Another cancellation story in today as we’ve had to shift the Myp Et Jeep / Cry Yuma gig from July 7th. The gig had been booked earlier in the year for both bands but the lads in ‘Jeep are off to put the feet up at Oxegen for the weekend while Cry Yuma have lost their drummer and will have to put off their appearance until September or afterwards.
Both bands have new recordings on the way with Myp Et Jeep’s new album expected shortly while Cry Yuma are off to Windmill Lane to start laying down some new tracks as well.
The cancellation is good and bad. Bad of course that we’ve to move the gig and miss two great bands but good in a sense that we’ve a weekend off. We’ve had our busiest month gig-wise having had one weekend off since May (having done the 12th, 19th, skip, June Bank Holiday weekend, June 9th, June 16th, June 21st, June 23rd and all this week June 27th to June 30th with Heart Shaped Vinyl). Thats seven gigs, 16 acts and four nights of theatre rolled up in the last few weeks. Rather than risk burning out I reckon the weekend off will be nice and we’ll reschedule both bands for later in the year.
With the 7th off, we’re going to be back on the live front with the One Take Sessions on July 12th in Cleere’s Theatre before the KKM crew head to the Mantua Project July 13th/14th in Roscommon for a weekend of music. Anyone going?
