Video : The Athenrides

While Tim was away with BellX1 burning out buses and Vinnie was probably dancing his happy head off, the other half of Neosupervital, Jessie Loveaction and Miss K, were busy here at home creating The Athenrides especially for the Darklight Festival.

Three severely misguided Irish girls fancy themselves as the Next Big Thing when an ambitious manager lends a helpful, if wandering, hand in turning them into the all-singing, all dancing girl band, THE ATHENRIDES. With more delusions of grandeur than actual talent, they’ve got their eyes on Eurovision. It’s Spinal Tap meets You’re A Star!

Oooh. Europe’s gonna love them. THIS is what Brussels meant when they said singing Irish birds. Get in and download their free tune Feelin’ Ridey from MySpace NOW!

    although i admit comedy’s never been my sindig, but whenever i see irish “comedy” I cringe - for the most part it is pretty awful and an embarrassing reflection of what producers consider “funny”

    just because something has no budget does not mean it has to be crap
