Polysics coming to Bristol!!!

Very few decent bands play Bristol - it counts as being off the beaten track but the good news is the Polysics are playing the Fleece on 3 July! Bad for Bea though as she'll be in Connecticutt but she insists we go to get her a t-shirt.
They are great - if you search this blog you can watch some of their brilliant videos

Wiki on Polysics
Polysics are a Japanese new wave/synth-pop/J-Rock band, hailing from Tokyo. The band started in 1997, but got their big break in 1998 at a concert in Tokyo. They create high energy music, fusing conventional guitar music, with synthesized and computer generated sound to create a unique mixture of punk and pop, heavily inspired by the American band Devo. Their song lyrics often consist of Japanese, broken English, or just plain gibberish ("Space Language"). The band has been noted for their extremely energetic live performances and their wild gimmicky outfits.
