Amsterdam have now re-started work on the new album down in Somerset. The end of the recording finally finally in sight, the whole album should be finished within the next two weeks.

Don’t forget Paulie plays a solo set at Liverpool’s uber-trendy 3345 bar on Thursday 19 April. Ian plays with old friend Miles Hunt from the Wonder Stuff the following night at the Liverpool Barfly. Ian will be joined by some special guests because “I hate doing these things alone!”.

The week after (Friday 26) Ian goes to Spain to play at the Black and White bar in Nerja, Costa del sol with Ian McNabb for anyone who wishes to make the trip.
