Sorry, I'm just proud. Have to post this:D

The La La Lies:

Last weekend we played at a venue in Amsterdam and an A&R manager of Roadrunner Records (Kiss, Parlor Mob, ...) was checking out a band. We played next and he was still around. He liked us better than the band he came for and now he's trying to get us to support USA band Parlor Mob and he wants to talk about a record deal:)

A day before I was contacted by my favourite Dutch venue (Vera) which wants us to play there.

Today we got a phonecall from a Dutch TV show called De Wereld Draait Door. Primetime and I believe the only Dutch tv show at the moment with live music, but eacht artist (one per evening) only plays 60 seconds. It's watched by milllions of Dutch people and people still talk to me about the time I was on (see the 'impact of TV' thread). They maybe want us to play, but we had to answer some questions first. I'll keep ya posted, but I'm excited!!

Geniaal stoer, Chris! Eummm verkeerde forum....

What a great oppurtunities Chris. You deserved it. " De werled draait door" that show is one of the most watch tv shows I believe. And roadrunner record sthat's not just a avarage DIY label. Things are looking greatly positive.

Will you call yourself Doug Stryker once you're famous?!!!

Stikk post here?

Remember us?

What has Loes to say about all this?

It won't be long and the reporters will have d(o)ug up what you did with Frâulein Rommel: "Lalalies Bassist mercilessly di-di-ditched American fiancee at tje advent of szartdom."

I knew Chris P when he wasn't famous yet.

Congrats!  Absolutely no need to apologize  - you've earned it!

+1 on the Doug Stryker alter ego - it'll fit in well when the paparazi dig up the Fraulien story ;D

Thanks guys!

Of course nothing is sure yet. We haven't signed anything and you never know if we both agree with the same deal. The same with TV. They called us with some questions, we answered them and know we have to wait... But it's already nice people are this positive! I hope to know more soon!

I'll think about the Doug Stryker name;)

But now the big isse. If TV happens: T-Bird? Ricky 4005? Buzzard? Just a P?
