Surplus

chipping away
slowly, at marble
a statue we hope
hides somewhere under

In case you've missed it, first of all- try and pay attention, yeah? Well anyway, hometown show with next Wensleyday.

Airing out some new things, squeezing dry some classics, that sort of thing.

Come say hi in - we have no other shows booked as we are very very busy busy busy recording a new overly ambitious, highly artistic and in general pretentiously hyperlative record to cram down your precious little earholes sooner or later- When it's ready.

See you next week! -A/S+

A Happy Christmas to those who celebrate and Peace on Earth to those deserving. The slow-moving animal that was Surplus in 2025 will accelerate to a haphazard gallop next year as we celebrate 10 years of noise and disarray.

See you in 2026. -A/S+

It's pucking cake, as we say in Finland. Swipe for deets.

...and then there were two.

Truth be told I've searched for a backup for my (beaten-up, glued-together, smashed dropped and fixed up again,) old black 335 for around 13 years. I've tried guitars from all sorts of eras and makers and price ranges and nothing ever felt quite as good as the humble VGS Mustang. A beginner-tier jazz guitar. With the name of a completely unrelated more famous guitar. That was discontinued right away.

Welp- I finally found another one I could confirm physically exists in Finland, because a friend of mine had bought it, essentially unused, from a collector. Now it's mine.

Here's the deal, kids: Never give up on your dreams, if those dreams are buying extra copies of things you already have. -A/S+
