Stop press!!
I am now doing a monthly Alternative Roller Disco at Mo'Club, Southampton and Every last Thursday of the Month at Goblets
Who I'd like to meet: Open minded people who have eclectic offbeat alternative music in their hearts and plenty of cash in their pockets to come to my club nights!!. Any one who supports Animal Rights, Is Vegetarian/Vegan, Is into footy especialy Southampton FC (I do have lot's of Pompey mates as well!!) those who hate the big corperate machine (even though we have to live with in it). Individuals who think for themselves and don't let the media brainwash them. I'm not a fan of the music press or MTV for obvious reasons.
I don't want those who think life evolves around a square or widescreen box or who have homophobic, sexist or rascist views. Those who think terrorising wild animals for fun is ok or experiment on animals.
Bullys revolt me. Those who tread on others feet etc without a thought to their actions etc.
As for any of the big organised religions!!!!!Well we'd all be better off without out you're superstitions thanks!!
To the Scum who still hunt illegally an apt quote from Oscar Wilde
"the unspeakable in full pursuit
of the uneatable."

Hello! Our second single ‘Bill Hicks’ is now available for pre-order on download, 7" and CD.
We are self-managed, self-published, and self-released on our own record label and our debut single "Trauma Town" entered at #9 in the Official UK Indie charts. We're hoping to make this one go even bigger -
Here's wishing everyone a tremendous time over the Festive Season and a Divine 2009...
I know where I'll be on New Year's Eve (and Norman and Wilko and Monti). What about you?!
GRACE JONES After two decades in self–imposed exile, Grace Jones returns to music with new album Hurricane. Plan B meets the self–proclaimed Corporate Cannibal: part avenging angel, part black devil, a true force of nature.
OF MONTREAL Nine albums in, and the transformation of Athens, Georgia indie dramatists Of Montreal is complete. Plan B bags a front–row seat as master of ceremonies Kevin Barnes raises the curtain on a grotesque, glittering vaudeville show featuring creatures real and imaginary, neuroses come to life, bared bodies and souls, and seductive, compulsive pop.
MOHA! For the latest In Praxis, Plan B's ongoing series on the process of music–making, we meet MoHa!, Norwegian punk deconstructionists pitting experimental electronics against skronk–jazz and watching sparks fly.
JUANA MOLINA Levitate awhile with Juana Molina, the Argentinian pop sorceress conjuring voice and rhythm into luminous songs that balance beauty and agitation.
PLUS Jahdan Blackkamore, El Guincho, Cats In Paris, Madonna, The Wave Pictures, Vivian Girls, Crystal Antlers, Bohren Und Der Club Of Gore, Antony And The Johnsons, The Bug, Wookie, Chairlift, In The Mix: Fortuna Pop, The Beehive: Music Of The Opposition, The Guillotines, Izza Kizza, Petit Mal, Danielson, Roisin Murphy.
