NEW SONGS
This month I sent The Validators a whole batch of new songs for a proposed new album, which is all VERY exciting. It'll doubtless take us our usual three years to learn and record, so if you'd like to hear some of the songs a bit sooner, pop along to one of my solo gigs!

THE CHRISTMAS PARTY
I'm one of the writers of (and ACTORS in) a new web series called "The Christmas Party", which we're filming over the next few weeks and will be UNLEASHING in December. There'll be a LOT more about it next month, but in the meantime you can see what we're up to HERE:

... and you can follow the production on twitter HERE:

AND FINALLY
If you've been reading my blog or my tweets just lately you'll know I've been going to demonstrations against the Badger Cull. The whole ridiculous, money-wasting, unscientific, CRUEL mess encapsulates this idiotic, arrogant, CORRUPT government's pandering to their own narrow interests. I am, in short, not a FAN of it, and would encourage everyone to get involved. There's loads more info on the Team Badger site ( http://www.teambadger.org.uk/) about things you can do, like this Sunday's demo in Brighton, and if you have a moment you can contact your MP to ask them to sign the Early Day Motion against the cull HERE:

And if you fancy giving some CA$H, you could always help out your local Hunt Sabs. Here's one lot who are travelling from Nottingham to Gloucester to guard setts, and need help:

And I think that's more than enough POLITICS for now - back to normal ROCK news next time, thanks for listening!

Cheers,

Mark
