You’ve heard of “Ant music for ant people” but “Horrible music for horrible people”? This great flyer (above) was seen on the main drag of Deptford last week possibly not that far away from where ATV’s “Life after life’s” cover shot was taken (below).
Imagine if you were turned away from that event? “Sorry mate you ain’t coming in, you’re not horrible enough”. We do love the name, we bet they are all nice people and love their mum too.
A massive birthday shout out to Steve Barker, Fenny and Jim for Thirty years of the excellent On The Wire on BBC Radio Lancashire. Well worth tuning into Live on a Saturday night from Midnight to 2am on Sunday or on Listen again here. Cheers for the One Deck & Popular and Madtone radio plays in the past, it’s appreciated!
On last week’s show Fenny replayed his first record he ever spun on the show, one that I’ve never heard before by the ace Mark Perry (I’m very partial to Mark’s delivery of Reggae, ATV’s Life after Life is one of my favourite ever tunes!) with a cover of a BB Seaton/Ken Boothe’s “Whole world’s down on me.” I didn’t even know of that one either. Cheers to On The Wire for passing on their musical knowledge yet again!
While we’re on the subject of great radio shows, a big shout goes out to our good friend Dr Strangedub for playing a track off Hayereyah’s new CD on this week’s (September 10th) Echo Chamber on KFAI available on listen again here. Big up the radio!
Here’s a mad old strawberry found this morning that looks like something out of a 1970’s episode of “That’s Life!” This wouldn’t be on sale at your local Sainsbury’s, would it? It might look odd but it tasted alright to me! I didn’t know strawberry’s suffer from being “forked” like carrots do, but hey ho, that’s Life! How I used to hate that programme. “That was some very funny odd-odes from Cyril Fletcher and before that, a carrot that looked like a rude body part. Now Doc…” Ivor Biggun indeed!
