    When and where is your Paris gig Olly? I saw Weller in a theatre in Paris a few years back.
  • Used to really like Van Susans but gone a bit too commercial for me now. Sell out! Keston Cobblers Club, now they're good.




    Seriously, really like it and will buy the LP (they are still called that aren't they?) when it comes out. The Sound of Young Bromley
    Cheers, Henry....I also purchased Keston Cobblers Club's "You Go" from I-tunes....great little band and sound.
    I got the references from the Lifers who have posted their favourite bands on here in another topic...

    Olly...according to Ticketmaster, you're playing the Bull & Gate in Islington on Saturday week (26th)! No shameless plug for the gig!! What's happening?? Have the band not told you about it?? ;-)

    Oh yes! Forgot about that one! It's part of the IPO Festival so yes that's our next London Gig. Good find!

    Just listened. Is it supposed to make you feel tearful? or is that just me?! Having said that i flipping love it.

    What time of day or day of the week was that filmed on London Bridge as looks empty.

    I know I'm a couple of weeks behind the curve but got to say I love this track ( if you guys wanted to shamelessly sell out I think it would sound great on an advert). I downloaded this and a wholeload of other VS tracks, and as a mark of respect for the Charlton connection I even downloaded them legally !

    Got Secenery from the VS website, and it arrived with copy 88/250 of Bricks (which seemed to be free), so thanks very much for that.

    No duff tracks and some real stand outs, great for top volume singalongs in the car. Even my children (15 and 17) tolerate it (they wont express enthusiasm because it's mine) but I am adding to the average age of the VS fanbase (47).

    Great work, Olly - keep it up, I look forward to much more.

    Good work so far Olly. Is the album out yet and will it be on iTunes USA?

    Chicago, you can buy the album on the van susans website. It gets sent to your email, all I know is it's £7.49 so not sure what the exchange will be like.

    Downloaded it yesterday from the website, you get a cd through the post as well. Run's limited to 1000 by the looks of it. Really enjoying it and will try & get along to Leefest at the end of the month.

    Thanks again for all the kind words. Our debut album 'Paused in the Moment' dropped yesterday. You can get it at all the usual places.

    I believe it is available from US iTunes and Amazon as well as from our Website vansusans.com

    Thank you everybody who has spread the word. I've said it many times, but means a lot to have all your support.

    Can I get the album/singles on Vinyl ?

    Afraid not MOG. Bit pricey to get printed onto vinyl nowadays. Maybe one day...

    If you're allowed to shamelessly promote then here's my own band - the bassist and I are East Standers. And if you ever need a support act @Ollywozere... ;) (We have more than one song, obviously.)

    You probably need to play a bit louder.

    just picked up a signed copy of Paused in the Moment from the head record shop in the glades, playing it as I type.
  • BDL played a van Susan's Sony at half time at the Blackburn game, did you get your royalties ?
