I fell soundly asleep today while listening to movietone's self titled album. And I had a bad dream, but I guess I can't blame them for that

Hi, I am currently looking for bands, musicians and other performers that might be interested in performing at the Southbank Club in Southville, Bristol. The Southbank Club is a popular Arts Venue in South Bristol. I am currently working on our April to June program of events and am looking for local bands that would be interested in working with us. We put on a variety of music and arts events; including a community market (with music, poetry and arts workshops) open mic sessions and gigs and dance nights for more well known bands. Please could you get in contact with me by email if this is something you would be interested in? We are hoping to be promoting the April-June over the next few weeks, so if you are interested in playing during this time, please get back to us as soon as you can! I look forward to hearing from you, Jessie jessicamarycooke@yahoo.co.uk

got the first album and the sand and the stars a few weeks ago - this is simply one of the most fascincating bands i've discovered lately. does anyone know where i can get the lyrics - i'd really like to know what they're singing about on some tracks where the vocals are quite ambigious.
