Merry Christmas to you all!

Christmas is here once again, a time to give thanks for our blessings, a time to reflect and to look forward...

This has been a very special year in FM history.  Back in 1986, as fresh-faced whippersnappers (!) - in venues such as Wishaw Heathery Hall, Birkenhead Stairways, Central Park in Burton on Trent and Coventry General Wolfe - did any of us think we would all come together again 25 years later to celebrate Indiscreet 25 Live?  A massive thank you to everyone who joined us at Glasgow Cathouse, Manchester Academy and London Shepherd's Bush Empire to turn back the clock and party like it's 1986!  We were touched also by all the heartfelt comments you posted in our Indiscreet 25 Live guestbook.  To those brave souls who joined in the fun and sent in their photos from the 1980s for our Class of '86 gallery - we salute you!

We kicked off 2012 of course with a headline spot at the Great British Rock & Blues Festival in Skegness, what a fantastic time we had and it was great to see so many of you there that weekend.  The second half of our year was dominated by shows with our good friends Thin Lizzy, during the summer in Carlisle and Belfast and then in November / December on their UK tour which saw us joined by those lovely chaps from The Treatment.  We had a blast and it was fabulous to play towns which were new to us and to revisit places such as Norwich and Middlesbrough.

We also put any spare time to very good use this year, preparing for the release of our new album ROCKVILLE next March.  ONLY FOOLIN' EP gave you a taster of what's to come.  Your encouragement and your support via our PledgeMusic campaign has been phenomenal and has spurred us on.  The new songs for the 2-CD Edition of ROCKVILLE are all recorded and we can't wait to start filming the promo videos in January.  If you Pledged to join one of our video shoots, see you in a couple of weeks!  We're also looking forward to seeing you on our headline tour in March.  Special Guests will be announced very soon, we're so excited and we're sure you will be too!

We thank each and every one of you for being a part of our year, your continued love and support never ceases to amaze us and we would like to take this opportunity to wish you and your loved ones a peaceful, healthy and very happy Christmas.

Steve, Merv, Pete, Jem and Jim

Pete's Belsonic Blog - Saturday 18th August

Yes, we did indeed go for a last couple of beers in the bar when we got back (it was probably never in doubt if the truth be known).  Well actually just JK and me, and I had to persuade Jim to come along, albeit not very hard.  I only had a couple of bottles of beer at the gig and I got to bed around 2am far more sober than after the previous night's excess.  I woke just after 8am and gave our singer a wake-up call - programming the alarm on his phone is unfortunately a bit beyond the poor love...  Read more...

Pete's Carlisle Blog - Friday 17th August

We stayed up in Altrincham last night en route to Carlisle.  We arrived about 9.30pm, checked into the hotel and met in the bar to discuss the itinerary for the evening's entertainment.  Unsurprisingly curry and beer was the outcome.  Found a very good Indian restaurant close to the hotel and curry accompanied by large bottles of Cobra was consumed with ease.  Fed and watered, we decided more beer would be a prudent way to finish off the evening.  We found a bar close by with an acoustic band.  We rolled out of there about 2am a lot more...  Read more...

FM Official gets a Makeover

We've been very busy little bees and through the magic of t'interweb our website has had a bit of a makeover.  The main pages have kept the same URLs so you shouldn't have to change any bookmarks you may have stored for those pages, although you may have to refresh your browser to see the updated pages. We have however streamlined some of the navigation to sub-pages and sections.  We trust you will find the updates make our site even more accessible.

Some of the main changes are -

• Gigography and Indiscreet 25 Live pages are now located under 'Live'.  Our Live page is where you will find details of any shows we have coming up.  Our Gigography lists all our shows from 2007 to date with links to the relevant Diary pages.  The Indiscreet 25 Live section houses the Rogues' Gallery (rare photos from the FM archives);  Guestbook (share your Indiscreet memories);  Competitions page (your chance to win some quite special prizes) and Class of '86 section (your chance to be immortalised on the FM site!).
• FM Discography and Lyrics are now housed within our Media pages.  FM music and video players are located on the main Media page.  Alongside our Discography, other sub-pages include audio interviews, magazine articles / reviews and downloads of guitar tabs and mobile apps.  The Wallpapers section includes two brand new wallpapers you may download for your desktop.
• Question & Answer sessions with FM band members can now be found under 'About' in the menu.
• The FM Chatroom is now accessed through the Forums menu.
• Upgrading our Photo Gallery page will be a mammoth undertaking.  We didn't want this to delay getting our new website uploaded for you so we hope you will forgive us if it takes a little bit longer for the Gallery page to be fully upgraded and operational.
• Lightboxes have been added to various pages such as some of our diaries and the webshop, enabling you to more easily view larger versions of images no matter which browser you are using.
• Videos on our Home page and those located on other pages such as some of our Diaries have been upgraded.  Again you should be able to now view these from any of the major browsers and mobiles / iPads / iPhones etc.  We will continue to roll-out these upgrades across the site to incorporate other features such as the music and video players on our Media page.

If it's been a while since you last visited our site we cordially invite you to spend a little time checking out all the features.  We would especially love you to participate in the Class of '86!

Jim Kirkpatrick at the Rock of Ages London Premiere!

We're very proud of young Jim who was playing in the Rock of Ages London Premiere All-Star band in Leicester Square last Sunday. You can watch the coverage from the premiere on Livestream.

Many thanks to Becky Reed for this great photo of Jim and his lovely better half Lol schmoozing with Tom Cruise on the black carpet at the weekend.  Becky's report from the Rock Of Ages Premiere and more photos can be found at This Is Fake DIY.

August 2012 shows with Thin Lizzy

We're extremely pleased to confirm we will be appearing as Special Guests of Thin Lizzy at two shows in August - on Friday 17th August at The Sands Centre in Carlisle and on Saturday 18th August at Belsonic 2012 in Belfast. The Answer and Sweet Savage will also be appearing at the Belfast show.

Full details and tickets for these shows are available at The Sands Centre and Belsonic 2012.

Needless to say we're very much looking forward to playing our first ever show in Carlisle as well as returning to Belfast, a place which for us has become a firm favourite in our touring schedule.

Roll on August!

Pete's Indiscreet 25Live Blog - London 10th March 2012

Tired. Got to bed about 5.45am, woke up around 9am and just couldn't get back to sleep. Grrr! We met in reception at midday and found a rather splendid diner where we had brunch, Bellies full we headed off to Shepherd's Bush and the Empire.

Now the Empire has always been one of those venues I've wanted to play but never had done. After we called it a day in '95 I thought I would never achieve that ambition but here I am on 10th March 2012 finally realising it with the band I love. I am indeed a very lucky individual. I walk onto the stage of this lovely old theatre and...  Read more...

Pete's Indiscreet 25Live Blog - Manchester 9th March 2012

Woke up about 8am, tried to get back to sleep, couldn't, balls. Sharing with Richard, our sound man. Rich is also driving us, he'd had a long day and I didn't want to disturb him by getting up so I lay there and probably dozed a bit but not so I noticed. Rich woke about 10.30am, we got ready and went in search of caffeine-filled beverages. We got on the road to Manchester about 12.30pm. An easy drive into the City of Manchester. 

The crew are here, the gear is going in. Wow, what a fine venue. It's a sell-out, I'm thinking tonight could be rather special. Soundcheck goes without a hitch, all sounding good. The Deborah Bonham Band is going to join us and Romeo's Daughter this evening and we also have a very special guest joining us tonight...  Read more...

Pete's Indiscreet 25Live Blog - Glasgow Thursday 8th March 2012

25 years (and a bit) ago our début INDISCREET was unleashed onto the unsuspecting public and here we are today heading for Glasgow to celebrate that fact with the first of our "25 Live" shows. We're playing the album in its entirety, some songs we haven't played live for probably 20 years or more, and with Love Lies Dying - tonight it will receive its live début.

Today started as any normal weekday with the school run but that was to be the end of any normality for the next 3 days. Straight afterwards I headed...  Read more...
