The second record we played on The Zanzibar Lounge was by an insanely rare British Twee Pop band called Twa Toots. If you have heard of this band outside of our podcast, feel lucky. A google search for them turns up jack crap.

I’m not sure if he/she wants their identity revealed, but a friend of ours has created a Twa Toots MySpace page. You can get there and add them as a friend at:

myspace.com/twatootspop

There are 4 tracks up there you will have a hard time finding in all but the most pretentious filesharing networks, so revel in them and bask in the glory which is Twa Toots.

We have also mentioned several times that Marc and Nicole write for web zine - RetroLowFi - they do a column there called Criminally Overlooked, and Twa Toots got a feature. The post doesn’t have much info, but it helps to fill in the story a bit. Check it out.

Well, we have finally succumbed to the torturous hordes begging us “PLEASE! WE NEED TO BE YOUR MYSPACE FRIENDS! PLZ W/ CHERRIEZ!”

Well wait no longer, fair fans!

Presenting the Zanzibar Lounge’s own MySpace page!

Be our friends, subscribe to our blog, comment on our photo(s), but don’t leave us gigantic images in comments… we will delete them, no matter how funny they are.

On a side note, Ryan has been collecting some YouTube videos he thinks you all might like, they will appear on the MySpace, as well as here at Zanzibar.Liberatr.net on a page called Video.
