There's been a big exciting THING going on these last few weeks, and now it can been revealed - I've got PUBLISHING! WHOO!

No, look impressed, this is Quite An Exciting Thing! For the next five years most of my songs will be OWNED by Wipe Out Music, who will be doing their DARNEDEST to get them onto films and compilations and things, and also COLLECTING the bits and bats of CA$H that the PRS are supposed to collect!

It's not been any easy thing to come to terms with, I must admit - I don't want to sound like a pillock here, but over the YEARS and YEARS of nobody else giving a toss about my brand of ROCK the songs have been pretty much the only thing I had to show for it, and the idea of somebody else "owning" them took some getting used to, but it was made easier by the fact that John, who runs Wipe Out, is well know to us - he used to work at Overground, our former radio pluggers, who were ACE people and VALID in the old-punk stylee.

So yeah, I think this is going to be GOOD. It might mean no change at all, or it might mean "Payday Is The Best Day" gets used in the next Star Wars film! SURELY it must be the latter, right?
