Don't expect too much activity here over the next couple of weeks, as I'm relocating from London to Belfast!

I'm aware that there are a lot of live reviews to upload and these will be sorted as soon as possible, but there certainly won't be any new interviews or features until I've settled.

I've found few things whilst I've been packing.
First of all, I have a TON of black-and-white promotional pics of all sorts of bands from the 90s which I will endeavour to upload as soon as we get a scanner sorted out. I reckon enough people are interested in them to make this worthwhile.
Secondly, I have unearthed FIVE copies of Weedbus issue 13 dating from December 1997. If anyone wants these please email me before Monday 15 July and I will post you a copy. It's 32 packed A4 pages, mint condition (!), a lovely cover by Ruth McCarthy, an absolutely shocking amount of reviews plus interviews with AC Acoustics, Archers of Loaf, Baby Bird, Built to Spill, Griswold, Labradford, Luna, Stephen Pastel, Salaryman and Tunic (all by me), Gene (by Elena), the Make-up (by Iain) and Sugarplant (by Terry). The Tindersticks are also interviewed but I can't remember who did it!! Free to a good home if you catch me before I pack up my van on Monday....
Thirdly, I found my sad trainspotter list of all the music used in Chris Morris's excellent third series of Blue Jam (Radio One 1998). These details seen to vanished from the internet, but I found a list safely stored away under the sofa. I'll either post it here, or offer it to one of the Morris fan pages, very soon.
Finally, I recovered the Guardian reprint of Don De Lillo In the Ruins of the Future, which was his response to the attacks on the World Trade Center on the 11th September. I knew I hadn't thrown it away, but couldn't find it for ages (even on the net!). It was safely hidden with the Blue Jam stuff.
