All The Young - Stoke Underground

All The Young. Remember the name. You’ll quite likely be hearing a lot more about them in the coming months. They are supporting Morrisey at the Victoria Hall in Stoke in early July, and also the hugely popular Wakestock festival a few days later, before heading off to Vancouver to finish their debut album. Reported [...]

A dalliance with Photoshop

After all the memorabilia type posts of late, I thought I’d just try and get a little bit of Photoshop experimentation under my belt. One of the things I’d really like to get into is graphic art, and although I’ve had a few goes (see my gallery), I’ve not really been able to give it [...]

Meeting Humans

Every time Memorabilia in Birmingham comes up, both me and my wife agree that we will absolutely give this next one a miss. And every single time, they manage to pull a couple of amazing guests out of the bag, that pretty much mean we simply have to go. Last winter, it was Angel Coulby [...]

Memorabilia 2010

This weekend, my wife and I attended Memorabilia at the NEC. For those not familiar with Memorabilia, it’s essentially a convention for all those people interested in cult TV, but also caters very well for sports enthusiasts. It offers the chance to meet people that in your (or certainly my) ordinary everyday life, you wouldn’t [...]

 
Chew Volume II – International Flavour

Tony Chu is a cop. A detective, and a damn good one. He’s not exactly the run of the mill type of detective though. He’s a cibopath, which means he gets a psychic imprint of whatever he eats. One bite of a carrot will tell him where it was farmed, what chemicals were used on [...]
