Barely Worth A Mention

The shortest of the news.

The Teenagers' drummer appears to have vanished, leaving the band unable to support The Wombats in Edinburgh, Sheffield and Inverness, but they are hoping to sort something out for this weekend's festivals, including the Great Escape in Brighton.

Copy Cats have a new song up at Myspace.com/wearecopycats called 'But I Wanted To'. It reminds me slightly of The Horrors, but is actually pretty good.

Rolo Tomassi also have a new song up at Myspace.com/rolotomassi called 'Beatrotter', which was released earlier this year on 7" with 'Digital History'. It's pretty damn screamy and short, but sounds a lot of fun.

The Courteeners want you to send any photos you've got from the tour to Thecourteeners.com, as they're thinking of putting some of them on the back of the new single - the B-sides for which are all covers, in an attempt to give you an insight into what they're into and contradict those who have judged them.
