The Positions News(RSS)Tuesday, January 30, 2007 Yes, we've neglected you, but it was for damn good reasons. We were all quiet, see. Nothing to tell you, really. We were on a bit of a hiatus. But we're cooking again. We have new songs, we have some shows. This we promise: stay tuned, because there's stuff coming up. Tuesday, September 12, 2006 Set off the alarms: Bliss! is out in the UK, Ireland and other countries to be named later, and you can go to the yesboyicecream store and spend the extra Euros you've been saving up from the couch cushions for just this very day. Oh, joy! Wednesday, August 23, 2006 It's official: our first album has a second release date. Bliss! will be available in the UK and Ireland on 11th September. Did you notice how we said "11th September" instead of "September 11th"? That's how they do it over there, we're told, and we don't want anyone getting confused. Monday, July 24, 2006 If you've found yourself in Ireland for whatever reason (maybe you live there) in the past few weeks, and you happen to turn on the radio for some reason, you may have been lucky enough to hear The Positions on Irish radio. We've apparently made the radio over there, and have made such an impression that Today FM, in a fit of excitement, called us one of "the best new Irish artists", in spite of the slight technicality that we're not Irish. Is this the beginning of The American Invasion sound in Ireland? Probably not. It's still fun, though. Tuesday, June 27, 2006 You Americans have been spoiled over the last year or so, what with your unlimited access to our debut album Bliss! But did it every occur to you that there were those less fortunate who had to buy the album as an import? Who only dreamed of one day being able to walk into a store and buy the CD? Well, a little more of the world got a little more fortunate, as we can officially announce that Ireland's yesboyicecream records, the kind and clever folks behind the June Brides tribute album that we're on, will be releasing Bliss! in Ireland and the UK and probably some other places that we dream of visiting but millions call home. The record has been remastered, and has been given a new running order, so you completists out there have a reason to take a trip to Dublin just to buy it. The release date isn't set, but we're assured that it's any day now. Stay posted. Tuesday, May 23, 2006 No, that new entry on the shows page isn't just an elaborate typo. It's true that we're not only playing a show, it's not only at the Black Cat, it's not only with the amazing Page France, but it's on JUNE FIFTEENTH!! Wait, that last part isn't the exciting part. Unless June 15th is your birthday. In which case, happy birthday. News is actually starting to happen again in Positions land, so stay tuned for more announcements of shows and such, because we're working on some more exciting stuff. Saturday, March 25, 2006 ______ be praised! The show drought is over! We'll be playing the Big Yawn night at DC9 on Sunday, April 9th, which is convenient, since you can cross-reference the club name (DC9) with the street it's on (9th) with the day it's on (the 9th). So you can't use "I forgot" as an excuse for not coming. You'll have to work a little harder at it this time. Also out as a viable excuse for not making it is, "because it's too late and I have to work the next day." We'll be on first, around 8:30 or 9:00, so it's an easy way to rock out AND still keep a responsible bedtime. For those of you inclined to give the finger to responsible bedtimes...well, first, we salute you, rocker. But second, that just means you can stick around for the rest of the fest. And there's rumors that they sell alcoholic drinks at this place... Anyway, looks like you're out of excuses, Chester.
