07/11/07 Website version 2.1 released.

Ok, it's only slight changes, but there's a new permanent quick links navigation strip on most pages of the website now, which enables access to all the areas of the site directly. Also the whole site is finally centred in the browser (this is something we have meant to do for a while). It's only a slight improvement on V2, but watch this space, version 3 is currently in development!


03/11/07 E80 Album Almost Complete.

After what feels like months in the studio, our first album is almost complete! The recordings are complete and are now in the hands of the mastering people. The completed CD should be available for Christmas and would make an excellent present for anyone with great music taste.

04/02/07 Website Transitional Nightmare!

What started out as a slight modification to some of the buttons on the website, has created a nightmare for the design team. Sections of the site have been disappearing, new button designs are mixed in with the old and some links are not working correctly anymore. We are aware of this problem and working to have everything "improved" and working properly as soon as we can.

*NB* During this transitional period you may notice some inconsistencies with page design.


11/01/07 Electro 80's Forum Online!

After rigorous testing (well about a day with 5 users!) we've decided to open up the Electro 80's forum to everyone else... simply CLICK HERE and sign up, there's lots to discuss - 80's nostalgia, film, videos and music, the more people sign up, the more interesting it will become! Create your own topic to talk about in "Electro Talk" or trade your unwanted stuff in the "Tri-Coloured Swap Shop"!


10/12/06 Britannia Adelphi Hotel Incident.

Last night's gig at the Adelphi hotel was a huge success apart from a minor incident with the doormen! Red had left the venue to purchase a pack of batteries from the newsagents and found on his return that he was unable to gain entry to the hotel! After a huge "discussion" with the Gentlemen in Black, it transpired that the whole thing had been a wind up by the other band members... quite embarrassing as a few words were exchanged, many ending in "off".


5/12/06 - Prototype E80 Merchandise Arrives!

We have just received the first batch of official Electro 80's merchandise. The prototype caps and t-shirts arrived today and are looking the business. These high quality items feature full colour embroidered logos on stylish black material - the perfect gift for Christmas. More details will be posted on the website soon, but if you can't wait that long, drop us a line and we will try our best to help.


23/11/06 - Green out of live line up!

Details on this one are a bit sketchy at the moment, all we know is that our Green has been quite badly injured at work and wont be able to perform live (possibly until after Christmas)! The band has been working like mad with a stand-in keyboard player (Neil) until Green can return. We wish Green a speedy recovery - get well soon mate!


7/11/06 – New website under construction.

As you may have realised the new Electro 80’s site is finally online, although quite a bit of the content is still in development! If certain areas are not available, please bear with us and keep revisiting the site as new content is being added daily.


5/11/06 – Increased lighting show.

I know you thought it wasn’t possible, but we’ve improved our lighting show by adding even more scanners and a new larger capacity controller! The previous show had been impressing audiences all over the country, but we decided that we wanted even more! Work should begin in the New Year to incorporate the additional visuals into the show.


15/10/06 – Electro 80’s dice with death!

After last night’s gig in Carlisle (Saturday 14th October), Electro 80’s are currently in a state of shock and pretty grateful to still be alive, after the wheel came off “Duran The Van” (The Band’s Gigging Vehicle) at 70mph! Both the Police and the guy driving the recovery truck were amazed that the van hadn’t “flipped” at such high speeds. The lucky escape can only put down to the extra weight in the back, the wet driving conditions and Blue's  level head in a moment of sheer terror!

Welcome to the News Section of the Website.

We've got our first ever Video Blogs online courtesy of YouTube. Intended to be a "Fly on the wall" look at the Band, it seems as though Electro 80's attract odd situations with occasional hilarious consequences! Please CLICK HERE to view all of our Blog Entries so far!
