goodness me – i was watching the coverage of the reading festival and thinking back to Reading back in 89 when it went from a metal to festival to an “indie” one. Was where i fell for TPE. So i googled and found this – fan bloody tastic – gutted i cant make the london gig but look forward to the tour next year if ive read it correctly. fanbloodytastic.

I just put some old rave vinyls on the decks and there is still *nothing* compared to the 12″ mix of Hey Venus. I remember DJing when Rave was THE thing . Pulling this piece of brilliancy out of the record box made me shiver and the crowd mad. It is still outstanding. I would travel far just to see TPE live playing this remix version. If you would like to come to Austria / Graz, you will be welcome from a very big fan. Tom (ready for a supporting DJ set)

Whoops!

You’re absolutely right. I set up info (at) thatpetrolemotion (dot) com but not at thepetrols (dot) com. I just did, so it should work from now on. Of course, you can email me directly at smack (at) thepetrols (dot) com.

Sorry about all the (dot) nonsense. The things we do because of spam.

I never left!

Thanks for the kind words, ashlynn37. I don’t think we’ll be playing Brum this time, but we always had a great time there in the past when we did, so if we decide to do more dates, it will definitely be on the map.

I just heard the news about the Electric Picnic, it is fantastic. I was the girl who used to bring you tequila and beer when you played in UCd and trinity College in Dublin, and they were some gigs, especially that farewell one in the Tivoli.! I just had my 40th birthday and felt really old until the DJ, who was Francois, who had been one of the Entertainment Officers in the colleges, played Hey Venus for me.

Can’t wait to see you all again!!!!

Anne

Are you seeing any spam comments, though?

We have to approve all the comments & posts. I’m surprised, though, that they can register, as there’s a CAPTCHA during registration. You know, the thingy where you have to type the letters you see.

I’ll purge the forum membership. Thanks for keeping an eye out for us.
