Bluehorses - July Newsletter

Greetings Horseheadz!

Apologies if you've already received this, we appear to have had gremlins, 3 goblins and a troll in the machine who put quince jam and a blunt trout in the newsletter system and brought it to a standstill at an unidentified point during transmission :o

The band and entourage had a fab time in Montreux a couple of weeks ago and there's an excellent write-up with lots of cool pics by Andy up on the site:

Hope we see you somewhere - don't forget to come and say hi... it's always good to put a face to a name (ah... zodflurn747@hotmail.com, pleased to meet you at last, tho' to be honest I'm quite surprised to find you are in fact a giant pink squirrel)...

Lastly, as some of you may already know, Nathan has decided to call it a day and concentrate on fronting his own band. We're very sad to see him go, as his inimitable thunderous playing style and stage persona have contributed a huge amount to the band over the past 4 years. We wish him all the best with his new band and family life with Fluffy and their new son Luke. Rock on Thunderthumbs!!

The next few shows will see the return of our old pal Rob Khoo, BHs original bassist of 9 years, who's kindly agreed to help out in the Engine-Room on a voluntary basis while we look for a permanent replacement. Rob made the trip to Montreux with us and effortlessly slipped back into his gold lame dress (*surely 'his subtle, spatial, yet thumping bass style' - ed) and we know that many of you will look forward to saying hi to him again!

We're well on the way with a plethora of exciting new material for the next CD - it's Very 'eavy, Very 'orses, but with a few different twists along the way as usual! We now have our own studio set up at BH Towers, so can spend as much time as we need to produce a storming album without having to send Andy down to the docks in his best frock again.

And there'll be some terrific new stuff on the site in the next couple of weeks, courtesy of Mike Techno Furmston!!

Have a great summer all - see you soon

Ned, and all at BHT x
