It’s Christmas, and Christmas is charity, which we do a lot for by the way but don’t like to mention it.
As is tradition we bring you the Stickman Cartel Christmas party. A superb opportunity to get strapped in, have a dance and get off with Helen from payroll. So forget your dignity, hopes and dreams by joining us Upstairs at The Garage in Highbury and Islington on Tuesday 20 December for 7.30pm show start to rock the hell out. Tickets are £5 in advance (http://www.hmvtickets.com/events/4692?REFID=MAMA_GARAGE) or on our guest list (send us through your names and we’ll ask the man to stick you down).
We are literally the coolest people you will ever meet so this should be a no brainer.
This also seems right time to tell you about a competition we have taken part in. The powers that be at MTV have selected us for a longlist of entrants to Brand New 2012. We’re not exactly sure what this means but we are chuffed. However, we need people to confirm this by taking ten seconds out to vote for us and you may see us on TV sometime next year.

Finally, someone spotted this person at one of our headline shows this year at Proud. We reckon this guy is the epitome of cool (20 secs in). We’d love to track him down. Is this you or do you know who he might be? Please get in touch.
Some snazzy pictures of us doing our thing at Proud Camden in August over here.
We’re heading back there on Friday 28th October for some more carnage. Tickets are onsale online over here. We have a cheaper guestlist available to friends on facebook.
I guess you thought the Stickman onslaught was over following what can only be described as a melt your face off performance at Proud. Well, I hate to be the bearer of sad news but get ready to dust of you air guitar (AGAIN) as the masters of clunge are booked to smash up the Silver Bullet in Finsbury park this Friday. We have been practising some new songs – I can guarantee that the results are nothing short of mind blowing.
Firstly, a huge thank you to everyone who has come to see us over the past few weeks around London. The show at Proud Camden was a particular highlight for us and hopefully we’ll have some videos to post soon, including some of the new tracks.
Secondly, in honour of election time here in the UK, well not really but the timing was right, the genius that is J-Level did a fucking awesome remix of Campaign. Turn it on, turn it up and have a listen.
We are featured on a charity compilation in aid of the disaster in Japan. The album is on release as of today and all proceeds go to the Japanese Red Cross. The minimum donation is £2 for over 20 tracks – money well spent wethinks. Credit goes to Steve Paul for his efforts. Click on the image below for more details.
