A quick one, from all at Screamfeeder HQ: Let’s vote Howard out this weekend.
We’ll buy you all a drink, personally, if we manage this. [get your orders in]
Screamfeeder are home from tour, preparing to write some new material.
We have our cool TOUR T shirts for sale at the site right now! www.screamfeeder.com

OK so we’re most of the way through our Album Tour. Playing at The Esplanade was (as always) one of the highlights but as “Australia’s smokiest venue” it played havoc on the old *health*. Never mind though, we will bounce back – and be doubly stronger than before.
Here’s the run for this week:
Electrico are our mates from the fair isle of Singapore. Here to show off their rock wares and try to drink 2.5 litres of voddy and smoke 2 cartons of ciggers each in 10 short days. They’re doing well on all fronts so far. You should really come and check them out.
*They might be selling some duty free ciggers at the merch stand too actually.
Talking of the merch stand (oh yeah, that was smooth!) we have very nice new album / tour shirts. check the site for all this and more: www.screamfeeder.com
see you all at the doctor’s.

Our new 22 track album INTRODUCING: SCREAMFEEDER – singles and more 1992 – 2004 is out next week, and we’re off on tour to celebrate. Our good mates ELECTRICO from Singapore are schlepping all the way over here to support us on half the dates (as well as doing their own shows).
I had a word with the manager of Jacka’s out at Kedron the other night, see if I could get him to give the dude from Lo Tel (he’s moved up to Brissie to be closer to us, whaddya know?!) a few nights off work so they could fill in the missing support slots.
He said I might have to go in and do a few daytime slots myself to make up for it, so I’m trying to hook Darek (who has run off and joined Intercooler as well now, two timing little tart!) into that little number. Negotiations are still underway, so fingers crossed.
Anyway here’s how it’s looking.
Plenty more info on the site.
Now onto our “good on everyone” section for this newsletter.
Good on THE WHO for rockin the house down in Sydney a couple of weeks ago.
Good on Jay from FRENZAL RHOMB for keeping his cool while stickin’ it to the man (Austereo jokers Kyle and Jackie O). Hear the whole interview here: http://www.bombshell.live.com.au/Frenzal_Fox_FM_Interview.mp3 and read the guff here: http://www.spinstartshere.com/archives/music/_frenzal_rhomb_vs_kyle_and_jackie_o.html
And good on us for being around so damn long and and putting out a crankin’ singles album eh? We even plan to play a few of the old chestnuts at some of the shows – IF you’re good, and IF you request them beforehand.
Tim and Dean’s new band THE WHATS have some shows coming up too www.thewhats.com
See you all, as always, at the bar. Here’s to another 12 years!
lotsa love

Well it’s been a long time since sending out a newsletter but we’re hitting the boards again, so here’s the guff:
Brisbane: This Saturday night the 3rd July we’re playing at The Zoo with Melbournians Machine Translations.
Next Saturday night the 10th, we’re doing a “valley fiesta weekend” night at The Troubadour
NSW / VIC / SA / WA: we’re off on tour in September, check the site: http://www.screamfeeder.com
We also have our singles album coming out in August. It’s gonna be a 79 minute, 21 track bonanza of feeder rock over the last 12 years. The more observant of you will notice that we haven’t actually put out 21 singles, but we’re filling it up with other songs which shoulda been, or coulda been singles too. It’s gonna be a whole mess of fun.
No enhanced features, or DVD capers or screensavers or anything like that, just straight up music (nothing to do with the fact that my computer goes all squiffy trying to play mutimedia cds).
It’s gonna be called Introducing: Screamfeeder – just as well we’re not a household name or anything.
Win a free copy of the album by correctly guessing all 21 songs..
See you all at the bar,

(but not before some dumb jokes)
I went to buy some camouflage trousers the other day..
but I couldn’t find any.
I went to the butchers the other day and I bet him 50 bucks that he couldn’t reach the meat off the top shelf.
And he said, ‘no, the steaks are too high.’
My friend drowned in a bowl of muesli.
He was pulled in by a strong currant.
Our ice cream man was found lying on the floor of his van covered with nuts & hundreds and thousands.
Police say that he topped himself.
