9-8/9/10/11 - The Disco Students Live in New York 2004 - uhhuh5, will be released in just over a week. The sleeve looks great - done in the style of a New York subway sign. I went down to Sudbury last week, to the House of Sound - a small studio run by New Zealander Campbell Downie. We spent a few hours tidying the recording up - and it sounds good to me.
My friend John Catlett has done the cover - all very nice.
So, we await the results - the master and the artwork have been sent up to Muirhead in Scotland for pressing. More news soon!

Been bit of a strange time at Lake Disco Student. A spot of the old internals - but now all is ok.
We had to cancel the gig at Eyelash @ POP - at the very last moment. The live CD from New York is in the process of being released - should be out in a couple of weeks. I'm really pleased with it , it's a tad rough and ready, but I think it is far more representative of The Disco Students than the GLD EP was.
We're now looking at recording our next studio record - "The Most Handsome Man On TV" and "Mark E. Smith's Dead" look like being two of the tracks with one other.

It's going to be a busy Autumn for The Disco Students. The live New York CD - "9/8.9.10.11" is going to contain eight songs - from our performance at Pianos on 9th September. Hopefully,it'll be out in a month or so. We've lined up four more dates for October and November and we're planning to go into a studio to record a new three track CD. Looks like "Most Handsome Man on TV" and "Mark E. Smith's Dead" will definitely be included, with one extra song to be decided upon. We had to pull out of our gig at Eyelash at POP last week - the first time The Disco Students have ever had to cancel. We're also looking at playing at The Limelight Theatre in Aylesbury on 7th January - "The Homecoming".
