Welcome to 2005

Welcome to the New Year!
The band have been busy rehearsing a longer set ( with a few new songs and some surprises!) - in preparation for upcoming gigs around the NorthWest ( see News page for details of the gigs)

Anthony (keys) has also been trying on his new stage gear ( watch out ladies !)
Dave (bass) has made a few improvements to the website - including some new song downloads, and putting each band member's bigraphy online. You can now see what books Michelle (vox) reads on Desert Islands, and what inspires Stu (drums) to eat so many Wotsits.

The website is now getting hits from around the wrld - as a result of Dave and Steve's (gtr) efforts to get Joycopter well known on worldwide band sites. There is also a possibility of some radio play upcoming on several US internet radio stations.

Stev and Michelle woudl also like to recommend that anyone who is anyone get down to see The Mars Volta at the Manchester Academy on March 12th . Stu recommends Rammstein at the MEN this weekend - but I fear this is already sold out.

Anthony is now also giving piano/keyboard lessons to several folk - having recently passed his Grade 8 exams - nice to see the torch being passed on dude !

We hope to see a few familiar faces (and some new ones) at the Crewe Limelight on Tues Feb 22nd !!!
