Friday of handfest is TODAY!
Here are some stage times for you!
Let's get freaky
And remember, be cool, don't touch anyone that doesn't want to be touched and keep hydrated!
@randomhand.co.uk Deadweight!
We're reuniting with our besties Sonic Boom Six. It's been a heckin long time since we went out and did a load of club shows together.
This is the first two of a load more planned for the year!
Yeah it was sold out before they announced the lineup! We'll be down in Norwich before the end of next year
Sorry you missed that mate. Was that kings Lynne?
The natural order of things
Some juicy day splits for Leeds #handfest
Saturday is already sold out!
Can we say 'sold out' on blue sky without getting spammed? I guess I'll find out
This is megga!
Was a little (taller than me) 12 year old at the Salisbury show last night and he was chatting away to me and asked me if I had heard of this band he had recently got into called @randomhand.co.uk.
Was super cool to see him so excited about music and ska and punk bands.
Gave him a CD. Felt right
I'm sorry about this
Well, it's been a while. A lot of stuff's happened. We recorded an album, Frosty became a dad, and we went on hiatus
But not one of them indefinite hiatuses you hear so much about, nevers because we can now announce our first gig back well be at Handfest in January!
@randomhand.co.uk
Proper love The Traitors. Been grinning ear to ear all the way through the first episode this evening! Bring it on!
👀 would you look at that!
All weekend tickets sold out weeks ago. About 80 day tickets left for each day.
Going to be one hell of a party
Zen Baseballbat really are a wonderful band.
They aren't really a ska band anymore, but absolutely love what they have become.
They were one of the first bands with a national profile that championed us back in the day, and it meant a lot!
@randomhand.co.uk FB just told me that this was 2 years ago today. One of my favourite Random Hand gigs
The end of October is going to be ruddy marvellous!
London, Southampton & Bristol with some of our favourite people
Would be lovely if you were there too!
That was pretty mad! I still have a load of footage from it that I never shared haha
On our drive to Scotland at the weekend, Dan pointed out Turnstile sound like if Lush made Hardcore, and he's very right!
Loads coming up this month!
Hebden Bridge The Trades Club this Saturday - with Zen Baseballbat & Plot 32
Camden The Underworld - 24th October - WONK UNIT & Jet8
Southampton The Joiners - 25th October - Wonk Unit, Jet8 & Phinius Gage
Brisol The Fleece - 26th October - Wonk Unit, Jet8
Look at us looking tired and old on Tynemouth beach!
Then come see us play on Saturday in Hebden Bridge
Thanks to all who made Edinburgh and Newcastle so special, we had the best time!
Really can't wait to get to our home from, Newcastle! Soon to be actual home for me... Annoyingly after we play there mind.
Excited to play the Grove for the first time too!!
Any of you lot in Newcastle? You coming to the grove next week?
I always have to check I spell Thomas right, my middle name. Always try to put the H in the wrong place... Tho when you see Tohmas it's pretty obviously wrong. Also a dyslexic
Lovely venue, can't believe we only played it once, about a million year ago with against all authority
Who fancies London?
Been a LOOOONG time since we played the Underworld
Thaaaanks! It was one hell of a time!
No one told us!!
Rebellion was a wild good gig despite getting told off
This is known as going for an 'AC Slater'
We call this going for an 'AC Slater'
Can people help us convince @holywowstudios.bsky.social to put 'devil with a microphone' on an update of their game Trombone Champ?
