FIRING BLANKS

About Me

Started off in around spring/summertime in 2007 . We got our first gig in october that year and they have been coming in steadily ever since. &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp We play punk rock with tinges of ska that are becoming ever more frequent. &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbspOur lineup ,james vox guitar,chris guitar,tom(veggie)bass and stevo on drums, hadnt changed until late 2008 when we decide to recruit rory on vox and sax to bring more to the sound . The line-up changed again in 2009 to :rory , james , veggie and stevo . &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp Weve played mainly around the chesterfield area and even ventured out to birimingham at the black horse .But that doesnt mean we wont go further. Over the time weve been together we have shared the stage with bands like : population lost , the reform,the hostiles , the shadowcops , the inside revolution steve and the raise and the overloads , worm and eternal stench We're always on the look out for gigs so if you have space on a slot we'll play it . Now fuck off and get your arses down to a gig! email [email protected] or [email protected] to book us or give us a message on here You should create your own MySpace Layouts like me by using nUCLEArcENTURy .COM's MySpace Profile Editor !& The e.p. is now being distributed by highland punk distro(see top friends) and is availiable from us at a gig or on request through here Oh yeah and we're on facebook now
