July 16th will be fine for me, can I ask my fellow band members if they’re free for it to (might have a trained up drummer by then…) or that would be too much of a logistical problem. I can definitely do it myself anyhow.
Cheers for the web-advice. See you in Middlewich, if not before.

Hi Dayve, sorry we couldn't catch more of your Waldron gig...we we're ousted for having a child and had to listen mostly from the outside! James and the Giant were sounding really good though, inside or out! Hey, how are you updating to here and your facebook account from twitter by the way?? it could save me loads of time if I can work out how to do it!

All the best, J.

Hey there,

Here's one from left field...

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?

A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:

Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella

Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.

Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.

I encourage all to visit the YouTube page to learn more (Show support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly circulate as widely as possible, here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4

Help to raise awareness.

Say have you checked out my web site recently?

Take care and keep in touch.

Best,
Faber.
