I need to get that! I presume they're just gonna go back to Arctics and The Rascals now! I'm sure they'll be some kind of reunion in some way like Alex or Miles coming on during Arctics or Rascals gigs.

Well I think they're going to have to "give it a break" for the time being. 2009 and 2010 will mainly be full of tours and festivals for the Arctic Monkeys, and The Rascals 2nd album will be much bigger I reckon. ^_^
