How good would this have been?. Some tickets for Friday nights Foo Fighters gig at Wembley were going at work this week and I briefly considered putting aside all the stuff that I’ve already put other things off to deal with, and buy the tickets.

Madlib and Talib Kweli have joined forces again and released a free album called Liberation. There’s no fannying around required to get hold of it either, simply log onto www.rappcats.com/ and download the zip file! No registration, fiddling with torrents etc, it’s just ripe for the picking!

I’ve said it before but Wellington is a cool little city indeed, which you should probably have worked out by my extended stay here! The other week Fat Freddies Drop did a free concert down at the Lagoon where I ended up in the water swimming about with 30 other loonatics as the sun set [...]

I know it was only recently that I called Morrissey a “wank-stain” but vinyl is vinyl and if you’re a Smiths fan you will want to check out the following ebay store. Mike Joyce got his cellar converted and found a bunch of old Smiths stuff in boxes. Mainly records but bits of other merch [...]

Jesus Christ it can rain here, the raindrops are the size of Russell Grant and they come down like you just offered them a free feed. Anyhow.. this is a non-travels related post, this weekend in manchester may I (well fat city) present… DJ Yoda you might want to try this link if you actually [...]

Today is John Peels Birthday.. plus it’s not far off a year since he died so just for you lot I’m risking a bumming from Damaged Goods and hosting THE CUBAN BOYS! Clearly one of Peelys fave tunes so keep your minds open and turn up your amp to 11. The Nation Needs You The [...]
