NEWS : AUGUST 2001


KICK OUT THE JAMS MOTHERFUCKERS!

It's been a quiet year so far, by our standards. We've played more shows in London and Dublin than in our "home territory" (celebrating our 100th gig on the way) - We promise you though - we've been busy - and our plans are about to come to fruuition.

The new Pay*Ola C.D - "THE FELIX E.P" - will be released in mid-August - and wwe've lined up a great night to launch it :

SATURDAY 11TH AUGUST : EMPIRE MUSIC HALL, BELFAST

support comes from "Blind Eye View" - as well as guest artists, and a Rock/Alternative D.J.

The vibe is Party of the Year - Put this date in your diary now! We've started lining up the "FELIX CAN FLY" TOUR - some great nights are on the horizon - check the GIG GUIDE for details.

The E.P features no less than 5 tracks - led by brand new tune FELIX (which debuted in Dublin May 2001) - an upbeat, uplifting rocker in the "Keep Your Head Up" mould - with a melody and harmonies to melt your heart. Also included are : Glory On My Mind, When You Leave, What Drives You? and Let It Flow - all quality tunes, and live favorites. There are no B-Sides in Pay*Ola's universe - just great songs. This C.D has more hooks than a fishing tackle shop! As well as at gigs, this C.D will be available at selected stores throughout Ireland, and through the website - we'll keep you informed.

We apologise for the delay in releasing our second E.P - it will not happen again - we've alreaady started recording the third!

Another great piece of news is that we've been confirmed as performing at the BIG BUZZ COORS LIGHT IRISH ENTERTAINMENT AWARDS, in the Europa Hotel, Belfast - Friday 28th September. This is a huge night on the Irish entertainment calendar - and a great recognition of what Pay*Ola have achieved so far. Let's get back on the telly!

You can vote for Pay*Ola in the Best New Band category at : www.bigbuzzireland.com - it's the first voting category - so itt couldn't be easier! Hopefully this will be the first of many awards ceremonies for the band - there's free booze for a start......

You will also notice that we've been upgrading the Website recently - and we now have an EZ-board. Get yourself registered, and join in the chat! All members of Pay*Ola will visit the board regularly - so this is the place to ask questions, make suggestions and discuss all things Pay*Ola - and just about anything else you fancyy.

It's all coming together nicely... See you soon... Philip, Nicky, James and Nick
