Tom Aylott, 28th Jul 2010 @ 7:16PM
A message from the fine gentlemen of Tiger Please:

"As you may or may not know we are currently writing an album. The concept of the album is that we are gonna write songs about our fans life stories. We have quite a few in already and thanks to everyone who has written in so far but we could really do with some more.

So if you have a story about something significant that has happened in your life, wether it being a happy or sad story and want it to be made into your very own song please email leon.stanford21@live.co.uk.

Cheers guys!"
