Italian Fish fan Fabio sent us this photo of him rocking the Little Fish sticker on his guitar. He plays in a band called PLEASE PLAY LOUD (great name!).
There are loads of Little Fish stickers backstage in venues up and down the UK, but it’s great to see them spreading around the world… If you have photos of Little Fish stickers in weird and wonderful places, you can add them to the LF Flickr group (or reply to this post).

I started my life with my parents,
I did the mum and dad thing,
Fair enough,
I always knew there were more people in my head.
I roamed with my unreal heart,
Trying my best to appreciate a good ride,
Stepping into dusty roads under impossible skies,
I’d wake up to the cold howling world,
Hands in my pocket I did what I liked.
I think too much,
Maybe I don’t think enough,
When we have found someone to befriend,
Our soul goes back to the sky,
And more than death is to survive ones own self.

On this evidence, album number two should be a treat.
Not sure when this was posted, but it’s nice.

Anonymous asked: Juju- I love your voice! What is your vocal range and did you get singing classes?
In full voice I sing from D below middle C, to C# just over an octave above middle C and then up to the C above that in my head voice. I did take three or four singing lessons which I recorded and then repeated the exercises myself at home for many months.

For Fishy Paper Square #6 we asked our friends Daley and Lizzy to come up with a design using a printing method we haven’t used yet (we’d done two illustrated booklets, a Christmas postcard, a letterpress lyrics card and a comic). Lizzy suggested monoprinting, and came up with the fox design inspired by Juju’s words.
It’s called monoprinting because you can only make one original copy of a print (with the letterpress printed Wonderful Paper Square we got Nick to make us 400 “originals”). You’ll see why when you watch the video. We really liked the idea, because it means that every Paper Clubber gets a completely unique print. There are some with an eye missing, a few that look really evil and Daley even did one with a hat (but I think we took that out).
Anyway, here’s how we did it:
The Paper Club has come along way since we first came up with the idea in May 2010, but we’re only just warming up. We enjoy sending them more than ever, and it’s great to know that the Paper Squares are landing on doormats around the world.

PS. If you have a Tumblr account, you should be able to “photo reply” to this post with a picture of you and your unique fox. If you don’t, you can post it to Twitter or Facebook and we’ll find that too…
