Saturday 23rd August - Beer and music festival in Milton Keynes

Get yourself over to Manor Fields (Bletchley Rugby Club) today for some beer, live music and general shenanigans at the second annual Party on the Pitch. Live music kicks off at 2pm today and goes on well into the evening - Trash Monkey will be launching their usual aural onslaught from 9pm, taking the stage just before Marshall Amp's very own international touring band take over to play us into the evening...

Come say hello, come have a beer. We'll be there from 2pm, of course!

Two shows over August bank holiday... get your drinking heads on!

Kicking off the bank holiday weekend in style, we'll be hauling ourselves over to Bedford on Friday 22nd, returning to Esquires with old friends Dry 'Til Friday (check out their myspace here). It's free entry, so why not grab yourself a rock'n'roll fix to start the weekend?

We'll then be hosting our second 'lecture of rock' over the August bank holiday weekend at Manor Fields in Fenny Stratford (Milton Keynes) for the second annual 'Party on the Pitch'. We invite you to attend with your beer hats on and as we blast 45 minutes of adrenalin (and most likely booze) fueled rock 'n' roll into the stratosphere above Milton Keynes. The festival promises over thirty beers and ciders on tap (enough said, we're there!), plus three days of live music and events for everyone to enjoy.

Bring your family, your nan, your goldfish, maybe even your shrink but be sure to lock up your daughters! For full details we recommend that you check out the festival website – www.mkpartyonthepitch.co.uk

APT gig re-scheduled for June 13th

Upcoming:
Just to give you all a heads up that Trash Monkey will be returning to APT at the County Arms, New Bradwell on Friday 13th June...

Who are APT? – APT (Aptly Named Music) are a bunch of true rock ‘n’ rollers dedicated to the local music scene. Seeing the chance to give bands a venue to show their material thier once monthly music night quickly took off as a great night for rockers of all ages. To accommodate the list of bands asking to play and the crowds turning up each month they had to expand putting bands on every week rather than every month! Great work guys!

You can read about their efforts on their myspace www.myspace.com/aptlynameduk

Coming soon:
We've now been confirmed to play on Saturday 23rd August at the Milton Keynes Beer Festival / Party on the Pitch '08 so be sure to come along and make that an awesome weekend (it all kicks of on the Friday). There'll be some great local bands playing over the weekend, including our friends Sirenide who'll be taking the stage after us and before the evenings headline act Chris George and the Marshall Band.

Enter November...

After a summer full of gigs and a compliment of local festivals, it wouldn't be surprising to see the band take a break – and if you’ve seen these guys on stage they certainly pack some energy. But as the nights become shorter and the skirts become longer, the five piece from Newport Pagnell return with two new dates to finish the year...

We'll be opening the show for Zodiac Mindwarp at The Pitz Club, Milton Keynes this Sunday 4th November, also on the bill are Spit Like This. If you're about tonight (Friday 2nd November) you can catch us in Northampton at The Racehorse, 15 Abington Square with Last Stop China Town heading the bill. More dates for 2008 are being scheduled and we'll keep you updated... 'til then, keep it loud!
