>>>LONDON LIVE ACTION>>>

Hello Hello

This week, for you pleasure and delight, Miss Pain will be causing a scene in North London, dressed in their finest and pushing their faithful noise machines to their upper limits.

THU 01 DEC - LONDON

Gasp as they shake and scream. Feel giddy as they pout and preen. And marvel as the Pains crash their way through a full-on assault of twisted electro-shock pop and ultra-vivid visual stimuli.

But it’s not just a chance to top up yr tinnitus, cos we’ll have a feast of brand new merchandise on sale, including Handbags, Ties, Keyrings, Badges, as well as our two singles, of which the first one is very very nearly sold-out (could be your last chance!).

oh, and before we go, don’t forget:

FRI 09 DEC - BRIGHTON
Welcome to Tinseltown
Miss Pain + The Schla La Las
The Freebutt, Phoenix Place, Brighton

Greetings Pain-fans,
Following our jaunt Up North, we three Pains are back home and play live in London and Brighton at the beginning of next month (look to the right for details).

Meanwhile, this weekend, for your listening pleasure:

The Penthouse, upstairs at The Freebutt, Brighton
doors: 8pm - late

Once again, we take over The Penthouse, for a refreshing blast of synth pop, French pop and electro pop for all you robots, bar-flies, Francophiles, and everyone else. From Serge Gainsbourg to Giorgio Moroder, France Gall to Fad Gadget, Jacques Dutronc to John Foxx, Francoise Hardy to The Human League, via Stereo Total, Miss Kittin, Cobra Killer, Ye-Ye, Nouveau Rock’n’Roll Francais, etcetera.

Plus! The usual excess of decorations and embellishments to come crashing down around you, with special guest confidante The Mac Classic, and the ever-glamorous Mlle Sell providing translation services and secretarial support.

O T H E R N E W S....................................................

Yes, we have succumbed to the latest fads and trends and are now collecting friends on MySpace. Go to www.myspace.com/vivamisspain, and you can see our dashing ‘Caught My Eye’ video, steal our friends, and even add us as a friend. (We’ll be adding more stuff soon, so keep an eye out.)


R O A D T R I P

We’d like to thank everyone who came to see us make a spectacle of ourselves in Winchester and Manchester. Much fun was had, and we ran ourselves ragged... There are selected photos of the latter here: T R E V I R A (thanx Sarah N).

Apologies to all who turned up to see some Pain action in Leeds – owing to matters completely out of our control, and some exceptionally useless/unhelpful persons, the gig didn’t go ahead. This was despite us having driven 250 miles, having all the equipment we needed, and having a professional sound-engineer on-hand. Bunch of C***S, pretty much sums that one up. And we don’t use the C word lightly!!

We’ll no doubt post the full story on this here Blog when we have the time.

D E C E M B E R L I V E A C T I O N

We have 2 tantalisng shows on the cards for December, take a look at the top of the column to the right of this message, and then go scrawl them in yr diaries.

These will be our last 2 shows of the year, and there’s nowt booked until March next year at the moment, so don’t miss ‘em.

Love + Pain
Sarah, Verity & Dom
