It’s just a gig. It’s just a list of DJs. It’s just a Sunday in Brighton. But if this small act of solidarity and fundraising can bring a moment of light in one of the darkest of times in my lifetime it will be worth it. DJs playing music for peace. Nothing groundbreaking or new in that sadly. But the sense of community in my … Continue reading Dance For Peace
Last year we got very, very close to leaving Brighton. To high re-mortgage rate rises to cope with, absentee student landlords below delivering the stress, health issues ensuring I needed a cheap and easy life. We stopped that train earlier this month (the grass is not always greener or cheaper it would seem) but not before the serious downsize was had. One of which was … Continue reading Wildblood and Queenie – The Vinyl Edit

When you write a dissertation about gay night club flyer design and a certain Paul Kemp’s Club Shame and get cited in an academic article by your uni tutor from back in the day, the ever-brilliant Annebella Pollen. Back to back with my incredible university professor Paul Jobling. Yep, that’s me, that autistic school refuser who was told they’d never make anything with their words. … Continue reading Sliding into academia courtesy of Annebella Pollen
The first bit of advice given to me when I started out DJing? Simple. Forget the expensive kit, just keep buying the vinyl. And be real nice – especially to the warm-up DJ. Always be nice to the warm-up DJ. Of course, over the past three decades I’ve never hit the heady heights of being anything other than the warm-up DJ but in all my … Continue reading Horse Meat Disco Xmas Party at Patterns
Queue Dance appearance on Saturday Superstore, a BBC TV program from the 1980s (1982-87) performing ‘Pow, Pow I’m In For It Now’. Cheggers the legend, Brighton the backdrop, Nick Goddard’s guitar the star, and Queen Josephine’s hair the perfect distraction. Well, it was 1987. Or 1985. Hence the ‘of it time’ excruciating post-performance interview. This episode of SaturdaySuperstore also featured Paul Daniels and Ballyregan Bob … Continue reading Queue Dance on Saturday Superstore 1987
