Here’s the crowd, being told what’s going on. Just so you see it’s real. [media id=194] The thing above was meant to be a live cast for all of you, done by wonderful Moshka who’s on location.

Speed Dealer Moms at Bangface Weekender ’09
Speed Dealer Moms are about to rave. No, really. The project that was born out of loooooooong jams in Winnipeg in August 2008, consisting of John and Venetian Snares/Aaron Funk will debut at this year’s Bangface Weekender – a rave in Camber Sands UK, the very same place where All Tomorrow’s Parties takes place.

That might be better anyways because you could imagine…

Video clip, more photos and reviews!
The gallery was updated again. The first album from the 05th September show now has four more photos. Many thanks to Katie for these and for the fastest-ever update in this website history. The second update would be a set of photos from the same show taken by Lauren Harrity and you can find it here. The quality of these photos isn’t something you’d usually expect to see here, but with the light and the movements captured in them, they look somewhat special. Perhaps you’ll agree, perhaps you won’t. And this really short video was taken by Luis Garcia, the same wonderful person who took the photos that, according to…
