TOUR REPORT

The november tour is now over. Lot of fun, beers, noise and road.
As always Belgium was amazing. Great audience, great venues. Thanx to Orange Factory and all the people that showed up, we'll come back soon.
France was a new thing for us and we were surprised by the cool atmosphere at the two shows we played, we will come back for more.
England was hard as always, but the ones who showed up had powerfull gigs for their money and everyone got home happy.
We have to spend a word for the Münich gig also. This was a great night for our first gig in Germany. The audience was unbielivable. We want to come back as soon as possible. Thanx to each person that was there that night and to Stefan (colour haze) to allowed us to play there.
A very special note for the bands who shared this tour with us : - Honcho, great guys and so cool music, a real fucking rock band that really kicks ass. Everyone need to listen to them. We had a fantastic time with you.
- Sparzanza, a band that you need to know about, powerfull hard rockin' music on stage, great show and attitude. In a word : BALLS
Cheers to everyone and see you next time on the road !

The collaboration between Buzzville Records and Monkey3 starts with the re-release of the debut album "Monkey3", coming out (again) in June this year!

January

Happy New Year!

After the temporary separation of Gioconda (for improve is instrument on other planets), the travels with other monkey folks for Picasso and Walter, Monkey3 is conceiving a new form of sonority, preparing the next invasion of the planets...

Monkey3 was surprised by many positive feedbacks on his "self titled" album release (read some reviews and interviews on our new link "say what?", click here).

No tours & gig could be organized in 2003, cause the temporary inactivity of the band, following some other parallel projects...

Anyway, interesting contacts happened in the last times, so be ready for a coming Monkey3 invasion!
