Happy birthday to you...

Happy birthday to two original Traders Charlotte and Elizabeth and congratulations on two years of illegal drinking in pubs! Hope everyone meets up to celebrate, would be nice to have a BIG Traders get-together because things seem to be falling apart lately and we don't want it to get like that do we now? Traders forever and all that! Anyway being 18 is alright, just like being 17 but without anything to worry about in pubs.

Anthem?

Well this site is in serious need of an update I've been told! Send me your fucking photos then! There's no need to worry anymore though, a digital camera has been purchased today, especially for your viewing pleasure.

Anyway the results of the anthem of the summer 2005 are here.

Your Traders Anthem Of Summer 2005 is.....

I'm Not Okay (I Promise)-My Chemical Romance.

Full results of the poll were:

I'm Not Okay (I Promise)- My Chemical Romance 7
Strasbourg-The Rakes 5
Neighbourhood #2 (Laika)-The Arcade Fire 4
Drop The Pressure-Mylo 2
Huddle Formation-The Go! Team 1
This Is For The Poor-The Others 1

Bit of a turn up for the books there I think you will agree, but oh well this is a diplomacy.

Killers On Camera = Members Of The Public

If you haven't heard already your favourite unsigned band Killers On Camera have changed their name to Members Of The Public. If you like them or enjoy listening to fuckin awesome music download their album sampler demo clips HERE! It's lovely.

Vote For Your Summer 2005 Anthem!

Here's your chance to immortalise your anthem of summer 2005 in the new poll on the side of the page (usual place!). Sorry I chose the options myself and there is no option for "other" so you'll have to make do with the available suggestions!

The options are:

I'm Not Okay (I Promise)-My Chemical Romance

Strasbourg-The Rakes

Drop The Pressure-Mylo

Neighbourhood #2 (Laika)-The Arcade Fire

I think all Traders will agree that they are the right options.

Make it a good selection to go down in history with last summers anthem Float On by Modest Mouse!

BUSH IS BACK!

KATE BUSH has announced details of her new album.
The singer will release the double-LP 'Aerial' on November 7.
The record will mark the eccentric performer’s first since 1993’s 'The Red Shoes'.
'Aerial' will be preceded by the single 'King Of The Mountain' on October 24.
No live dates have been announced, though Bush has only toured once during her career, in 1979.

How exciting. She's such a fox!
