Will there be shirts for this one, Dave?

That's a difficult question. Somebody has printed shirts, but gave me absolutely no briefing on how many they printed, how much it cost, how much they'd be sold for or how much of the money will be given to the bands. I was only consulted in a 'what if' sort of scenario at the beginning of the year, I've not a goddamn clue what's happening with them. Though problems will arise if none of the proceeds go towards those playing, since I'm pretty certain that nobody has asked any of the bands for their permission to do this, and they certainly didn't get mine.

Sounds like you're on top of it then!

It's all stemmed from an altercation with another party over their lack of communication and general disregard for professional practice, which led to my decision to sever their involvement with the show. It'll be fine though, regardless over what's been done the whole matter will be resolved swiftly.

EDIT: Flyer and lineup updated, hopefully for the definitely final time. This show is almost as bad as Street Fighter II.

No Visceral Attack due to the sheer difficulty they've faced with finances and booking shows for the tour. Really sad to see them drop out, but it can't be helped... just a pain that it's so late.

Any news on the dvd? are all the bands up for it (we are!) The last footage we got last year really helped us out!

'We are' isn't helpful - band name would help, boss. The only band who hasn't give me a thumbs-up for recording their set is BS&B, so everyone else's set is getting recorded. I'm putting down the deposits next week, so you all immediately get a tenner knocked off.

As for the FTA DVD (assuming that this is what you were on about), not a fucking clue. Once we have the sets back we'll see what we want to do with it or if we can actually be bothered compiling one.

It would indeed, but the costs invovled would (potentially) be far more than we can afford. Chris has a kid on the way so he's having to be very careful with finances, and I'm unemployed because Sheffield eats dicks so if we were to do this, it'd either take a long time or it'd be done stupidly cheap (and therefore, badly. Most likely anyway)

Even if an actual FTA DVD isn't made, every band will have a DVD of their set. However, a free live audio compilation thrown up for download would certainly be an excellent idea.

or a video compilation of, say 2 tracks per band? for free download :P

or even just a youtube playlist thing... that way all the bands could get linked up via their youtube channels, and if each band spams a fair deal, that would be quite a bit of exposure surely?

Welp, it was a bloody success. Happy times had, though the absence of Loftin's dickwaving upset many. Cheers to all!

I watched it, on the internet...

So there..
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...
