we've sort of recorded most of the new record... only problem being that some of the singing isn't done and arron's gone back to canada for a bit. this also means live shows are a bit hard right now. thanks to everyone who came to our last show at spike island - it was fun! watch this space for news on the album - we're very excied by it!!

while it might seem we've being doing nothing, we've actually been quite busy for us. we have about 20 songs we're busy trying to record. these are a bit different to previous things i hope, a bit more ambitious, although probably still as cronky. me and aaron have been joined by nat, steve and liam for a lot of these and we've tried recording outside as well as in - wild!! also the long un-released album "these are our numbers" might actually come out, although me and aaron are more focused on our new recordings at the moment... possibly the new record will be called "a little slow, a little late" which is generally a good description of our band. we might als change our name - any suggestions???
oh, and come and see us support peter and the wolf at the cube on the 20th september!!

aaron and i have been hard at work on this exhbition of drawings collages and photographs. it's at the here gallery in bristol and the opening will be the first time i know i have no collar have played in 19 months!!!! we'll probably be pretty shoddy, but you all should come anyway! it's this friday (6th april) and the gallery opens at 7.30pm. see you there!

well, aaron is back. he's sitting here next to me typing stuff. our album will now hopefully be released before the year is out. time is relative.
me and aaron have an art exhibition at the here shop next april of drawings paintings and collages. at the moment it's called "summers to summers". while aaron was away, he started a website of his drawings - have a look!
we want to play some shows, so let us know if you have any coming up. we're currently trying out new songs - aaron wrote some good stuff in canada!
see you soon dudes.
3rd august 2006 -
wow, it's been nearly a year since this was updated, and in all that time, NOTHING has happened IKIHNC-wise!! oh, except we have a myspace account - come and be our friend!
where's aaron? until he comes back from canada we can't play or release our album. in fact, the only place you can hear our new album (new as in nearly a year old but unreleased) is on the jukebox in cafe kino in bristol. it's an exclusive!! maybe it should only be released in jukeboxes accross the country...? if you want it you have to buy a jukebox!! wild.
3rd september2005 -
goodbye aaron!!!!!! see you in a year!!!!!!!!!!!!!! have fun in canada!
this site will slowly grind to a halt in that time, but before it does, videos and album details and photos will be uploaded, so check back soon!!!

thanks to everyone who came to see us play our last two shows for a year..... they were both great!! the show at the cube for the here shop party was really great because of aarons drawings that he'd done (pictured above) that fitted our music perfectly.... hopefully we'll upload some soon onto the site and will try and release a dvd with them and our last live show on which was the following night.....
we played at the here shop which is where we played our first show nearly two years ago. lots of our friends came which was great, and joff from bucky djed and drew pictures, while fránçois and roxanne - the early years also played. it felt like a really special night and we got everyone dancing, singing and making cat and radio noises. my favourite part was our last song where i shook everyone in the audience's hand while they sang our song to us. in the end me and aaron just sat down and listened...... he'll be back in a year and we can start again!
there are photos from that show in the pictures section
our record should still be coming out in the next month or so, but obviously live shows are going to be a bit of a problem....

holy crap! in just a few days we play our last show before aaron moves to canada for a year!!!! PLEASE try and come see us!!
11th august 2005 -
we have finished recording our album. it's called "these are our numbers" and has somewhere between 15 and 18 songs, depending on what we put on various compilations.... it sounds good i think, it was fun to do and nice to have fránçois taking more of a role in the playing... it should be out by september on stitch-stitch records. i've loaded some old MP3s onto the recordings page, including all of the covers cd we did that sold out ages ago, so you can hear some stuff there! while was at it i put a couple of the new songs on the site as well - these are brand new as of yesterday and so proably aren't mixed or compressed properly!! here they are -
huck

yikes - it's been ages and we've broken all our promises!! our tour of america and canada didn't happen for lots of reasons, maybe next year! we're making an effort to finish our new record and plan on recording the final things for it at the cube cinema next week with fránçois. it'll feature lots of new hits that we've been playing in recent live shows and also some newer songs that we haven't played or quite finished writing yet!
we played some fun shows with french toast, major matt mason usa, pantsuit... exciting!!
we're trying to organise a few shows around britain before the end of summer so if you can help us out then let us know - we could play in your house or in the local stadium, it's up to you!

22nd december 2004 -
sorry for not updating in a while. the tour looks like it's going to go ahead, which is pretty exciting, and we're slowly writing more songs. we recorded a couple with fránçois the other day, and hopefully we'll have something new out soon. i have a new cat called foot-foot and aaron has a new bed, so he can finally get some sleep. we hope you have a very happy christmas and we'll see you soon. rock hard.

29th september 2004 -
we've decided to try and go to america and canada next summer possibly with my two toms and fránçois. we semi-randomly picked out a route based on places where we know people and places that sound nice... here is that list -
washington, philadelphia, new york, providence, boston, somewhere nice in maine, montreal, winnipeg, toronto!!, detroit (ann arbour / royal oak / yipsilanti), chicago, olympia, portland, salem, crescent city, san francisco, oakland, LA...
if you can help us out with shows or have any better suggestions then please email us! thanks x

thanks to everyone that's been to see us at recent shows, especially at bring yourself fest, which was the most fun!! it invloved pyjamas, me running to reach a bell and fránçois playing from the rafters! there are pictures in our fancy new compartmentalised pictures section! if you have any pictures of us playing live, please email them to us! also, i've made a little section for the "i know i have no collar" in other languages, so get emailing those translations to us!! oh and come see us support jeffrey lewis in bristol on 17th september!

thanks to everyone who came to see us on the stitch-stitch tour the other week... we met some really nice people... thanks especially to the here shop, homocrime, lesbo pig, fránçois, humousexual, the blue minkies and the freebut in brighton. we then got asked to play in london again the other day supporting the unicorns. thanks to upset the rhythm for asking, and to tammy and her sister, rory, sophie, bisketti and tom for coming along and talking to us!
we've finished the "i'm missing" album and all the artwork, we just need to get it made up, so that should be available in the next couple of weeks. we have some shows coming up at the end of this month and the start of next month, but i'm not sure of the details yet, so please come back and check!
