I'm so glad our first full-length CD is finally ready! It is called "time ticks by and there you are" and will be presented on the 19th of December 2002, in the club the B72 in Vienna. We currently don't have a tour schedule for after the CD release - except for a women only show at the FZ-bar in Vienna on New Year's Eve. (We are all pretty busy doing university exams and stuff nowadays but hopefully this will be over soon and we can go on a small tour in spring- we'll keep you updated on that.

Updates

In the beginning of May we supported Le Tigre at their two gigs in Austria. For me, this (to open for Le Tigre) was one of the greatest things ever, because I have like Le Tigre so much and I'm really amazed by the way they manage to bring together both feminist theory & practice. It was especially their Vienna show that rocked and I think this and after Ladyfest 2000 were the only occasions I could tell even a week later who had been at the Le Tigre concerts just by how people walked around smiling but with their fists clenched.

After these great experiences we had to deal with some really annoying stuff around our new recording. Paper stress.

But, by the end of June we were happy again and ready for our "big and glamorous tour of Germany"- no, just kidding. We actually had to ride the train to Hamburg to perform at "come queer festival" at the Rote Flora as part of the Queerstreetdays. However, the fucking train ride (I think it was something like 14 hours with hoards of totally annoying boy scouts) was really worth it! We met a lot of great new people as well as ran into some old friends and Hamburg is just a great city (well, to be honest we've only been to St. Pauli- FC St. Pauli rules!). And to be part of an event like the Queerstreetdays is amazing anyway...

In the middle of July we went to Nurnberg for part two of our "big tour". Evi, part of the Flamingo Massacres, one of my favorite bands that, unfortunately, split up last summer, invited us to perform at the Pop!Harbor Festival. We had so much fun there and it was great meeting Evi and Lari again (I hope that they will soon be playing music together again!)

Then there was another truly fucked up thing: Katrin left the band. The rest of us gathered together and after long discussions, we decided not to give up but go to the studio again. Well...I guess that's were I started....
