About me:
ACCESS ONE STEP. The Official History of the Joiners Arms, Southampton. Foreword by Andy Burrows (Razorlight). Compiled by Oliver Gray. Coldplay, Franz Ferdinand, Oasis, The Manic Street Preachers, Radiohead ... Their careers could never have started without the help of small, atmospheric venues like the Joiners, an unassuming but much-loved backstreet pub in downtown Southampton. Richard Ashcroft cites the Joiners as the venue of his greatest ever performance, the Manic Street Preachers signed their record deal there and Oasis played there for £100. And every day of the week, it stays loyal to the grass roots as it plays host to local and up-and-coming bands. ACCESS ONE STEP tells the story of the Joiners in the words of the people who have lived, worked and played there. “My whole life has been shaped by the Joiners” – Greg Gilbert, Delays. Stuffed with photos, memorabilia and contributions from all the main players in the venue’s history, ACCESS ONE STEP tells the remarkable and sometimes moving story of an area of the music industry which has seldom been explored. The book can be obtained from Amazon or through any good bookshop. If you buy it at the Joiners, £1 will go to Macmillan Cancer Relief. We hope you will use this Myspace site to send us your memories of the Joiners. If you've ever played there, attended any gigs there, or just have something to say about the Joiners, please post a comment. We hope to do a second edition of the book, so if you have any contributions, please contact us. Thank you.
Who I'd like to meet:
Anyone who loves the Joiners Arms, Southampton.

Thanks for the ad. We played one of our finest gigs at the Joiners, a few years ago. We were even allowed to kip in the flat upstairs, as opposed to dossing in our (admittedly health hazardous)transit van. Happy memories.
All the best,
Jimson Trance

the title, Access One Step, might have baffled some of the younger readers Oliver - any one who went to the NBT era gigs will of course remember that the phrase always appeared along the bottom of the posters for gigs.. all STE posters seemed to have it as well I seem to remember. Wheelchair users were welcome and occaisionally would turn up at the odd gig and of course easy access is now 'the law', but wasn't the case back in the 80's. I asked Mint why he always used the slogan and pointed out what a a cool and politically correct guy he must have been back then - I had to put it on or else October Books (when it was in Onslow Road) wouldn't put up posters in their window - he said. So, that explains it, Mint wasn't so PC and cool as we thought after all!
