THE Rubberbandits have lost out to the marketing power of ‘The X-Factor’ as they have now conceded they will not now make the Irish Christmas number one spot.
“We are now taking some time off after a hectic few weeks, before coming back with some new tracks”, said Blind Boy Boatclub.
3.6 million Youtube hits have already been recorded on the site.
The Limerick duo has confirmed that new stock of its single Horse Outside arrived at HMV Limerick this week. Copies of the the single flew off the shelves at the weekend as people got behind the Bandits effort to be Ireland’s Christmas Number One. According to Eadaoin at HMV Limerick, “Our first delivery of the single sold out in about three hours. We received a larger delivery last Saturday and we sold out by 3pm. People were actively seeking the single out. Sales are incredibly high for a physical single.
