Oh god, could I be lazier with the review... I had to leave it unfinished the day long ago, and since then I've forgotten it completely. Great. Maybe some day I'll get my inspiration back...
But hey, here's a chance for someone from the mighty Progarchives reviewer team to make a review of their own! Yeah, the 'folk manager contacted me a while ago and asked if you're interested in receiving a promo copy of Making Faces? Please let me know through this thread so I'll put a private message with his contact information. And he also gave me the address for the new promo pic so you could perhaps replace the old one without the violinist Charly. Here's the web version http://www.edu.stadia.fi/~0301334/circusfolk_net.jpg The print version is so hellishly huge, that maybe that one is good enough for Archives. |

That previous link seems to open the page in Finnish, here's a link straight to the English version. Still struggling with the review... Edited by Keppa4v - November 26 2007 at 06:45 |

Here you can order The Progression Bell ep and Comes to Town is also available, but only as mp3 files, since the cd pressing was sold out a year ago (I got two last copies of it for me and my girlfriend). I'll start doing my Progression Bell review now... |

I liked it ...it was sort of poetic..definitely better than the bland sh*t I would have come up with. Look forward to your reviews.. might order that album from their website... or see if they'll ship me a freebe... I'll promote myself to owner or admin for a day |

Oh, they've replaced the old one then. I think this new story is the best one I've heard, so better leave it.

Sorry I was away, but it seems you've found everything needed. Where did you find the biography text?

Great Their gigs at their best are very funny events (some say too funny) and after following them around at gigs for a year I've gotten to know the band and their manager pretty well personally, and I must say they're all wonderfully nice and warm people |

I put the link in the Eclectic team thread as well... Listened to the band, and was very positively impressed. I am quite sure they'll get added one way or the other. Oh, and I loved their bio too... Whoever says Finns have no sense of humour must be out of their minds!
