Sunday, 29 August 2010. Time waits for no man. Ivan Campo - "The Gathering" / HED's 5th Birthday. Nice Peter - "England Vlog". So yeah. not sure how I will top it next year.

HedMag: March 2009

http://www.hedmag.net/2009_03_01_archive.html

Wednesday, 11 March 2009. Three Is The Magic Number. What makes me want to sign in at 3.30am? To write my first blog post since Christmas Day. I am not sure. But, something changed today and I can't figure what. (rolls cigarette) Regardless, I assume its a positive thing. Anything that sparks you into life can't be a bad thing right! I guess the rest of the time, situations can just batter the life out of you. Watching musicians struggle away working on projects and ideas which are most likely doomed to ...

HedMag: Best Of 2008...

http://www.hedmag.net/2008/12/best-of-2008.html

Saturday, 13 December 2008. But, not to feel out of place I've concocted my own 'Best Of' and because I'm special it is a 'Top 15 out of town acts to play live for HED in 2008'. A bit of a mouthful but I don't have a ponce of a sub-editor whining at me. So, here goes. Pulled Apart By Horses. So, lets have a look at the top five that made the list. A notable mention must go to The Mae Shi. The likes of The Brute Chorus. I don't want to leave out Spokes. Eighteen months ago Glasvegas were a blip on the rad...

HedMag: Making It Big...

http://www.hedmag.net/2008/12/making-it-big.html

Tuesday, 16 December 2008. It's the question every band asks themselves. And there is no simple answer. Is it to ensure the music is both fresh and challenging? Is it simply all about contacts and networking? Maybe it's just about writing one solid-gold single? In that sense surely radio-play is a crucial factor too. And don't forget the all important 'look' and 'style' you want to portray - that's all important, right? Sentric offer a guide to what unsigned bands do wrong. I'd personally advise bands to...

HedMag: A long smoke...

http://www.hedmag.net/2010/01/long-smoke.html

Tuesday, 26 January 2010. Well, its been a while. Haha. I guess I got embroiled in life and forgot the humble blog I had such hope for. Well what has happened in the mean-time. hmm. 2009 was a fun year but ultimately one that wore me down to the bone. I put on 50 gigs in Preston, organised a month long UK tour for Nice Peter and put a lot of time into pushing Ivan Campo. Three different avenues. All rather time consuming but worthwhile nonetheless. Anyhow, enough talk of the mainstream drivel. Coming...

HedMag: Welcome to HED...

http://www.hedmag.net/2008/12/welcome-to-hed.html

Wednesday, 10 December 2008. Anyway, I am currently sat at my ‘control centre’ as a local celebrity Liverpudlian calls it, with some god awful ‘Drum’ tobacco and a glass of ice cold vimto. It doesn’t get much better than that I guess. Welcome one and all. Or to be precise. no-one right now. But it's early days. I have added a shitload of links on the right hand of the screen - make use of them while I get to grips of making this blog a bit more interesting. Muchos love. Wednesday, December 10, 2008.
