Pillow News... Thai Compilation...

haven't really done much lately... Everyone's been very Busy lately but we do have a gig this coming Friday, November 14 at Route 196 and we also might play at Buzz Night on the 21st of Novenber at Mayrics...

By the way, we've recently been ask to sumbit a song for a Thai Compilation called "Peacefully Yours"...

Peacefully Yours is a Bangkok-based group of young Thais who are concerned about the violence situation somewhere in the Deep South of Thailand which has erupted and been growing consistently for almost 5 years, having killed about 3,000 people and injured about 4,000 people.
(Info from Deep South Watch: http://www. deepsouthwatch. org/, more info from http://en. wikipedia. org/wiki/South_Thailand_insurgency)

To help relieve the casualty, our group has come up with a fund-raising project aiming to donate money to an official fund for victims and officials who are installed in the area.

The fund-raising project is deliberately called “Peacefully Yours”. As the name suggests, we do it purely for “Peace” and we are neither in preference of violence nor battle. This may sound a little bit cliché and we know we are not Lennon and Yoko though some of us believe they are musicians and are based in so-called indie bands here, but we do hope to contribute as much as we can.

Our plan is to make compilation albums of our songs (and maybe one of your songs) and sell it for 50 baht a copy at the 7th Fat Festival, Thailand’s biggest independent music festival to be held on November 8-9. We’ve planned to make two compilation albums: one for indie-pop lovers and another for the post-rock heads.


The song we submitted is called "Beneath The Glare" and it's a very old recording of the song... it was included in the "Wating For YOur Words" Mini LP which was supposed to come out on Shelflife Records almost 6 years ago...
