Ah well, guess the Trolleys discography CD they were going to put out for us wont get to see the light of day after all!
Hey Chris, long time no see! I didn't know they planned on doing a Suicidal Supermarket Trolleys discography CD, I'm sure you guys can find another label to do it.
Hi Dan how are ya? Ive been following your blog for quite some time.
Yeah, we were supposed to do a discography and there was talk of a reunion tour, Ive been in touch with the others.
Keep it up!
Trolley's discography would have been great to do and the only thing holding it back was a couple of missing booklet pages. Otherwise its pretty much ready to go to press. I've lost track of Simon since New Years so pass on the word to get in touch. -Dan (of PE Records)
Thanks Dan, I passed the message on to Simon. I know he got married recently so that may be why he hasn't been in touch - that and he's an old pot head!
actually, a label from i think poland(?) recently asked to release the discography. i forwarded the message to Simon, but he never responded.
Are you kidding me? I know PE has closed its doors before, but this time I don't think they're going to open back up. This just adds to the list of heavyweights that are struggling to make ends meet and subsequently are forced into closure. I've heard rumors of some of my most cherished labels calling it quits: Crimes Against Humanity and Life is Abuse just
to name of few.
