Hello,
Apologies for the delay between posts, since the last post we have done quite a bit but life has conspired to push this blog down the priorities list but we are back to ‘normal’ again now so..
…Gig News…
Thanks to all of those people who came to these gigs, cheered like loons, signed up to our mailing and/or said nice things to us after playing:
24/09/09 - Ryan’s Bar, Stoke Newington
A great night of dirty rock and roll and Bruce birthday hi-jinx. Thanks for squeezing in and getting sweaty in the dark. It was a wonderfully dirty basement gig, we bloody loved it!
09/10/09 - Famous 3 Kings, West Kensington
A strange gig in the back room of a sports bar, thanks to everyone who was there who created a great atmosphere in a venue which is not entirely conducive to live music.
24/10/09 – Hope and Anchor, Islington
A good gig in a good venue. We debuted one of our new ones The Family Blues which seemed to go down pretty well.
So those are the gigs up to date.. but the exciting news is that we have now confirmed 2 gigs to close out 2009…

Indie fun on a Thursday night? Yes please! 3 bands in a great venue, plus this place does some good Thai food yes, another Irish pub with a Thai kitchen.. it’s a real phenomenon isn’t it?

WhiteTrashParty Album Launch Party
The Good Ship
289 Kilburn High Road
London
NW6 7JR
This is a launch party gig for the excellent WhiteTrashParty (www.myspace.com/whitetrashparty) who are releasing their second album ‘Bleached of Childhood Dreams’. This should be a corking night of great bands in an excellent venue. We visited it recently and loved it.
…General News…
Quite a few people we have spoken to on our travels have been asking us about our plans for releasing any new material.. Quite simply, we want to release an EP in the New Year but what we record and put on it is constantly being discussed. We have a large number of new songs that are fighting for attention and we have some lo-fi home recording options that we are experimenting with. Needless to say, we want it to be the best it can be and will let you know what is happening as soon as we have things confirmed.
Cheers

Miller Gig 22/08/09 & General Update
Hello everyone,
…General News…
All though it looks like we only have Gig News at the moment there’s a whole lot of stuff going on behind the scenes such as vigorous rehearsing, finishing lots of new songs, recording plans, website making and general promotion. We could write a lot about all this other stuff but much of it is subject to change and/or a bit frivolous so we’re sticking to the concrete stuff at the moment! So…
…Gig News...
Date: Saturday 22nd August 2009
Venue:
The Miller
96 Snowsfields Road,
London Bridge,
London
SE1 3SS
Cost: £5 – On stage 8:30ish.
Website: http://www.themiller.co.uk
Map: http://www.themiller.co.uk/pub/map.asp
Here is some information from their website.. ‘The Miller is a friendly neighbourhood pub in the back streets of Borough. We serve freshly prepared food, real ales, a good selection of wines, and an extensive range of spirits.’ The venue part of The Miller is ’a small but perfectly formed venue in the back streets of Borough/ London Bridge, SE1 – capacity upstairs of 100, about 300 downstairs, with a late license.’ Who ‘put on live music five nights a week Tuesday to Saturday. Most nights we have four bands playing from about 7.30 onwards, all for just a fiver.’
We are opening up the night so will be on around 8:30ish for the start of what looks to be quite an impressive bill. We will also be playing a new song called ‘Beating Hearts’ for the very first time.
Until next time.

Welcome to The Interventions Newsblog...
Hello Everyone
As it says above, this is the place for the most up to date news and information about the band from gigs and events, radio, press or anything else.. it’ll be here.
… These are exciting times...
We write today on the day of our first gig.. the unveiling.. the launch night.. the first time anyone hears any of the other songs that we’ve lived with for a long time!.. Call it what you want, we cannot wait and are extremely excited. We’ve been working hard for months to get ‘gig fit’ and now we are a champagne bottle ready to explode. Come and watch us explode tonight:
Dublin Castle
94 Parkway,
…Radio News…
The Volts Show Radio (http://www.thevoltsshow.com/) is an independent internet radio show that supports underground music passionately, consistently seeking out and giving exposure to all those bands that are bubbling under..
They have playlisted ‘Speak of the Devil’ and may include it on one of their podcasts. A big thank you to them.
…Press News…
The excellent Mad Dog Magazine (http://www.maddogmagazine.co.uk/) included ‘Employees’ on their June edition playlist, the wonderfully named:
‘Netdog Volume 3: Butchery’, you can download the whole compilation on the site.
You can download this month’s edition of the magazine here: http://www.maddogmagazine.co.uk/backs/jun09.pdf
There is a really good interview with E from The Eels for any fellow Eels fans..
That’s it, for now… I’d better go as we’ve got to sound check later.
