Stenna Stairlift and ting

So i trekked to Wembley today to have a pizza and song writing afternoon with
leigh "B&Q nails" Harrison!
and we actually managed to produce a nice little tune that I've called Stenna Stairlift....i don't think we can stick with that name tho as we'll probably get sued....i wonder if people still have stenna stairlifts...i remember that thora hird used to endorse them...bless her she must be about 150 by now!
anyway the first part of the song is written by leigh and its about a girl and a boy passing each other on an escalator and each one starts imagining a life with the other...it';s kinda like sliding doors but not!....anyway i thought it was a lovely concept so wrote a few more verses and that was that!
we recorded it on garage band but i think its a bit too rough to post but hopefully will have a better demo recording of it soon!
also working on a few more new ones at the moment...we seem to be having a writing frenzy recently...i tell ya if i could spend all day all long eating pizza and writing songs (then recording them on Garage Band) i would be so friggin happY!!
Also there's gonna be an article about us next week in The Times Online music section so I will post post post it up when it's published!
We've also got a real life proper proper manager now...a lovely lady called Julie Bernouis!
So we're very excited about working with her and feeling like a real proper band at last!
She and her friend Jodie have a monthly residency at The Old Blue Last called My Ex Boyfriend's records, and they always have wicked bands on so go go go! the next one is 20th November with Maths Class: www.myspace.com/myexboyfriend

Halloween tomorrow....we're going to Goldsmiths for the No Pain in Pop night...went last year and it was TIGHT so naturally i;m goin again this year! (also I;m too lazy to venture into town and Goldsmiths is just down the road from me!) coupla good bands playing including The XX so i would highly recommend it! www.myspace.com/nopaininpop
