Podcast?
May 26th
It seems that you can’t move anywhere without some sort of digital media reaching out to you. Whether it’s an iPhone App for this, a Blackberry for that, or ‘Available on iTunes’ at the bottom of an advert, or a podcast of stuff you’ve already heard on the radio. At Rumour towers, we’re interested in digital media (you can buy our album in our shop) and we’re interested in delivering new digital stuff to you lot: our loving fans.
We’ve never tried a podcast before, but it can’t be that hard: there are millions of them on iTunes! And you can’t get enough of photographs.
Hopefully we’ll be making a quick podcast for you with some upcoming gig details, some previews of upcoming covers and some interesting (or not) facts about us. We’re setting up the recording stuff at the moment, so keep em peeled.
I’ll be adding more photos soon, too. (Once I’ve worked it out…)
There. The Rumour: Digital…. Coming soon (.com)
Tonight we sing!
May 9th
Just as a quick update – we’re playing tonight in Stafford. It’s a Worship event, and we’re bringing along a mix of old favourites and some fresh, new songs to get you in the Worshipping mode.
We’ve been to Stafford before, so we’re looking forward to seeing if you’re still as rowdy as you were last time!
If you can make it, it’d be great to see you!
The Rumour
Is this Josh Hewitson?
Apr 27th
In short, no, it’s not Josh – it’s a kid from the new Santander advert. I took the photo of my TV, but it looks so much like Josh, I got a little bit scared.
Anyway – more pressing news… Today is Josh’s 21st Birthday!
Josh started out as a shy, retiring guitarist with little more on his mind than Van Halen. After years of nurturing him, educating his tastes with more varied and eclectic styles of music, he still has little more in his mind than Van Halen, but this time there’s a few other legendary guitarists in there too. His style has changed over the years, becoming more sensitive with his playing, but he’s still all about the guitar.
There’s not much to add about our guitarist other than to say that he’s a great guy, if a little shy at times, he’s a great musician and great fun to have around! Enough gushing!
All the best mate! See you in the pub tomorrow.
Fun with The Rumour
Apr 15th
After our last gig, we’ve sat in the Wheatsheaf and thought that we need to cover some new songs. We’ve got a few songs in our repertoire that are a bit old now, so we could do with spring cleaning our setlist.
This is where you folks come in.
What song keeps you dancing all night? What’s your ‘oh, go on then, I’ll have a dance’ song? Let us know in the comments, by email or on Facebook. We’re eager to get out there and do some more gigging, so we’d like to get the song choice right!
