THE BLAME
Lies with this boy..
Yes so it's the bad blogger Boonbeans here. Thought i would just stop by and say i have been very bad and not kept you up to date with all the OLO news/videos/photos/etc. The others seem to trust me with keeping this thing tickin' along and i have let them down, you down, and most importantly...i've let myself down. I have quit my job now so i have no money...i mean no reason not to post more of the things we do. We've been quite busy with getting our stuff together for the recent live gigs so that also explains the lack of new songs, radio podcasts, doodles, etc. We only have 2 gigs booked up now..one in may, one in june (we'll post about those soon) so we'll be trying to make some new sounds over the next few months. Thanks to those people who came to Sunday's gig. You'll be flooded with OLO goo at the weekend. Yes i do realise that i could have probably posted something interesting in the time it's taken me to type this.

UNDER THE INFLUENCE
'Under The Influence' is a weekly night on board The Thekla (Bristol) that asks the band/artist to play some music that has influenced them in some way then they play live (usually in an acoustic style) afterwards. We are doing this this Sunday (20th April). Here are the times..
6-8pm DJ SET
8-8.30pm LIVE SET
8.30-9pm DJ SET (Part 2)
We'll hopefully be playing some NEW unfinshed music. There maybe some new visuals too?? Whatever the set-up it'll be different from the 'Exotic' tour set. There will be a podcast of the DJ set that will be posted up either on Sunday or Monday.

BLOGAGEDDON!
Our uploading skills get some praise in the new issue of Bristol's Venue Magazine. Forget about the music, all a good band needs to do these days is blog about their blog. Once i post this i have a feeling the internet might get all confused and blow up!
'Fun-loving'? Are you joking!!? This is a painful job for all the workers.

EXTRA EXTRA!
To deal with the thousands of stupid photos we take, we have created a new page to post them up. We don't want to clog our news page up with them all so from now.. OLO Extra will be the dumping ground for most of our photographic masterpieces and anything else that you don't really need to see (but you can if you want to / you've nothing better to do / you are some kind of crazed uber fan).
See ALL the Homegame photos over at OLO Extra.
