Fight Like Apes Announce UK Tour

Fight Like Apes have rescheduled their upcoming Irish dates in order to accompany The TingTings on their autumn tour of the United (Ape) Kingdom. Though the album launch of Fight Like Apes and the Mystery of the Golden Medallion <see the album artwork by Loreana Rushe> is still set for 26 September in Whelans, other performances will now take place as follows:

Sun 12th October Cork Cyprus Avenue
Mon 13th October Galway Roisin Dubh
Tue 14th October Limerick Dolans Warehouse
Fri 17th October Mullingar The Stables
Sun 19th October Dundalk Spirit Store

The reason behind this is apparent due to the Ting Tings dates which cover major venues in England, Scotland and Wales.  Hit ‘read the rest of this entry‘ or the band’s MySpace to find out more.

FLA NMA

I had a shoot with the guys on Tuesday morning and we originally planned a tour of our own: round Dublin in an open-topped bus! Alas, the weather conspired and instead we hit Sub City comic book store on Exchequer Street instead. They’re a great bunch to work with and I hardly had to tell them to do anything. Bring on the hair at Meeting House Square!*
