WOULD BE FRIENDS - PLEASE READ:
We're pretty accepting of friend requests and rarely say no. But no-one likes rejection, so please bear in mind that if you clearly have NOTHING in common with what we do and what we love, you're wasting your time. That generally means blatantly commercial exercises with no burlesque/striptease/erotic connections; people who talk about how much they love God; or musical acts who we would NEVER even consider having perform. Anyone who continually posts huge images to our comments page will also be dumped - every now and again is fine, but show SOME restraint.
And of course we won't accept friend requests from anyone under 18. Sorry kids!
* THE UK'S NO. 1 ROCKABILLY BAND JACK RABBIT SLIM LIVE * This band are the kings of sleazy rock'n'roll, take the raw urgency of Johnny Burnette Trio, the savage sounds of Link Wray and raise it on a diet of low budget b-movies, sexploitation flicks and juvenile delinquency and you almost have it.
We wanted them to play at our 3rd birthday party last year but they were booked 6 months up in advance so we had to wait our turn for the sleazy sounds! Be sure you don't miss this one!
As well as the band we will be spinning the usual blend of rockn'roll / garage / frat / surf instrumentals / r'n'b and other oddballs that seem to fit the night.
DJ's Martin Lawrie, Nick Smith

Hi! Just wanted to make sure all my friends know that my 2nd horror novel SACRIFICE is now in stores everywhere, including Amazon.com! I hope you'll check out this debauched and demonic horror ride! Here are a couple reviews it's gotten so far:
“SACRIFICE is a full frontal assault on your senses. It is a dark, brutal, bloody and terribly frightening book. Everson went deep into some dark abyss to bring this book to the light of day.... I highly recommend SACRIFICE.” —Famous Monsters of Filmland
“John Everson manages in SACRIFICE to dispense buckets of blood, provide edgy perversity, and walk the tenuous tightrope of horror and sex without falling: It’s rather an amazing feat.” –Hell Notes

REVIEW FROM RAUCOUS RECORDS, JULY 2008- Hard hitting Rockabilly with a healthy dose of Blues Bop. MojoKings debut album boasts plenty of potential dance-floor fillers, lots of great original material, and some outstanding guitar work which lifts the band head and shoulders above the standard Blues-A-Billy Bop.
REVIEW FROM FRENCH MAGAZINE "KUSTOM GARAGE", JULY2008-I got the devil in me . So what ? I also got the devil in me , the brunette on the cover probably got the devil in her. So What ? So...the devil gave them the fuckin power to storm every bar they play in . 13 tracks to make you joining the cause. This CD it's the foot (it's a french expression to mean it's the dog's bollox!) , it's the foot like the pretty one of the pin up in a fishnet stockins on the back cover!!-Mr Ducktail
REVIEW FROM REALLY ROCKABILLY. COM--The Mojo Kings are a renowned rockin' three piece band from East of England, the guys play Bluesy rockin' music and they definitely spread that Mojo charm to their listeners. Lucky 13 sleazy tracks, the majority of which where written by the guitar player/ vocalist Paul Scoulding. At the same time the band does not forget
