- Holiday comes from the last solo album ‘Yoni’, which is already available at all emporiums supporting good taste and valiant effort.
- How Legends Love is exclusive to this release, that means it’s not available anywhere else, nor will it be….oh no….get it here…..or get it no-where….unless you have a friend you can tape it from….which I really don’t mind…..to be honest.
DON’T FORGET THAT FOR THE WEEK THAT IS THE PERINEUM OF YULETIDE (or the Taint of the New Year) THERE WILL BE ONLY ONE SINGLE WORTH BUYING…
And it will be this one!
Please pass this message on to another message board, gossip forum, website or internet outlet of your choice, and when you do will you please ask them to pass it on to another message board, gossip forum, website or internet outlet of their choice, and when they do….well, you get the picture.

Ginger – Acoustic in New York
By Kris | October 28, 2007
Yes, that’s right, I’m playing an acoustic show in New York!
The Knitting Factory. Thursday November 1st, 9:00pm.
I’m so excited. I mean a guy’s senses can be knocked about playing Wildhearts shows at nose-bleed volumes for anything up to 2 hours a night, without breaks for air. And while being quite the popular evening out, sometimes… well, you just wanna play something a bit more subtle.
And have a little chat.
And play some non-Wildhearts stuff.
And I ain’t done one of these for a while. I seem to remember really enjoying playing acoustic shows.
Like I said….excited.
So, if you’re in the area why not come along? It’ll be fun. And you’ll be able to hear the next day.

Wildhearts – Brooklyn 19th Oct – Change of Venue
By Kris | October 13, 2007
The Wildhearts gig at the Hook in Brooklyn on Friday 19th October has had to be moved to another venue (Club Exit) due to the original venue (The Hook) unexpectedly closing. The full info from the promoter is below:
Hey guys – this is for everybody who bought tickets to the Wildhearts gig at the Hook. If you know anybody else who was planning on coming to this show, we HIGHLY recommend forwarding this along.
SO. Ha. We’re in a little bit of a tight spot. We’d booked this phenomenal show at the Hook, where we’ve held so many ridiculously awesome shows in the past, and then the Hook CLOSED. We still want to have the show, obviously, so we’ve simply moved it to Club Exit. It’s still in Brooklyn, right off the G in Greenpoint, not terribly difficult to get to and still fairly awesome. The Wildhearts are coming all the way from ENGLAND; there was no way we were cancelling this gig. We’re still bringing along all the openers – Generals & Majors, Children of the Unicorn, the Matt Truman Ego Trip, et al. We’d never let you guys down.
So let everybody you know in on this – Wildhearts at Club Exit on Friday the 19th – and then join us for a second night with Ginger and the boys aboard the Temptress on Saturday.
Address for Club Exit is
Club Exit
149 Greenpoint Ave
(between McGuinness and Manhattan Aves)
Brooklyn, NY 11222
