About me: We are an extremely happy and sorted couple, together for over 5 yrs. We are responsible for the "Ministry of Loud Roadshow" which is a mobile full light and sound "disco" (hate that word). We play mostly at bike rallies in East Anglia, but also to people who like what we play - obviously plenty of rock (not metal), as much ska/reggae as we can get in, punk,psychobilly indie, Levellers type fiddley stuff, anything lively, fun and quality, played as loud and for as long as we can get away with! i (Sharon) do ..

ICH - At last the wait is nearly over! ICH are back. Arguably the finest punk band to come out of East Anglia, they are (finally) headlining the Man on the Moon on Saturday 21st June. Their influences are too numerous to mention (but Crass and Rancid are definitely in there) and mere words can’t describe their live performances. ICH have been known to blow ageing punk bands off the stage and even incited stage diving at their unplugged gigs. At Strawberry fair 2007 they even made hippies look happy! With sharply observed lyrics and a barrage of guitars ICH’s punk anthems will have you punching the air and shouting along ‘til the cider runs out. www. myspace. com/ichcolchesterpunx
