Hey gang, here's the new poster for our tour with the Pony Up girls in June. We can't wait. Check it:

You'll notice to the new twitter widget on the side bar of our website. If you're not already, friend us up on twitter at: http://www.twitter.com/thedevotedfew we tweet all day! We'll see you in June!

Something like 2000 bands entered the uncharTED competition this year. We've made it through to the final 50. The prize for the winning band is a spot at Splendour in the Grass! Needless to say we'd love to be on the Splendour bill & that's why we need you to vote, vote & vote some more.

But what's in it for you? Two things - the warm, fuzzy feeling of satisfaction you get when you do a fellow human being a solid & the chance of winning double passes to Splendour!

Head to the uncharTED website, register to vote, go to our profile which is HERE and cast your vote.

If you are so inclined and have a lot of time up your sleeve you can vote once every hour!!

Thanks!
TDF

Many thanks to our good friend Craig Schuftan for inviting us to play at his book launch last night at The Hoey! And thanks to all those people who braved the torrential rain outside and the oppressive heat inside to be at the show.

For those of you who weren't there we knocked out versions of 'How Soon Is Now' by The Smiths (apologies to the purists for cutting it down to four minutes from the original six or so), Weezer's 'Why Bother?', The Cure's 'The Hanging Garden' and 'Hounds Of Love' by Kate Bush. Sarah Blasko provided a gorgeously fractured version of Bowie's 'Heroes' as well as a track from her new album.

There are a few photos and a bit of a run down of the evening over here! And some more pics over at the triple j website

Craig's book, 'Hey Nietzsche! Leave Them Kids Alone!' is out now!

For those not in Sydney, check out our first ever cover shot!

The pic of us was taken by Maja Baska. Here's the Drum Media article in PDF format:

Thanks to everyone who came along to see us over the weekend in Byron, Brissy & Toowoomba. We had a ball, particularly in Brisbane where The Troubadour SOLD OUT!!

Many thanks to The Middle East & Drawn From Bees for being wonderful bands and lovely people to boot! It was a pleasure.

This week we do a load of washing and pack the van again for shows in Adelaide, Melbourne & Ballarat. Then next week we hit up Newcastle and Sydney. Tickets are now on sale for Adelaide, Melbourne & Sydney shows. The links are over there on the right >>>
