MOVIE FEATURES AND RADIO PLAY

- Airplay now in MACEDONIA!!
MOJO BLUES 94.1 FM, Radio 2 in Skopje started playing us in February 2007 (Sundays 6-8pm).
The 4th February 2007 playlist included no less than three Convulsions tracks: Kowtow, Smoking In Germany and Watch Your Step.

- Several tracks from our "Shaken and Disturbed" album are on the Resurrection Mary movie soundtrack: (http://www.resurrectionmary-movie.com). The movie can be watched for free at FEARnet.

- The track "Don't Know What To Tell You" is reputedly part of the soundtrack for CVP studios' "On the Road Trip" which turned out to be a porn movie and was then apparantly changed to "Adventure Sex 1" on DVD from Hustler studios. As the original agreement did not include rights to sell the soundtrack there are lawsuits pending initiated by other artists - all interesting stuff, and no, we haven't seen a copy yet as we were meant to receive free ones and did not!

- Airplay now in Holland and Belgium on Milo FM 103.1 every Thursday 7-10pm!

- BERLIN airplay! See DJ Lord Litter on line at www.Lordlitter.de

- BELGIUM and ARGENTINA radio stations play us!! The Buenos Aire's RnB Hour started playing us Saturday, July 27th 2003 with "Good Times Blues" shortly following. Yeah!

AND "Blues at Sunrise" on Austin KVRX 91.7 FM Wednesdays 7-9am.

Actually, beer festivals seem to be a new niche for us. Keswick Ale Festival June 5th went down really well (as did the superb ales)!
