What is happening in the land of Pirates and Petes?
Wanna speak what I’ve seen, wanna reach what I’ve dreamed, wanna be kind.
Wanna seal what I’ve cut, wanna heal without rush, wanna ease time.
With your hand on your loss, all you’ve seen truly cost, no one told you.
And it grew from the day into night I’m the chain that will join you.

Re: Guys are you still alive?
There a brief mention from Tom on Twitter from 29 April (@tommysanders23) :
@StephenEHolt put on weight?? i'm not that fussy. No gigs at the mo we're doing lots of writing/demoing-Will announce in a blaze when ready!
It's infectious and who doesn't like pirates?

Re: Guys are you still alive?
Hey I don't really know where to put this so pardon me if Im wrong here...
I'd want to know if they're touring in Europe again, if there's any chance theyre coming to Spain... you guys have any idea about this whole thing? haha thanks, and I apologize for my English, Im spanish and Im doing my best.
And, so Im probably asking something they dont even know, xD, theres any fans here from Spain?
Im just so sick to claim theyre one of my favourites but no one here can be found to share this really amazing music.
Cheers!

- Redemption? Sure. But in the end, he's just another dead rat in a garbage pail behind a Chinese restaurant.

Re: Guys are you still alive?
I think the band may be working on new songs but I haven't any tour dates announced anywhere.

Re: Guys are you still alive?
Dear Pete & the Pirates, should I be gutted that Wikipedia/BBC6 are saying you've split? Any chance you could tell us something? I nominate PTJ as a go between perhaps..that ok PTJ? 
...Formula 1 in Austin and BRMC headlining the Psyche fest in April ....I want to be there!
Anyway, until I hear officially I still believe P&TP will one day rule the World on the basis that cream always eventually makes it to the top. Hope you guys have just decided to forget the whole thing for a period with a plan to come back, maybe even just rebrand? Pete & The Privates? . Please don't leave me with the crock of sh*te that is generaly about at the moment guys.

Re: Guys are you still alive?
Oh Neat Beats, I think you've confirmed what I've suspected. I was starting to hear crickets from the lack of any band news. Sigh. Hopefully something new will arise out of the end of Pete and the Pirates ? I wouldn't mind another Tap Tap record
I stayed away from any of the F1 events. Despite all the visitors from the UK and Europe, no good bands from across the pond were included unless you count Enrique Inglesias...
Austin Psych Fest has been growing every year and the first round of bands have been announced with more to come. My dream pick for Psych Fest would be The See See but I don't have high hopes.

Re: Guys are you still alive?
you know what I hate more than favourite bands splitting?
When the bands can't even put out an announcement that they have
