  WELL THEN! How are we all feeling at the end of a nippy November - unscathed? Apart from dry lips and a case of the auld "bassplayer's thumb" I'm doing fairly ok, mental disorders accounted for. Hope is well with you and yours - BUT THAT'S ENOUGH PLEASANTRIES! What have "Four Blokes" been up to in the 11th calender month of the Gregorian cycle? Read on, reader, read on... _______________________________________________________ Reader's Digest A new special feature, how very enthralling! After the release of our new gramaphone record "I've Settled on Molly" at the end of October, I was very eager to see how it would be received... would people welcome the new sound or would I receive death threats and molotov cocktails via Royal Mail! I have compiled comments on the new tracks from readers of this very newsletter - a cross section of society's greatest minds to be sure. Here's what you lot thought of it: " I really like it...

The low-down on my (and thus Four Blokes') recent move to London, early efforts to recruit members for a London-based lineup, juicy details of the two recording sessions that took place this month, and a cliffhanger ending... let's begin. As a small aside, I got round to uploading our debut album on YouTube which means all our music is now avaliable completely for free! Not much on our account at the moment apart from some old gig footage and a music video for One of A Kind but watch this space - things are soon coming! Speaking of music videos, I filmed a little clip for our next single; the idea was a multi-camera setup of a mimed performance, but as I only had 1 camera I had to mime the song 6 times.
