   About Heck
I hope you're sitting down friend. Some interesting facts about Heck--------------- Mogs the drummer is a classically trained pianist and violinist. However, despite being a placid soul, he was once made to pay an £80 fixed penalty fine for throwing a thesaurus at a policeman. Later justifying his actions in court, Mogs told of his anger at the bobby's lack of vocabulary, and 'his disconcerting lust for power.'--------------- Mike the bassist met Jemma at art school in Cardiff. After graduating he taught bass to disadvantaged kids in Splott, but was sacked after slapping a boy who'd thrown coffee at a girl in a wheelchair. This is Mike's 'political correctness gone mad' story, and one he has told to a captivated audience at his local masonic lodge.--------------- Elis the guitarist actually had a jam with his politics lecturer during a seminar at Cardiff university. After a twenty minute chat about trade union legislation in the 1980s, the lecturer produced his trusty instrument and announced to the class that 'my philosophy is simple guys. Bass and middle settings on zero, treble on 10. Then it's foot on the monitor time.' Elis later described this experience as 'harrowing.'--------------- Jemma the singer was once described as a 'sexbomb' in an online review of her old band Sammo Hung. She dismissed this as being the 'flattering, but nonsensical ramblings of a pervert.' Eager not to have attention diverted away from the bands music, Jemma attacked the reviewer with a hammer....... And thus Heck were born. They all like the same records, all share the same manic desire to spend time in tiny rehearsal rooms, and all like performing to 'the kids.' They were always going to form a band, weren't they?

Hi Jemma and gang

This is just to let you know (in case you're interested or there's anyone passing by your page who might be) - there are just a couple of days left to enter the Rockstar competition which I listen for. The prizes include being the first confirmed act for Glastonbury 2010 and some recording time at RealWorld studios, and 3 finalists get to play the Pilton Party which is huge. Looking for all kinds of music so don't be put off by the name.

Details at rockstarbands.co.uk - it's free to enter. Entrants mustn't have an existing record or publishing contract.

Heck fans!

Jemma has a drawing in Attack!!!! 4, and there's only one copy left.

Attack!!!! 4 was titled 'The Anniversary of Whatever'. Contributors could commemorate the anniversary of any event they chose from history, and Jemma chose to mark the anniversary of the evolutionary divergence of cats and dogs.

The final copy of the first edition of Attack!!!! 4 is up for auction here.
Place your bids now.

My show would not exist without your music.

In return, exposure on the show gets you heard by a wide audience across Wales, including many of the country's foremost labels and promoters.

This is an excellent time to send music to me because January is, typically, deader than that proverbial final nail in the coffin.

The best way to send me your tunes is to e-mail a high quality .mp3 to:

themysterytour@gmail.com

I'm keen to hear music of any genre, made by people of any age / ethnicity, from anywhere in Wales. Musicians based in Wales, who aren't Welsh, are welcome to send their music, too. I am an Equal Opportunities Broadcaster ;0)

Please include a short biography with details of where you are based, your preferred web link, and details of any forthcoming gigs / releases.

I don't want / need photos, thank you.

Alternatively you can post CD's to:

Adam Walton, BBC Radio Wales, Library & Arts Centre, Rhosddu Rd., Wrexham LL11 1NF

Good luck & thank you for your time.
