Copperpot Journals Split
Posted:
Singer and guitarist Gareth Owen (interviewed with drummer Euan by DiS here) has left a message concerning the split on the band's website.
Owen will be pursuing some acoustic adventures in his new outfit Rutland Pumas, with a release hopefully ready by November. Guitarist Stuart Turner will be making his acting debut in a forthcoming film version of 'Pride & Prejudice', while drummer Euan has been recording with ambient duo Action Force and Aurelie, and bassist Lee Dodson is preparing himself for fatherhood.
You can keep up to date with Rutland Puma goings-on via the Copperpot Journals' current website for the time being.

No!!!! Why do so many great bands split before I get to see them live?! Shit! Bollocks! Fuck!
Pilots was one of the best albums of 2003 (and last year was a Very Strong year for albums) and although the name was a bit shit, the band were fucking brilliant!!!
Gutted!!!!! -

'..Lee Dodson is preparing himself for fatherhood'; a special waste of talent if he's becoming a priest.-
Copperpot Journals Split
Absolutely gutted. I haven't been to see them since Pilots came out. And now I never will :-( They could really have gone places. -

A shame. A pretty good band who just never managed to get going under the wave of all things emo. Emphasised by the lack of a crowd at their Underworld gig in Jan. For Leicester bands theres always My Awesome compilation though.-
Re: Copperpot Journals Split
Another fantastic band. Leicester's scene isn't too bad at the moment.-
Re: Copperpot Journals Split
why post? just thought it odd that the front page news is about a totally obscure leicester band.

Re: Copperpot Journals Split
I think they suffered from the fact that they made their name through the "UK emo scene" and people were expecting them to be emo but got completely baffled by Pilots. -
Re: Copperpot Journals Split
just because you don't know who they are doesn't make them obscure, they played in London as much as they did anywhere else.

Copperpot Journals Split
i am hearing on the leicester grape vine that they are reforming with a slightly different line-up, plus the drummer has an instrumental band who will be gigging soonish, yippie! -
