Pictures on Flickr
I had a dig round on Flickr to see what photos of the band had been posting. It came up with 620 results and some of them were pretty awesome pictures. A lot of them show the band up close although my personal favourite is the first one which shows the whole stage.
Also check out the band as South Park characters.

Live at The Cockpit
On July 9th I got the chance to see the guys playing at The Cockpit in Leeds. It's fantastic that they have got so popular and yet are still playing venues like The Cockpit as you can still get close enough to the stage to get a really good view.
The gig itself was quite heavily dominated by emo kids who stud around at the back and didn't move but once I pushed my way through to the front half the crowd actually seemed to be enjoying themselves. I know I was, I managed to annoy a lot of people by screaming so close to them :D.
The band were of course wicked. Ben's between song commentary got the crowd going nicely, not that they really needed to do much else but play their classics for the front half to go mental. While it was a fairly standard stage show in terms of what happened it just radiated energy which made all the difference. Definitely worth going to.
New stuff, moved stuff
Added a links page today with a fairly complete list of the fansites I have managed to find. It took a bit of digging to find them, most of the search engine listings are took up with generic sites like MySpace and lyrics sites which don't really offer anything good.
I've also had to do a bit of re-arranging to make everything fit on the menu. The links section as well as the about the site section are now under the more page (it really messes things up if not as the menu just extends onto a second row instead of continuing across the page).
Emo Blog review of Cockpit
Emo Blog have a review of the recent gig at The Cockpit (July 9th 2006), you can read it here.
Ah memories
I know this has been around ages but it brings but I thought I would kick off the video stuff with it because it's a bit of a classic. It's the teaser video that played on BT.com before the second album.
Hello world!
Indeed, hello world! I'm just getting my site setup as I thought it was a joke that I loved BT so much and didn't have a fansite for them. So here it is! Named after the song from their second album of course (since renaming to BT at least, I'm not counting the Pezz release or EP in that count).
So yeah, I'm going to be adding a lot to the site as there doesn't seem to be much out there which really sucks as BT are such a wicked band. And they make my floor shake when they are blasting out of my subwoofer :D.
