TOYC OUT MONDAY, THE DOWNLOADING BLOG!

We're very very excited! I hope you all like TOYC, and i apologise in advance for this rant. I hope at the end of it you can comprehend where we're coming from!

So our first album comes out on Monday, which some people that preordered it may have received today. We have been worried for a few weeks that it may have leaked, but we have been lucky and it hadn't. However, now it's out there, I suppose the inevitable will happen. It will end up on illegal downloading sites. Now usually when it happens to albums, we, probably like most of you say – what's the big deal? Hey, most of the band have downloaded an album or 2 without paying for them. But recently we have been learning about the effect illegal downloading is having on the music industry.

 I hate to put so blunty, but downloading music without paying for it is stealing. The problem is most people see a faceless mutli million pound company and think 'I'm sure they don't need the money', but whatever happens you are stealing from the members of the band. This is even more the case for our band! As you all know, we chose to release on a small independent record label, which meant we weren't given loads of money in advance and that most of the money from the sales goes to the label. Every album sold some of the money goes direct to the band.

 Most of it goes back into running the band. It costs us a lot to go out on tour to play for you, rehearse, pay for equipment we need, and also to get back into the studio to write and record our next record. If the band doesn't receive money from sales of the album. The band can't operate.

 We want to play to people in other countries but we have already had to turn down one trip to America and 2 trips to Europe. We have been told that if as many people had paid for downloading our songs than had illegally downloaded them we would have been able to get over there!  

 Some of the money ultimately goes to us. Now we aren't asking to get rich or anything like that. We don't want to be rich rockstars as Nickleback put it with 15 cars and bathrooms we can play baseball in. We just want a bit of cash to live on so that we can continue making music for you. We all gave up a lot to be in this band. If we don't get enough money, we simply can't tour this record and keep making others.

 Please, please, please help our band continue! If you do get  copy from a friend and you like it, please go out and get a real copy when you can!!!

 We are really sorry to preach like this, but we know, like us, people simply don't know the facts and the damage caused by illegal downloading!

 Thanks,

 Josh

Questions all you rascals always seem to ask!

So we thought we'd post some questions that keep coming up from you guys, along with our answers, it's simple. I hope this helps! You keep asking, we'll keep answering, what a simple but beautiful concept.

Q: Where can i buy your album?
A: Our debut album comes out in October, early October to be precise. You'll be able to buy it from everywhere, online and in shops, good times players, good times.

Q: When are you douchebags coming to play near me?
A: All booked shows will be put up on our page, and we're real sorry if we're not coming to a town near you soon, but i promise we will be sooner than you think, game?

Q: Can i meet you guys at a show?
A: This is the dumbest question we get asked and it keeps coming up, ofcourse you can!! We only tour so we can meet new people and it's a bonus if you guys are into our music! We owe you guys everything!

Q: Can you tell me who the special guest are on the 'Give it a name festival' Line up?
A: We can't, we could get thrown off the festival for those kind've shannigans.

Q: How are you?
A: Tired, broke, frustrated, unloved, angry, envious, worried, disbondent, fed up, misunderstood, over estimated, under estimated, overrated, ya know everything a band should be feeling like, right?

Q: Can you give me a photopass for the ( enter name) show?
A: I am afraid we can't, if you want to email our press person Carina, she will be able to help with all press passes for our shows! Sorry!

Q: You guys are soo young, and so shit, why is your band playing with ( enter name)?
A: You're right, we are young,  and if you've got a problem with our band, it's your problem, not ours, peace and love homie, peace and love.

Q: OMG you guys are so cute, can i like, have your babies and marry you!?
A: Thanks, that's too nice of you. But right now we don't want no kids, and marriage isn't really what a bunch of thrivers such as ourselves want, thanks anyway!

Q: I messaged/commented you guys, and you didn't even bother to comment back, whats your freakin' problem?!
A: WE genuinely do try and reply to everyone, but it's really hard at the moment because we're so busy with the album, it's even worse when we're on tour! Please don't get pissed and mad with us, we appreciate all of your support more than anything, fo' real!

Q: My sisters friend said she had cheeky time with one of you in ( enter city) back at your hotel room, she said you were rubbish at cheeky time, is this true?
A: Well, your sisters friend is a very talented young lady, because NONE OF US have ever taken ANYONE other than our driver and merch boy back to our accomodation. We rarely stay in hotels, and just to clarify, we're all amazing at cheeky time, FACT!

If you've got anymore questions, just write to us via this blog, and we'll post an answer for y'all to see, deal?

Heres some more, i'll continue Updating everytime we get a question!

Q: If you could play any venue in the world, what would it be?
A: The Astoria in London, we've grown up going to shows there, that would be amazing! PLEASE NOTE WE ARE, ON THE 27TH OF OCTOBER.

Q: Why haven't you got hoodies on your webstore, is there something wrong with you, i am freezing my cute little toot off here!
A: WOOOOAAAH, What you saying!! I'll have you know we're currently setting up a sweet new merch store which has BRAND NEW t-shirts, jumpers, hoodies etc! So chill, literally, until that is uploaded!

Q: When you coming to America, you do realise we're far better looking than the english, right?
A: Yo, hush. I 'll have you know i could get all patriotic, but i wont. Unfortunately we will NOT be coming to United States of America until we have a release out there, so we'll most likely be touring the states towards the end of the year, SORRY!

Q: Whats your favourite songs to play live?
A: At the moment it is most definitely our new stuff, which you guys haven't heard yet! We've got a few that we're really excited for you all to hear, keep an ear out, literally.

Q: Do you ever get star struck when you meet other bands?
A: Yes! We went to the kerrang awards back in August. It was ridiculous, every where i looked there was somebody from a band we loved. I hope that feeling never leaves, because that would be a tragedy in more ways than one.

Q: You're always talking about the states but will you come to Canda?
A: Hell yeah! We're also planning on touring Europe and Asia with our debut record.

Q: Favourite gig you've ever played and why?
A:  We played a show on our last headline tour in London. It was sold out and the show was just mental. We were also so stoked to see the kids going mad for our buddies All Forgotten and Flood of red, so that added to the anxiety before we played. I can honestly that say thats been the best show, i've never seen a human pyramid at one of our shows, but it happened there!

Q: If you could kill any dipshit celebrity, who would it be?
A: Britney Spears, to save her kids the trouble in about ten years or so when they realize they'll never live down their surname, may god have mercy on their souls.

Q: Oh my gooooooooooodddddd, is it true like you guys actually get driven around by THEEEE Bobby S ?!?!?!?!
A: It is. Our driver, Sir Bobby S is a legend in his own right. This man has seen more in 20 odd years than most will ever see in a life time. He's wrestled with bouncers on our behalf, stolen bark/wood from service stations for us to sell at shows for £5 a pop, massages our backs when we are tired, gets super drunk and chats up fat chicks ( just because it's funny ) and blares Phil Collins in the van at 2 o'clock whilst we're all exhausted trying to sleep on the way to our resting place. Check him out in our top friends, peace.

Q: You guys playing any other festivals this year other than GIAN?
A: Maybe, maybe not. Possibly, Possibly not. Perhaps, perhaps not. This is indeed a viscious cirlce which realistically only has one definite outcome, WAIT AND SEE muahahahaha. EDIT, YES, READING AND LEEDS

Q: Whats your funniest tour story?
A: Dundee, was r-i-d-i-c-u-l-o-u-s

Q: Can my clothing company endorse you?
A: At the moment we don't want to take on anymore endorsements. Sure it's all free, but thats not why we do it. We only take on endorsements if it's our friends eg Hi wonderclothing, Cheer up clothing OR if we really really like the company and what it stands for.

Q: Are you guys ever going to come play Ireland?
A: Yes, we will be coming to Ireland hopefully in the summer, so get ready for a party yo!!!

Q: Does it bother you that the majority of your fan base is 15 year old girls?
A: It kinda does but at the same time it doesn't. If anything it's just a curiousty thing. We're grateful for anybody that likes our band, it means the world to us, whether you're a boy or girl, 15 or 18, it doesn't really bother us, we feel the same way about everyone.

Q: What label are you on?
A: We are still unsigned, we've had a few offers from labels you would've recognised, but they just didn't feel right at the time. We'll see what happens when they all hear our demoalbum.
