Following the endless pop splendour of their debut She Like Electric (on Pattern 25), Smoosh have been chosen to play around the UK in support of The Go! Team's largest shows to date.
Having just finished their second LP in the States, the band are looking to the future with this second trip to the UK after their three date jaunt in November of last year.

DiScuss: Are you going? Will the support outstrip the headline's occasionally underwhelming live show? Is this the best Birthday present Wishpig could have hoped for?

Support Act in
better than headliner shock!
not better,
but still super-ace.
I am so
utterly utterly there.
.
there arent the nazi ones are they
I've got
tickets for this. I don't much care for Smoosh though. Oh well.
yes
DiS loves racism and prejudice, as do The Go! Team, their management, their tour agency, the venues and society.
Of course they're not.
:P
both times i've seen the go! team
i've wanted to scratch my own ears off.
but smoosh! argh! i'll have to go now..
I love this band
very tempted to go If I can make it down. I don't know KoKo. Any good?
Smmosh aren't great
from what I'v heard. Still, for their age their wicked. I suppose.
Smush
And even better for their shoe sizeFACT.
Smoosh...
...are ok, but if you want to hear something thats far fucking better and of the same style check out this band called charlie brown.

I might have to hear some smoosh
I love the Go! Team though.
I'm trying to talk a friend into going, but he's shallow, and a pre-teen band might creep him out.
Smoosh
Are overrated, but still very good.
I'm going to have to make the effort to go to this now, even though ticket prices are EXPENSIVE
Smoosh
Is amazing.
Best. Album. Of. Last. Year.*
* - apart from about 6 others.
I listened on the plug above's myspace
and it was quite good. try it
The Go! Team
Are getting better live
FACT
or...
MATTER OF OPINION
They are though. Everytime I see them they get better and Ninja's performance gets more and more impressive
their picture
scares me. I was hoping Kid Carpet would tour with them though
Are you people seriously suggesting that
Smoosh are better than The Go! Team?
*mind boggles*
But yeah, I shall be at the Soton date nevertheless...
No....
You are thinking of Prussian Blue
HAHA
Oh god, that'd be a horrible confusion to make.
Yes, I would say that...
but, both are amazing live...I saw them in the states when they toured together a couple months ago...simply amazing...I jealous, I can't go...
I may now
Have to go to the soton date....
yknow what introduced me to smoosh?
Dis Radio
uea box office says the grates are supporting
does that mean that there will be two support bands and that i will only hear 3 or 4 smoosh songs?
smoosh
smooshare gonna be great, watch out for the people with dark sunglasses at the back and big overcoats, who always have their hands in their pockets.
Dirty Buggers
Yeaaaah!
Smoosh in Cardiff?
Yeeeey!
If Smoosh are supporting,
Why do Plug think it's the grates?
