The Rev Need a Drummer

One of the best rock groups I've seen over the past 12 months, Wrexham's The Revolutionary Spirit, are in need of a drummer.

Their manager has posted the following advertisement:

"Any drummers from the Wrexham/Chester area’s looking to join a band please message me for details….. The Revolutionary Spirit are looking for someone. Must be 100% committed and willing to travel to gigs up and down the country. BBC Radio One Introducing session recorded (due to air in the next few weeks); national Gigs confirmed; debut single recorded and mastered."

Contact Ross Roberts or the group directly through their Facebook page. 

Happy New Year

I was fortunate enough to spend part of New Year's Eve with my good friends Nik Void, Tim Burgess and Gabriel Gurnsey. Here's a short film that Nik took after having stolen my camera.



Also, Tim and the good people at O Genesis have also just finished R Stevie Moore's video for "Pop Music". It has puppets in it, which is always a bonus as far as I'm concerned.



Enjoy. Wishing you all the best for 2012, happy new year.
