A reply to a article on No Depression website http://www.nodepression.com/Columns_Writer.aspx?author=326 As for the end beginning of vinyl etc…from a purely personal point of view I prefer picking up a vinyl copy of Cash’s the Rambler to any ‘digital experience’ much as anybody in right mind would prefer an old Cadillac to a Humvee or whatever BUT the [...]Joes Mums Musical Circus September 3rd / Loggerheads 20th Cancelled

Bulrush Festival As part of the annual Lady Bay Open Arts Festival, the Thames Delta’s premier dead country and western legend hosts the inaugural Bulrush Festival, bringing a taste of flyblown Mississippi and a touch of Texas to the leafy Trent-side suburb.

Just when you think everything is doom and gloom (last five years in my case) something comes along to give you spurious hope…can’t reveal all yet but things being mashed by recession may just favour a return to ‘real’ art…who knows… Meanwhile been musing upon this statement from Tom Wolfe’s Painted Word tome……sums it all up [...]R.I.P. Nottingham Contemporary Art Scene?

The wide white sky was gone. In its place, pale yellow stalks, dry cracked dirt and empty ears of corn. His world had spun seven times and on the eighth his face had come to rest here. He blinked warm blood as it trickled down his forehead and into his right eye. Already dust and [...]About
