It's very sad when people whore themselves via the internet. But if you can't beat 'em....

ahhhh ... Right here we go

Send Piggery a message on here... or
send a postcard to Bury, Greater Manchester PO BOX 422,
or
When you enter bury town centre, there will be a guy called keith sat on the wall of the parish church in the town centre (usually has a bottle of strong white cider in his hand ... and smells a bit of piss if im being honest!) -- anyhoo ask him if he has seen us :o)

You are damn right its not very rock n roll .....<SIGH>. You should all hang your heads in shame you geeks/nerds!!

Can you imagine the news "Keith Moon has sadly had to hang up his drum sticks due to repetitive strain injury to his hands caused by repeatedly typing LOL whilst in online chatrooms".

We're whores too:

www.facebook.com/thesugarbullets
www.twitter.com/thesugarbullets (sync'd with Facebook updates)
www.myspace.com/thesugarbullets

Facebook has done more for us in the last 6 months than Myspace has in the last 3 years in terms of interacting with fans.
Myspace has recently lost the plot, trying to compete with Facebook with status streams and new complicated event forms....whatever happened to just a simple easy-to-use Myspace profile page.
We ALWAYS get people commenting on our FB updates and videos etc but never on myspace.

myspace is nostalgic - it reminds me of the joys of 56k dial up!!!!

Cant stand all this shameless self-promotion ...

www.myspace.com/ukinnuendo

Seriousely , though , it definately helps youing bands like ours to find promoters ect ...

# Posted by ~ THE SUG4R BULLETS ~ - 13/05/2010, 14:37 (GMT)

Hey Innuendo, just had a quick listen to a couple of demos on your myspace...sounds good lads keep it up.

@luke taylor: twitter is ok, got us a couple of shout outs on Rock Radio and we seem to get a steady trickle of 'followers'. Lots of them I have no idea who they are or why they follow though. Got it sync'd with facebook so it just looks after itself.

Myspace is totally dead as a network, but it's basically just our website.

No difference between using the above or coming on here plugging your gigs, it's all good. Of course it helps when you sit in front of a computer all day for a living...
