Here's a nice link.  My secret?  Consistency - note the same world weary scowl from 1978 still being used to great effect in 2009.

The set for the recent gigs, and for Friars is :
1. Song For Mark E Smith/Mark E Smith's Dead
2. Kafkaesque
2. South Africa House
4. Mark E Smith Wannabe
5. The Most Handsome Man On TV
6.. I Ain't Been With No Prostitute
7.. Fire At Earth Records
8.. I Met My Girlfriend At A Friars Gig
9. We're All Gonna Die .

Two songs from 1979 - two from the last month - the others spanning the history of the DS.

We've just recorded the two tracks for the single - 'I Met My Girlfriend At A Friars Gig'  and 'Fire At Earth Records'.  Kris Needs has been good enough to design the cover, David Stopps has recorded the intro - and I'm so pleased with the results.
We recorded the songs at Appletree studios in rural Ludgershall. Years ago, I wouldn't have entertained using a studio in a little Bucks village - I'd have insisted on being in London - you know, at the centre of everything. Isn't it interesting looking back at yourself? The record is now being pressed, and will be ready in around 10 days.

We are recording the single on the 24th September. There'll be two songs - "I met my girlfriend at a Friars gig"  and "There's a fire at Earth Records". There will be 500 copies presses on vinyl - then it will be available on ITunes. Kris Needs has agreed to design the sleeve.  The plan is to get the record into the charts. It can be done.

The new D/S line up is on the go. We have two London gigs in early October prior to the Friars appearance. There is a possibility of a 7" vinyl release to coincide with the Friars date. We'll have to see.

The Disco Students will play at Friars Club, Aylesbury on 23rd October 2009 - as part of the Friars' 40th Anniversary. The D/S will be sharing the stage with Penetration and Stiff Little Fingers. All the information is on the Friars site.
