It’s been a while since we last posted here, so I thought it was time for an update…

New album coming along nicely

Our new album is progressing steadily. I built a little web app to let Tim and I track our progress, but I haven’t managed to get it online yet. I’ll post a link once I get it up somewhere useful! Also thinking about creating a “widget” for it so Mac users everywhere can keep tabs on us if they like!

No official release date yet, but we’ll post on that once we’re clearer what’s happening. We might do an EP as a teaser in June or July… again, we’ll post something about it when we know for sure.

Keith Fig flies solo
Had a great time on Tuesday 1st May at Acoustic Edinburgh doing a solo set. Tim would have been there, but he had other commitments and the short notice of the gig meant he had to miss it.

I took along a hilarious miniature cardboard cutout of the Timster and an audio clip of him singing on my phone. This meant he could make his presence felt without actually being there… got a few laughs and I think he’s now on somebody’s notice board. I think I am going to market it – the ultimate accessory, a MiniFigTM! Complete with one bar of Timebomb’s refrain built in!

Gav Brown took some nice pics of me doing my thang – they’re at the end of this post.

Really enjoyed the set. It was 3 songs – ‘Angel Delight’, ‘My Boy Icarus’ and ‘Is There Something I Don’t Know?’ – the first and last of which were new songs, just finished that afternoon and so fresh that Tim hasn’t even heard them yet. They went down really well, which is great – it’s always nice to get to try out a new song or two on a willing audience… the good thing is that now they have garnered some positive feedback, Tim will get to hear them!

-.-

So that’s what’s been happening since our last post. This post will probably slip down the blog a bit as I have some “future” stuff to post, so I hope it get’s read!
