pooping bird: Often moved about within a context of reason

Well hello there!

Time to get out of our wintersleep, don't you think? You may have noticed that we don't have a lot of
shows coming up for the moment. Well don't you worry: we're still alive and kicking.

We're working on different projects at the moment. Me and Dimi are playing in a band called Cobalt. At the moment we're recording our first demo. You can already check us out here or here.

In the meantime, Noon is trying to keep herself busy building a website for pooping bird. which is a lot more difficult than we thought it would be. So, bear with us.

And apart from the above, Noon and I are preparing for the Burnout festival, which is a gigantic project for school. I'm the head of production, and with only 3 weeks before the festival, I have my hands full with placing orders, making last minute decisions and whatnot. 

We also have kind of (well, actually really) exciting news! We've decided that we want to expand our thingy a bit by starting a booking and management agency. (I don't like the word "agency". I'm sorry for using it. It implies that it's all about business and money. That's not our purpose. So, let's just call it a collective. Sounds more friendly that way)

We're so lucky that the Antwerp based band Cat Claw (ex-Calicifer) have enough faith in us
that they want to work with us. So, yay!
They're  rehearsing in Kavka as we speak, because they're going to record their first demo tomorrow.
As we said: Exciting times are ahead of us.

Our last event was a massive succes, and I'd like to think it's because of the collaboration with the lovely people of cultusonline. We did a stonerrock special for the unlucky ones without a ticket to the Roadburn festival that same weekend. Mars Red Sky, who played Roadburn that weekend, were more than willing to play our gig in Kavka and so were Radar Men From The Moon, Cat Claw and Cobalt. It's been a while since we had so much fun and a bill full of exiting bands. Thanks again for everyone who spent the night with us!

Our next series of concerts and events will start this summer. I'm looking forward to it, and so is the rest of our team. Keep an eye on our website, facebook and twitter if you want to stay up to date.

See you soon!
