Miscellaneous
Some pics from my first 2 days of wondering around the site.
Black Mountain, Newton Faulkner & Neil Diamond
Black Mountain is a Canadian indie-rock band composed of Stephen McBean, Amber Webber, Matt Camirand, Jeremy Schmidt and Joshua Wells.Newton Faulkner is an English musician. He is well known for his guitar playing style, which involves him repeatedly tapping the guitar's body, and unusual plucking techniques.Neil Diamond is one of pop music's most enduring and successful singer-songwriters. As a successful pop music performer, Diamond scored a number of hits worldwide in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s.
Eddy Grant
Eddy Grant announced has had his first UK tour for more than 20 years and so he Glastonbury and some other key venues/festivals.He still makes use of any opportunity to voice political concerns, however during an appearance on British radio on 20 June 2008, he would not be drawn on the subject of the plight of the Zimbabwean people, citing a distrust of the way the situation has been reported in the press. I totally agree with him.
Joan Armatrading
Another blast from the past; and another Caribbean-born Brit. A legend as far as I'm concerned. A black woman who can really play guitar!
Suzanne Vega
Suzanne Nadine Vega is an American songwriter and singer known for her highly literate lyrics and eclectic folk-inspired music.
Trash City
Trash City: An apocalyptic dream-world straight from the pages of a 2000AD comic; an intergalactic red-light district, where space pirates, bootleggers, illegal aliens and all the scum of the universe can come to party the night away…By day and by night . . .
