Promoter Vs Band - Getting Paid

Luke Younger made this great video after a encountering a real drongo playing a gig with Spin Spin the Dogs (not Vincent)


P.S Does anyone know how to not lose money from being in a band? I need some advice! grrr

Band Map from Hoaxine issue 1

Here is the band map from Hoaxine issue 1. You can buy the zine online for the charity Crisis by following the link.

It centres on The Human Race somewhat of a supergroup with whom Kasms and about everyone else I can think of are affiliated by members. Please email me with any screaming errors, i did this mostly out of my head so it might not be exact. This map is by no means complete, in constant flux and will be work in progress for some time. It will one day cover an area the size of a football pitch.



There are a few blasts from the past here. I'd like to get a recording of a 16 year old Rachel's first band Ostara. The band featured Rachel and her super talented cousin Lucy Kitt. Ostara or Eostre is a goddess who gave her name to the spring equinox/ Easter

2010- a brave new era of musical ouroboros

plese please not another decade of Iggy Pop! Despite the desperation of yet another reunion i'm pretty excited about Soundgarden reforming. Its the best news of 2010 so far.....I wanna get tickets but worried it's totally heading for massive let down similar to Soundgarden just before they split up.


Reading festival this year will probably look something like this:


I REALLY hope so! yay to devolution!

Jane Shore



Jane Shore was the captivating, sexually liberated mistress and courtesan of among others Edward IV and William Hastings. She was known for her quick wit, charm and humour rather than her beauty. Tried for promiscuity, Jane was ordered to do a walk of shame through the streets in her under garments carrying a lighted taper. Imprisoned by Richard III her allure was too strong for the kings solicitor, she was pardoned and they were married. A legendary ballad suggests that Jane fell on hard times later in life and miserable from poverty died in an East London ditch.
