GOOD SORTS BAD SPORTS - PART 1 AVAILABLE FROM BIGSTAR RECORD - ************************************************************ *****What a year it has been for The Toss, our first year!!! It started on Australia Day Jan 26th, out first gig with Toxic Shock and Fear and Loathing at The Squatters Arms. A hot night with no mixer the PA sounded shit, couldn’t hear the vocals, then the bar ran out of beer on tap, spent more over the bar than we got paid. All in all it was a great night and a welcome back to the live scene in Adelaide. We recorded in the Adelaide hills and put a two song demo into 3D, which to our surprise was played regularly. Debuting in the top 20+1 at No 4 and staying in the charts for 4 weeks. We also placed the demo on MP3.com and it reached No1 on the Punk charts for the most played. Our myspace started getting hits and people wanted to be our friends. We are reaching the 10000 hits after 1 year.
