Fun Day 2010
Last Saturday, 17th July, we played the Sunbury Community Fun Day again like last year. It was much better this year (mainly because we’re so much better now) with a lot more people sitting around and listening as the bandstand was right next to the refreshments, so people came over to get their FREE BBQ and drinks and went “Ooh, these guys are good!” ;o)
We played various songs...

April Fool's :)
Hey, Dave here,
(If you havn’t seen the original post yet, go here.) Yes, it was all an April Fools joke. We have not had any interest from any record labels. Sorry :P
Well basically, I was bored on April 1st and hadn’t prepared any pranks for anyone when I suddenly got the inspiration for this one. I was surprised at how many people apparently fell for it…
Exhibit A:

Rather big announcement...
Hey all, Dave here,
Well, I’m just gonna go ahead and say it. We may have just been scouted by a record label. Yes.
This all has happened in the last week or so, and I’ve just recieved the go ahead to announce it to anyone who will listen. I’m still in shock myself to be honest…
Basically, I have a “contact” (okay, so it’s someone I’m a fan of who...

Here we sit… we thought we had a band practice now, okay we presumed, but we don’t.

Happy New Year
Hey y’all,
New year, just made this tumblelog (to celebrate?) and updated it with old stuff from the old blog and a video and a song :).
My new years resolution has gotta be to stop speaking on behalf of the band without the guys say so. ;o)
Will from now on update you on everything from here, which’ll undoubtebly wind up on our Facebook page. We may at some point get a Twitter...

It’s been a while since the gig now but we’re still recovering.
We now have a full blown website instead of just this blog: http://origamitsunami.moonfruit.com/ Be Sure to check it out. It has a couple of videos from the gig, among lots of other content.
So we’re still to properly “debrief” on the gig, how it went etc., so once we do the website and this blog...

It's getting closer...
Hey Peeps
Gig update: Saturday 27th June 2009!! Remember it!! We have begun rehearsal for this historic date. Sadly, Dan will be unable to do the gig, but never fear; we shall still have a drummer!! The person who approached us to do the gig is also a very accomplished musician, especially at the drums! So, for the Fun Day we shall be playing with Mr. Chris Hill on drums. So once again...

The day when we explode is drawing close…
Hey Peeps,
Gig update: Confirmed = Origami Tsunami will be playing a set at The Community Fun Day in Sunbury on 27th June @ Springfield Primary School. More details may follow, may not. It is unclear yet as to whether or not Danielle will be playing with us on the day but we do have a guest drummer lined up and Danielle’s approval to go ahead if she can’t make it.
