Swedish rockers, ROYAL REPUBLIC, have started a blog, which you can found over at THIS LOCATION. The first post was written by Per and you can see an extract from it below:

Four scores and a little while ago we started talking about the idea of having a band-blog. As all the other guys are illiterate* dicks who can’t sit still long enough to take a crap, the shortest straw was forcibly given to me.

I’m terrified.This is like way too much responsibility. A blog has to be maintained on a regular basis. What the hell do I talk about? How the hell am I going to keep this thing interesting? I’m truly dreading this first post because I know once it goes online, this is going to be such a forever and ever kind of endeavour. :p

The guys are coming to the UK soon and if you hadn’t seen the awesome Denon competition that is running, check it out HERE! There are still VIP packages to be won for the following dates but hurry before these get snapped up too!
