LIVE
THIS IS RADIO SCURVY: I've been asked to perform on London's own underground art radio station, Relevance FM (I think it's 104.4 FM). I'll be on between 8 and 9.30 this Saturday (31st January) . It's been organised by this guy Meenak (I think that's how it's spelled) I met at Express Excess - he's an arts journalist, and he'll be interviewing me, and I'll be doing a load of poems - turn it up loud enough, you might drown out the sound of that twat Chris Moyles in your head. I've got one new one I might debut, a topical piece about the betrayal of punk - not going to give it away, but I'll just say it's called You Were A Punk... Get Out Of It! and it's saying something that I think needs to be said very loudly and with spitting.
***UPDATE***: The Relevance show went really well. We ran a bit short of time, so I couldn't talk about the Arts Council as much as I wanted to. But I got a lot of stuff out onto the airwaves, and got to do my poem about that tosser 'Jonathan Lydon'. Bloke doing the show was quite nice, although he didn't play the sort of records I quite expected. And the band downstarirs really got into my material - on the way out, they told me that "Punk isn't dead!". Too right it's not dead - I always like it when I get that kind of reaction. Really connect with people. Not sure I quite understood music they were doing, they didn't seem to be trying to play their instruments properly, but they seemed like friendly lads anyway.
BOOKS
RECORDS
None of my records are currently available - any surprise with the corporate fucking music industry the way it is? maybe I should call myself a boyband and then they might get round to rereleasing some of my stuff - but if you have a good look around second-hand music shops you'll probably find some of my stuff left there by old fans who've since sold out. I personally left seven old LPs in Oxfam in Dalston, and - though I haven't been back there to see if they've gone yet - if you hurry up there might be one or two left.
Here's a list of my albums, and of course the two protest singles from around the time that woman (won't say her name) was destroying our bloody mines.

I copied this list off of that Jason kid, but I think it looks okay, he probably knows better than me anyway. There's also some singles apart from the two in the eighties - look out for Defense Attack Plan from 1977, which is John Peel's 142nd favourite song of all time (he gave it 6 stars). In fact, if you find a copy, let us know, because I've lost my copy and I can't get in touch with Daniel to get him to show me how to use that kazoo thing.
