King Brick has checked in to Blogger

Good afternoon. We realise it's been a while, so we though we'd update you on the bubububububu-BRICK!

So what's happening? Well, I (Jack, the tall one, silly curly hair. Stupid camo PRS guitar? Yeah?) have been attempting to master some demos from Former Miss Czechoslovakia. There were supposed to be up months ago but I'm having computer issues ie I haven't got one nor the money to buy one. Luke blew his bass amp up, so we had to scrounge for our last couple of gigs, which we did most of the time anyway so it doesn't really make a soddin' difference. Anthony cut his hair off. And smashed his crash to smithereens, and hasn't bought a new one yet.

We've got lots of bits of songs. Ones that have stuck with us over the year. So they're tried and tested as far as we're concerned. And they're fucking good.

Luke's back at Uni, so he'll be getting bored soon and want to procrastinate his assignments. My work's getting lighter and better so that's good. And Anthony has also started Uni but he probably doesn't realise it so no difference there.

With a few tube replacements, a bass amp investment and a crash, we'll be back. We love King Brick and we want you to do too. We miss playing live and making Ben Marshall's ears bleed.

So no fear folks, we're coming back!

Update April 2010

We've been quiet recently...

I (Jack) have been gigging a fair bit with a band of new folks called Former Miss Czechoslovakia. It's been fun and there's some really nice music coming out from there. But fear not folks, my heart will always be with Brick (L).

We've had a few rehearsals here and there- making sure we don't rust-up too bad. We're working on a new song from Luke and it's sounding fucking awesome. The rest of us are waiting on his lyrics though :P

Plans are for gigs and recordings for the summer. I missed summer last year thanks to a personal incident, so I'm up for making the most out of 2010. Now the days are getting longer, brighter and warmer I can venture into the garage and set some recordings up.

Plans for new songs are ripe also. I've got some lyrics and a lot of inspiration from playing with Czech. When work and real-life issues calm a bit I'll ramp it up to the max.

But yeah, we're still here folks- we ain't going anywhere and we're as loud as fuck.

KING BRICK @ The Sumo

Gig at The Sumo, November 12 2009

Hi guys

We're no where near organized, but we do have a big come back gig coming up. This isn't it, but this is going to be a frankly amazing night out. The Sumo is amazing, we've posted about it before, and we're delighted to be back, not just because they do good beer.

Personally, I'm showcasing my new gear, and I can't wait to see how hot I look in the photos.

It's a standard drill, fiver with the flyer (attached).

We hope to see you guys down there, just because it's nice to get out and socialize every now and then. We don't do it often because we're sad recluses, and quite frankly we don't like peoples company. For for Thursday though, we'll make an exception :)

Looking forward to it guys,
Kind regards, Jack
