thinking about doing the roadie to this one...until I found out Earl Harvin isn't playing. Wow, 87? I didn't discover them until around 89 or 90 but I spent many a night watching them from the front row at Fitz's. Good times. I wish they would come back here just once.
