Call me Dave

It's taken a while, but following Coxon's solo doings, Gorillaz, and Me Me Me, now Dave Rowntree's making a bid for a life beyond Blur.

His chosen method is The Ailerons, a band featuring more comedy names than you'd find at a clown convention:

Rowntree will be joined by occasional Blur and Gorillaz drummer Mike Smith, bassist Grog, guitarist Dan Beattie and singer Charity Hair.

They're making an ep available through iTunes (does that quite count as a debut release?) and doing a world tour of Camden and the area around it this October:

London Dublin Castle - 13th
London Hoxton Bar & Grill - 16th
London Windmill - 17th

Is that the same Charity Hair who was in The Alice Band? And should I admit to knowing about them?
