Chalets news-o-rama

Irish pop quintet The Chalets have exciting news and we'd like to share it with you!

Good thing about The Chalets

Their debut album Check In is a delicious slice of synth-pop fun that is an essential listen if you're looking to dance or smile.

Bad thing about The Chalets

Not nearly enough people have realised the excellence of said band and they eclipse 99% of chart-hugging pop crud.

Good thing about The Chalets

The band have announced a new single 'Theme from Chalets', which will be released on 13th March through Setanta, home to fellow Irish group Turn.

Bad thing about The Chalets

Singer Paula is now engaged to Eddie 'Art Brut' Argos, meaning we're all out of luck and will have to find another indie-pop princess.

Hoorah.

I've already planned a chalet-o-rama for the 8th.

The Chalets are brilliant

live and on record.

I may go to the bath gig, though I did see them in Bristol aonly a few months ago.

Was going to ask if they're worth

My pennies at Fuzz. No need now...

just cos she's engaged

doesn't mean you can't sleep with her.

REALLY?

that's a match made in heaven mind

They can spend countless hours trying to out-irony each other.

Welwyn Garden City...

... isn't that bad. The venue will be nicer when it's been done up however. With any luck, anyway.

good things about this tour

the hot puppies are supporting.

so I will be there in manchester.

THANKS COLIN

bedford

Too right...

My housemate

Club NME

Is at the academy now, so whats all this beirkeller nonsense?

It is

At the Bierkeller. The gig. Not Club NME. Hot Puppies are good fun, looking forwards to seeing thems.

klaire = LOL

i'd always thought of them as peepee and pony, but never knew which was which anyway.

Paula = Pee Pee

factoid.

Yeah,
