Last night I had the fortunate pleasure to be invited to see The Guillemots play an intimate gig in Manchester’s Hard Rock Cafe. With the release of the first of four studio albums this year – Hello Land – that’s correct, you heard right, FOUR ALBUMS, one can only assume they are one of the busiest bands on the scene right now.

>AmpKit Update Version 1.1 - The guys at Peavey have just informed us there’s been a massive update to the AmpKit app which supports their guitar interface, the AmpKit LiNK. Now available for everyone, AmpKit 1.1 is available free to everyone who already purchased the AmpKit for iPhone/iPod touch. In addition, any gear (i.e amps, pedals, mics) you already purchased can be easily shared across devices using AmpKit’s Restore Purchases functionality. AmpKit 1.1 leverages the iPad’s seamless rotation between landscape and portrait orientations and takes full advantages of the iPad’s larger display.

Certainly nothing in its class matches it for sheer bang for buck.” See what else they have to say and a great demo video….
