We finally have Merchandise up and ready! Click here to purchase your English Beat gear SMILE TRAIN So many times people shout out requests for songs, that we've hit upon a novel idea....We will play your request, whether it's a song we know well or not, if you will throw paper money at us while we play it, to donate to Smile Train!! It's worked great so far, and with a final throwing session during Tenderness we have raised enough money at every show for a smile or even two! It's a wonderful way for us all to be immediately involved in changing a kids life forever, for the price of a drink!! These kids will be eternally grateful, so will the Universe, and even maybe your liver! People tell me they are still smiling weeks after, just through making a donation, and we certainly love prancing around the stage under a rain of greenbacks like strippers!! See Smile Train blog for current totals from each city If you would like to make a donation please visit www.smiletrain.org 100% of this donation goes to this operation 0% will go to overhead!!
