Recommended Posts

is not just the start of the 2014-15 premiership season it's also the 45th anniversary of the woodstock festival


and there's more


I'm doing a gig with the band that night and it features Miller Anderson who played at that original Woodstock festival (he was in Keef Hartely Band, Mountain, Deep Purple, T.Rex, Savoy Brown, Chicken Shack etc etc) and Tony Reeves on bass (he was in John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, Greenslade, Curved Air, etc and produced John Martyn and Sandy Denny) and Jim Kimberley on drums (he was in Squeeze for a while)...and for those who don't know I used to work with a certain Mr Jansch (Neil Young, Jimmy Page, Johnny Marr's favourite guitar player)


here's a sample....on the link (though it's a different drummer)

It's at The Ivy House, 45 Stuart Road, Peckham, London SE15 - which is CAMRA's south east london pub of the year and is the first community owned pub in the UK


BTW - it's old men's music but don't let that put youb off - PLAY LOUD this will be a straight hard blues rock set with no violins or trumpets


and here's a clip

    • No they aren't. You're coming across as a smug, superior liberal, and that's what old fashioned voters (labour, Cons and now Reform) hate. That 'the deplorables' 'they're all ignorant racists' line is what's driving people away from the traditional parties and towards Reform.  You're as guilty of looking back as Labour. This is a new, post-europe world and we all need to come to terms with that, make do with what we have, and move forward.       
    • I have sympathy with any voter, anyone, who having witnessed the last 14 years and then Labour in the last year and wonders just how can things be this bad  unless a) they voted for brexit b) voted Tory after 2010 c) is thinking of voting reform  because anyone who thinks reform won’t make things a thousand times worse after voting for the previous?  It is they who are the problem.  They are the reason the country is in the doldrums with an embarrassingly-timid Labour government  Specifically Chris mason - a not very bright right leaning stooge - large part of why bbc news has become grok-level slop  
    • In what way? Maybe it just felt more intelligent and considered coming directly after Question Time, which was a barely watchable bun fight.
    • Yes, all this. Totally Sephiroth. The electorate wants to see transformation overnight. That's not possible. But what is possible is leading with the right comms strategy, which isn't cutting through. As I've said before, messaging matters more now than policy, that's the only way to bring the electorate with you. And I worry that that's how Reform's going to get into power.  And the media LOVES Reform.
