DOUBLE-THREE PARTY

This news were awaited for very long time, but nothing new, really. L'Point hiatus still in process and the time is running faster and faster. Prague's venues getting bomb attack of interresting music (look at giglist below), but in my opinion is the wild & loud half-private party the best thing you could do, to make life for a while quite happier...

Question is when!?

In the best time, of course, on Friday 13th in the place where the main roads crossed in ancient time, in core of town - Ungelt. Welcome in place named CHATEAU ENFER ROUGE (check the corner of Mala Stupartska and Jakubska Street). When you get lowest point of club, you'll maybe discover SUPERDIRA. That secret place will be explored by noise till 9 P.M. CHALUHA (Bugrr/Deti Deste side project) is first on the bill. Right after that C from Tabor shows its dance-rock performance while the KVETOSLAV DOLEJSI will check late night attention. For the basic experience bring ear-plugs and sixty czech crowns in pocket. You'll see the rest...then.

Websites? Yes, please...

Hey.

We finally decided we could play one more show this year. Check our glam-pop destruction at Na Bojisti in the time of legendary Trutnov Open Air Festival on August 22nd.

No chance to catch any detailed info on trutnov.openair.cz, so you'd rather mark we will start at 9 p.m. on Second Club Stage. By the way - other comrades will be also appeared on bill - for example Albion, Anyway, Wollongong or Tri Cutory. A couple good reasons spend your time in there :).

Well, Trutnov Festival line-up is blasting (Motörhead, The Dhol Foundantion, Esgmeq), but this saturday offers something speacial. Small village Bysice (close to Melnik) would invite Silver Rocket Summer Snuffer Fest. Follow the black letters bellow:

16.00: Naquei Manou
17.00: Ememvoodoopöká
18.00: C
19.00: Wollongong
20.00: Deverova chyba
21:00: Lyssa
22.00: Esgmeq


Tschuss, Fluss sr.

Hi.

We play LIVE again! Destination - 21.5. Berlin@Magnet w/Psycho-Path, Operator (usa/i). Second one is Scott McCloud sideproject. It sounds almost like New Order, but still shows a lot of Girls Against Boys elements. Day after, we'd have BBQ at 007 Strahov in Prague. Doors 7 p.m.!!! We brought slovenian psych-rockers Psycho-Path and Indie Twins DJs. Afterparty would be pure hip-hop massacre. Let's party till sundays lunch :)

New song ...uhm became part of Mani.Fest 15 CD compilation. Other czech bands are following - Wollongong, The Airbags and Bosworth. The best track of the album? Mad X-Ray - Go Up In Smoke...

Next weekend's most recommended action - FreeDim Festival. Line-up is more than TASTY. Info service at www.freedimension.cz!

Enjoy the spring time, see you soon! J/L'Point

Dear mourners!

We're funishing the first song recorded in a three year period of silence … and it's...UHM! The track has been recorded as a gift to Saxons, so there's a good chance to find it on the Noiseworks annual compilation. Let your bells ring while this fresh spring is breezing and make your brain hooked to the name of MANI.FEST 15.

The mysterious album.

Don't look over, the magical gigs follow. LIVE GIGS!!! 23.4. Dvur Kralove (Barrakuda), 21.5. Berlin (Magnet) w/Psycho-Path (slo), Operator (us, McCloud/GVSB project), 22.5. Praha (Metropolis) w/Psycho-Path (slo), Indie Twins Djs

Hi

Parties with Sunshine and Enon were georgeous. Even reviews say thatJ Freemusic, MusicPage. Unfortunatelly, they're in czech.

Our track for "Zivel" mag/cd is delayed but L'Point remixed will appear in june issue of Zivel anyway: as 'electroclash' visionaires thanks to "Travolta".

For unpatient cd collectors - work on "SICKSTER" go on slowly (but easy) what should not influence nearest show: 13/6 Strakonice, Na Kremelce with Sidetrack and Wollongong. We hope to present new set-list that night.

If South Bohemia isn't good enough for ya, check other possibilities on www.lpoint.info

Till then we recommend FREE DIMENSION OPEN AIR (www.freedimension.cz) 30/5 - 31/5 in Tabor with for example rock'n'roll stars Anyway, Monophonic or dancie-manzie "C" and many other awesome freaks.

A show of the month will be hold next wednesday 30/4(0 advantage Borg?) in Prague's GURU club where Squall, Anyway and specially Esgmeq will introduce you to hell.

Salaam Alaykhum, Job
