Brand New Funk – A message From Grey
Funk Music is revolution and the core test of any revolution is how well it manages change and how well it works with the brothers and sisters within it. Most importantly, a revolution is about creating something new. So we created a Brand New Funk and I re-wrote the liturgy to go with it. You dig that?

Just thought we'd let you know about a gig we're doing which might (lump in throat) be our last. For a number of reasons we're calling it a day after October, at least for a while.
So Saturday the 18th of October is going to be pretty special.
We've got the big Live Room at Plug in Sheffield for the night, and pressganged almost everybody who has ever played with us over the years to join us for an Uber-Gig of Justice.
We're playing from 8 till 10:30 with a bit of a break in the middle. Then we've got the Earth Bar for more dancing and a nice chilled out after-party till 3.
It's £6 in advance from Plug Box Office on rockingham Gate (tel 0114 2413040), Jack's Records on Division Street and online at http://www.the-plug.com/tickets. And this one’s open to anyone over 14 too!
We're going to blast through into a better, oranger dimension. Please join us.
