Set yer Slinky to Stun - This Saturday

I dig slinkys. They happily shimmer down the staircase in a profoundly organized manner, and end up neatly stacked waiting to go round again. And the sound is tingling.

So we're gonna slinky and shuffle down the Bell Hotel this Saturday. We got support from the Pale Blue Eyes doing an acoustic set and DJ Squidelica up from London to munch through a pile of garage rock vinyl.

Seems like long time since we played in Aylesbury...

Here and by the way, the photo in the poster is a publicity still from a Japanese 70s film called Girl Boss Gurilla. A film that mixes Straw Dogs with Hello Kitty. I haven't seen it yet, but been dying to see it since seeing the pricey Pinky Violence boxset cover below. Sure is pretty.

DJ Delmondo van der Fox, at Subsiren tommorrow

I'll be spinning at 45rpm at tomorrows Subsiren night at the Hop Pole. I'm jazzed to see what Atomic Suplex are gonna do. See ya there.

Subsiren III - Friday 13th - Hop Pole - Aylesbury

Next Subsiren gig be on Friday 13th June. Its gonna be at the Hop Pole this time. We're kinda movin as the other place had some sound checking issues (i.e. none) for the bands. Will it work? Well the Hop Pole has a history of rocking nights and the current landlord wants to get things rocking again. And Got a good line up o bands.
