Excellent! Streamed here: http://www.mtv2.com/#discover_download (click on artists, then Monkeys, then scroll down to No Buses (Live). Or, if you want to save it (well worth it ): http://www.megaupload.com/?d=VY2LBJZC Enjoy!

Tell the radio station they are talking doodah. O'Malley injured himself (broke his arm) a week or so before the Monkeys asked him to help out. He originally turned them down thinking he would struggle but later decided to give it a go. He's now playing with the arm (the one he plucks with!) heavily strapped. He was apparently thrown over a neighbour's hedge by the Dodgems roadie in a spot of high jinks (I couldn't confirm alcohol was involved!!).

Probably the definitive guide: http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A769250

I have it on (fairly) good authority that it sold more than the combined total of both the previous number 1 Monkeys singles combined in its first week. Which would put the figure at over 75,000, I believe....

Woahhh! Video recording (not much at the moment but will be added to over the next few days) of the gig here: http://vice.typepad.com/vice_magazine/2006...arctic_m_1.html Peaches Geldof and Samantha Morton in attendance??

...to bed in the new bassist. Top secret gig at The Old Blue Last Pub, with 120 pople watching! NME would appear to have been 'in' on it: http://www.nme.com/news/arctic-monkeys/23164

Any more news on Little Man Tate's single, please? It was number 28 on Tuesday. TIA!

Interesting..... http://www.gigwise.com/news.asp?contentid=17369 Arctic Monkeys' Debut Film Annouced Directed by their best mate.... The Arctic Monkeys’ debut feature film has been announced at the Cannes Film Festival. Peter Carlton, head of FilmFour Lab, announced at the film festival yesterday the band will be making a feature directed by their close friend and Reverend And The Makers frontman Jon McClure.
