Hi to all those who have heard the sound of eaves, for those who havent, Im the drummer from the band - see www.eaves.biz for sights and sounds.

I am pleased to report that eaves have already been asked to play at the vwwhitenoise festival here in Norfolk in August this year (weekend 12th-14th) - thats my kind of gig, cars, car enthusiasts, booze and people who enjoy some live music.

We are also playing at the Islington Carling Academy Bar on Tues 5th April. Tickets available from me (£3.50) if you fancy coming along.

Thanks to all of you who posted feedback, I hope you are still enjoying the album. And apologies to those who requested albums and have been waiting - I received a batch of jiffys yesterday and mailed your albums to you straight away - enjoy!

It could well be time to launch an assault on Radio1! TOMORROW I will post again and hopefully some of you guys will join me in trying to persuade Jo Whiley to give us a bit of air time. We have mailed her the album, (and to be sure we sent another by recorded delivery to ensure it was received) so fingers crossed she should have a copy available to her now.

I think her show starts at 10.00 so I will post again tomorrow to begin the fun.

I thought the CD was absolutely top-notch. Very professional and a great collection of music. I wish you and the band all the best mate, you certainly deserve to do well.

Certainly am, Dom. Went on again in the car this morning, to which my s/daughter commented, "You like this don't you. You've always got this on!" Nuff said!

Any other PHers fancy going along to the London gig? I've already emailed the band to say i want to go... but it would be great to meet more PHers at the same time.

Haven't been able to give it a proper listen. CD is in the car and I'm 3000 miles away at work. Last minute packing My fault.
I'll be giving it another listen when I get back in a few weeks.

Morning people

Okay, today is the day to see if we can get Radio 1, and in particular Jo Whiley, to mention and play some eaves music.

If you can spare a couple of minutes to put a mail together, send it to Jo Whiley requesting to hear eaves (maybe even a particular track) and why.

The email address is here: jo.whiley@bbc.co.uk
or you could text in on: 81199
or if you are really brave, you could phone in on: 08700 100 100.

Lets see if the PH massive can flex a bit of manipulative muscle...

Thanks in advance, and keep your radios on just in case!

I've borrowed your CD off one of my housemates who you very kindly sent a copy to. I've listened to it twice from beginning to end and I think you've got another fan. Seems like you've got a few more from this site too! I wish you luck with getting as far as you can with it. I will send an email for you to Jo tomorrow when she's on!

Good luck!
