HAPPY
NEW YEAR..... WHATEVER
So
now the final page of the 2007 Calendar has blown away and
we herald the new.... if only life was that simple for The
Rollin Stoned, such a confusing time of year this for the
band. While a hung over world was waking to a brand spanking
New Year, you might spare a thought for their plight last
Monday morning, the cockerel crowed, the Teasmade boiled and
on came the radio and with it the Omo bright and breezy tones
of the breakfast time DJ, ....”Hi! it’s a fantabulously
happytastic new year and this is Tony Blackburn welcoming
you to 1967”....., yep it’s just the start of another
Groundhog Year for the Rollin Stoned....
December
was pretty non-stop for the band so they’re enjoying
a short recuperative break from gigs. Turnout for all our
Christmas shows was terrific, as has been the case throughout
the year and we’d like to take this opportunity to thank
you all for your support we really do appreciate it.
There
is something new we can offer, some minor alterations have
been made to the format of the web-site, the main difference
being that there is now an entry page stage - sorry this does
mean one more click of your mouse, but it does free up our
home page for the news and updates that we were finding sometimes
got overlooked. All the old features and navigation are retained
and function as before. You will also notice on the home page
we have added a myspace link, this will take you to the band’s
myspace page at www.myspace.com/therollinstoned.
Also
on the subject of the web, you may find The Stones European
fan site (It’s only rock n roll at http://www.iorr.org)
of use, the IORR talk section is a forum where you can network
gig information and views, start endless debates etc and generally
put the world of rock to rights. You can check out an example
of one 'Talk Thread' instigated by a fan over the Christmas
period at the following:

All this cyber talk will no doubt mean something to some of
you, and the rest? well don’t worry you’ve, you’ve
still got a life.
Towards
the end of the month, we’ll be hitching our mule to the
wagon and heading out west, it is a shame we don’t get
out there much, so we hope this will satisfy some of those
who have sent in messages requesting our presence.That's it
for the time being, and the time being then, I need to check
out yellow pages to see if there’s a recovery service
that can tow us out of this time warp we’re stuck in.
Happy
New Year to you all (Oh! I think this is where I came
in)
