Hey guys,
Hope all is well. If you are getting this you might already know Renate and Steve Iorio and have probably been to our great website. I am not sure that you know, but Renate has been making all the e commerce sites as well as static sites. We are now building and hosting websites for others! Get us to build your site, as “Grand Opening Special” we will host your site FOR FREE FOR ONE YEAR!!!! The offer is good if you pay in September and website prices start at $195. If you don’t know us well, here is a bit of information about us, our experience and the websites we have built just below here.
If you are interested, just hit reply or go to the Indie Avenues Website. www.indieavenues.com
And pass this on to some people that might want a site!!!
I.Q Art was established in Australia 11 years ago by Renate and Steve Iorio. I.Q Art is an innovative wholesaler of quality products to over 800 stores across Australia and online. We supply greeting cards, gift cards, artwork, license images and photography, make websites, and distribute to a wide variety of outlets and industries.
www.iqartcards.com
The Vagrants are a high energy party rock band. Independence that is the word that sums up The Vagrants. Renate is the lead singer and Steve Iorio plays guitar and compose the original songs that range from very serious, to downright hysterical. The live show is high energy and is just a sweaty soaking wet t shirt ready to happen. The Vagrants have toured relentlessly for 7 years and manage themselves.

Indie Avenues is a company helping people in different areas of life. Founded by Renate and Steve Iorio it is a venture that brings all of our different friends, contacts and business partners of the past to use their expertise to help each other succeed in their present project. We have just added website building and website hosting and SEO (search engine optimization) to our portfolio. As an introductory offer in the month of September, we are giving ONE FREE YEAR OF WEBHOSTING to anyone that has a site built by IQ Website.

Merch Bitch has just recently been established, but has come from Steve and Renate’s long history of helping Australian artists to showcase their music here and internationally, get radio airplay, gigs, tours, legal issues, accounting, grants, and manage their bands. The decline in profits in the record industry has meant that many artists have no way of selling physical product to fans that may want the full CD and not just a download.

Blind Beatroot was set up by Steve and Renate while operating the Australian Showcases at Popkomm in Berlin. They have been managing bands, hotels, tours, companies and project for many years in many projects. In an effort to help others they built a website for all to use and put up information, contacts, and helpful hints from their experience.

Some of the other website that we have built are:
www.belle-cher.com
www.perfectlywrite.com.au
www.drewparsonsaudio.com
Hope to see you at the Cherry Bar on Oct. 21st, The Vagrants are playing with the legendary "X".

The Vagrants, Can't take anymore
So the CD launch of The Vagrants new CD STAND UP , has come and gone. We have had more airplay than imagined, great reviews and really fantastic response from the crowd at our gigs.
THANK YOU!!!!!!
A lot of people just keep asking what is the song "Can't Take Anymore" all about? Well firstly, have a look at the lyrics at:
http://www.reverbnation.com/vagrants
There are some songwriters that believe that "People should get their own meaning from a song". To tell you the truth, I believe that in general, (not always) but that is just a way for a songwriter to get more people like his songs. F*$% THAT!!! I really want people to know what I think. LOVE OR HATE IT!!!!
This song is about all the bullshit advertising that is up in our faces in the most pristine places. ON the slopes in ski resorts, on the roads, on your computer screen pop ups, on TV, radio, and even in state and national forests. AHHHHHHHHHHH
I may write the songs, but Renate Ludwig the lead singer of The Vagrants reads thru all the lyrics and picks the ones that she loves. She picks songs she is passionate about. So I can tell you she sings this with a passion that I am unable to do, and I thank her for that.
I can't take anymore!!!!!

"Thank's for rockin' out with "The Vagrants"
Hallo ihr Lieben,
ich hatte dieses mal echt keine Ahnung, wie ich meinen Post anfangen soll zu schreiben.
Aber ich will mich jetzt einfach mal versuchen. ;)
Es war Freitag, der 13. (Mai.)
Viele denken es sein ein Pechtag, aber das Kann ich so gar nicht verstehen.
Dieses Jahr war es einer der besten Tage überhaupt.
Als ich gelesen habe das „The Vagrants“ nach Mühlhausen komen würden, dachte ich: „Okay, kann man sich ja mal anhören.“
Ich hatte vorher im Internet schonmal in die Lieder reingehört, und fand diese ziemlich gut.
Das diese Band aus Australien kommt, ist natürlich ein weiterer Pluspunkt gewesen.
Naja am besagten Abend des 13. Mai’s bin ich dann mit ein paar Freunden in die „KuFa“ in Mühlhausen gegangen.
Mit der Vorband „Pastic Society“ gab es einen super Einstieg in den Abend. Danke euch vielmals dafür. Ich rede jetzt mal nicht so viel von eurem tollen Auftritt, da es ja eigentlich um Australien geht in diesem Blog. ;)
Das Autogrammposter an meiner Wand :)
Daher auch der Name des Post's ;)
Aber nun zum eigentlichen Thema:
„The Vagrants“
Ich weiß bis heute noch nicht, wie ich den 13. Mai in Worte fassen soll...
Nach dem Auftritt der Vagrants hab ich zu Paula gesagt: "Komm, die sprechen wir an und holen uns Autogramme!" Ich glaub sie war anfangs skeptisch, aber ich bin dann einfach drauf los.
Sie sind echt supernett. Danke Steve vielmals für das nette Gespräch und der ganzen Band für den tollen Auftritt. Leider habe ich weder Fotos noch Videos von dem Auftritt, da meine Speicherkarte von der Kamera den Geist aufgegeben hat, bevor ich die Dateien runterziehen konnte.
So kann ich meine Erinnerungen leider nur in Text- und nicht in Bild- und Videoform mit euch teilen.
Ich kann nur eins sagen: Nächstes Jahr sind sie wieder in Europa und auch in Deutschland auf Tour, wie sie erzählt haben, also geht zu einem der Konzerte! ;)

PS, I am living in St. Anton Austria and snowboarding. As with our indie rock, our indie attitude and being a typical Australian Rock band, travelling is all part of the process. My lovely wife Renate Iorio, Renate Ludwig is still in Melbourne, and she and the band, all of The Vagrants will join me here in April.
