Monorail, Edinburgh Festival and Bowie Tribute Night! Monday 4th August 2008
Our Debut single "Hairy Hands" and Why, Robot?" is now available from
Monorail in Glasgow. For those of you who don't know, Monorail is
possibley the coolest record shop in Scotland if not the world. It
doesn't really stock mainstream stuff, anyone in a touring band or just
a record fan knows about this shop, lots of rare records can be found
here, and Nanobots too can be found there. It is situated inside a pub
called Mono in King Street.
And on the 22nd of August, we will be in Edinburgh in "The Tron" in
Hunter Square, i believe its in the basement, doors are at 9:30 and
we're on at 10pm and its only £3 and you get another band as well.
And finally we will in Glasgow on the 24th August playing in King Tuts
as part of a Bowie Tribute Night with famous and not so famous
bands/acts.
there ye go, thats concludes the news for today, see you all in the Future!
Hawkfest Was Brilliant! We played we watched bands, ate food and drank booze. Perfect. Thanks to all the Hawkfest Team for putting on a great event, oh and the weather was roasting.

Festival Particle Excitement Monday 21st July 2008
Nanobots appearance at Dunstaffnage 2008 was a stunning success.
We
engaged with the humans at 7.00pm on Sunday night to an immediately
enthusiastic repsonse. Visitors, locals and a weekend weary crew
exploded with overwhelmingly energetic enthusiasm throughout Nanobots 40
min set. There was bowing, cheering, name shouting, synchronised arm
waving, a near stage invasion and a woman from California in a Robot
outfit!
Lured into the Nanobots mission tent by the promise of
warmth the humans ended with demands for autographs and CDs.
Unresistingly they gave their names, minds and wills to the Nanobots
collective.
Special commendations and rank to the first namers:
Heather,
Hazel, Matthew (b-day boy), Rob, Lisa, Allison, Kirstie, Steve, Brian,
Julianna, Andy, John, Eddie and many others who now realise that
resistance is futile!
Thanks you all.
Next, Hawkfest! On Friday
25th July nanobots take to the "Time" stage at the Mothership of ALL
festivals, Hawkfest 08! There will be such a concentration of cosmic
energy at this event that already communications satellites have had to
be realigned. Nanobots look forward to engaging with the myriad species
appearing there next weekend.
