It's not every day you get to talk to one of your favourite bands about the death of the baby Hitler. But last weekend I got to do just that, when I caught up with &U&I following a show at The Flapper in Brum. We also discussed other pressing issues such as pissing the bed and where they've been for the past year...

It's been a quiet year in the &U&I camp, but they were bought back together on the 30th November for a memorial show in honour of Jason Rosenthal, formerly of On the Might of Princes. Support came in the way of Youthman and Shapes. When I heard Shapes and &U&I were to be playing together for the first time in ages, I jumped at the chance to get involved, and booked my ticket to Birmingham!

Following an absolutely belting set, and after indulging in far too many shandies, I had a chat with Thom, Rich and Wiz to discuss how they got started, the tension of recording an album against a beautiful backdrop, and how they got involved with weddings. We also talked about time travel and how/if the lads would cope when tasked with killing off baby Hitler.
