The Bling Automata?

So we're halfway through the year, and no news yet. Anyone still betting the new album will be released this year?

If TWIS is anything to go by,it'll be released in,er,late '08

I dunno,so much old cobblers goes into the making of rock/pop records.It's pretty straightforward to record an album in a couple of days if you're at the top of your game.All the other baloney with publicity/photos/design/marketing/remixing adds a couple of months max.The rest is vanity,IMHO.OK that's my twopenny rant over.

it'd make a good album title

What would you have on the cover,Bluesy? [crazy]

Well that was sort of what made me laugh, I had this vision of a parallel artwork to the PAS stuff, only instead of a series of photos of Stina disguised as different women, it would be a series of mechanical dolls swathed in outrageous gold jewellery. I don't know why but that makes me laugh out loud.

Thanks!! It was great,the kids excelled themselves.It's a fantastic event,and they perform with such enthusiasm and energy,despite their 'disadvantages'.Very salutory for a performer such as myself.It's the highlight of every year ! (it also keeps me in a job for 9 months of the year

)

just a thought, but given the nature of wikipedia, anyone can enter anything (pretty much; they have instigated some checks in the meantime), so who's to say it wasn't anything more than speculation?

the IT experts here could conceivably track the URL of the person who wrote the entry (which is listed in the article history) and see what that brought to light.

now, shall i go over to wikipedia and type in that the next album's out tomorrow afternoon? [crazy] [angel]

I think it's done by people who contributes too.... somme add infos some others censor, correct. Everyone is able to do this. Like if I'm sure something is wrong in an article I just edit the page and correct it.
