GABBA
are playing London on December 28th, with some S*M*A*S*Hing Open Mouthed
Benders. Sounds wild, so come join
the party - you might pull a cracker.
In other news,
GABBA were the victims of a recent internet slur
that accused certain parts of their biography to be "lies".
The band would like to state categorically that whatever Stig wrote
about them is true, and no further legal investigation will be neccessary.

There are full
length tracks for you on the GABBA myspace
page. You can download both Hej Ho Disco & The
Pinhead Takes It All, to enjoy in the comfort of your own
basement whenever you like.
The band are working
in isolation in Osaka, under Stig's super vision and, indeed, his
supervision. To clear up a few rumours: 1) Stig has not married Anneky.
2) Bjoey has not married Stig OR Anneky 3) Bee Bee took part in a
medical drug trial, and his head swelled to 3 times its normal size.
It was a great success, and he can't wait for the next one.

There's a feature
in the new issue of France's premier muso mag "Guitar Part",
all about your heroes. If you can read it, voulez vous send us a translation?
GABBA don't understand French letters.
You can now buy
the single "Gabba Gabba" on i-Tunes.

GABBA
are back, and coming to a stage near you soon. The band have been
in enforced hibernation at Osaka Rock n'
Roll High School,
as mad genius Stig Honda has tortured and teased
his rejuvenated charges into shape for world domination.
Matters were complicated
by Anneky's apparent retirement from music, following
the dismal failure of her solo album and unexpected marriage to Uber-Fan,
Benjii
Svensson. Regrettably, Benjii was killed in a chainsaw accident
while working in the basement at the couple's Swedish farmhouse, and
Anneky has now returned to the fold to seek solace in Discopunk.
Bee Bee
has been using his time to work on his solo rap project, under the
alias Bee Bee Queen, but he proved to be an even worse rapper than
people imagined, and he has also returned to be brainwashed and reprogrammed
by Stig.
Geeky
& Bjoey haven't spoken for almost 5 years. They
find they work better together this way, while Abby has been reigned
in and saddled with the job of beating like never before.
All of these GABBA
escapades have been chronicalled in a movie, "End of the Sventury",
which is currently being viewed by lawyers who are witholding its
release
due to "serious copyright issues". Amen.
The GABBA
film that did hit the cinemas was a smash hit success though. "Gimme
Gimme Gimme Shock Treatment At Midnite" won a series
of awards, including Best Short Film at London's prestigious Portobello
Film Festival.
Furthermore, the
band began work on the hotly awaited follow up to "Leave
Stockholm", with legendary knob twiddler Phil
Smegma, but the project is currently on ice as Smegma is
in jail on charges relating to a semi-automatic handgun, some rodents
and a large bag of cocaine.
Stig refused to pay the bail money.

a fine line between stupid and clever..." - Stig Honda
