The Stand update 2 (Come on City tonight!!!)

Tue Oct 19, 2010 8:33 am

Right...

We've done a few grand in pre-orders on CD's....which is apparently amazing for a song not actually out until the 25th.. (don't know on Downloads or HMV figures...they may be more...but I'd say around the same)...but we'll do 1,000 in a night @ HMV on Thurs 28th in Cardiff. (Two players coming along with the band.. :ayatollah: )

We're still top of the pre-orders charts as it seems City fans are buying them at a regular pace.

It's needs just to keep this going....if we keep doing a grand a day until the 30th (with big surges on in store appearances we'll do well but if we really wanna take on the big boys we have to really get people ordering)..

It's physically in Supermarkets across South Wales from Monday the 25th...Asda and Tesco's..

So it's up to us! I'm back in there today as we're picking up press now (Wales obviously and Guardian today)...

I REALLY hope City win tonight!!! :D

Let's keep it going (I feel like a fuckin drill sergeant...sorry!! :oops: )

But I spoke to Graham Keenor (who'd just been to visit Fred's only surviving son)..and he's coming on the Thursday to HMV.
made me think...we gotta get this done! :ayatollah:

Just pre ordered mine from Amazon so come on Blooooooooobirds get your orders in. :ayatollah:

My sister in law heard the 29 second clip and she thought it was very catchy so there is real hope that this can capture the imagination and take off across the whole UK and not just South Wales. :ayatollah:

Will you be selling the CD at the launch nights?

Re: The Stand update 2 (Come on City tonight!!!)

No, as they won't count for chart positions but they'll be in supermarkets across South Wale butty.

Good lad Johnny...it's always been about the cause... :ayatollah:

What time do you plan to be in HMV with the City players? Once you know make it widely available. This is half term so turnout could be huge. A massive boost for a worthy cause.

Keep up the great work Jonny, I hope people recognise what you and the Band are doing in respect of time, effort, and publicity for the cause....
