THE LEMONHEADS have announced a run of special anniversary shows in the UK this September/October.

Celebrating 30 years of their fifth studio album ‘It’s a Shame About Ray’, the American rockers will be playing the album in full for UK audiences.

Heading to Birmingham, London, Manchester, Bristol and Newcastle, the shows will be a unique chance to hear the album live in its entirety. 

Released in 1992 and produced by the Robb Brothers, the album was an international hit gaining a #31 positioning in the UK Top 100. 

With its title taken from a quote frontman Evan Dando had seen in a Sydney newspaper about a boy named Ray being repeatedly kicked out of school, the record gained rave reviews at the time of its release.

Awarded five out of five stars by Mojo, 8/10 by NME, 8.4/10 by Pitchfork and being honoured in Rolling Stone’s prestigious Album Guide, the album was a defining force of the early ‘90s. 

Landing after the downfall of grunge — with which it shares a certain slacker attitude but with less distortion and angst — but before the arrival of Britpop, the album has stood defiant against the test of time.

 Advertisment Shambolics KU, Stockton Saturday 13 May 2023 Tickets: https://tinyurl.com/SHAMBOLICSku Stockton’s KU are once again bringing one of the UK’s most exciting new live acts to the region with a show from indie-pop four-piece Shambolics on May 13th. The Alan McGee endorsed band are signed to his Creation23 label and have recently released their latest EP, Take It Or Leave It, while the single of the same name blends Britpop influences with 80s grooves into something to both sing and dance along to. Having only formed in 2017, Shambolics’ debut single, Chasing A Disaster, went straight to number 2 in the UK Official Vinyl Chart and then just before lockdown the band played their biggest show to date, selling out St. Lukes in Glasgow. Then, taking advantage of the enforced break the band relocated to Glasgow and hooked up with producer Chris Marshall. Shambolics’ more recent work is grittier and more honest while maintaining the melodies and upbeat disposition they we

  A Man Called Adam - Legendary North-East Electronic Duo Announce New Album: ‘the Girl With A Hole In Her Heart’ Released Digitally: 26 May 2023 // Vinyl: 21 July via Other Records #ad Amazon Link: https://amzn.to/4230kBK   A MAN CALLED ADAM have announced a brand new album ‘The Girl With A Hole In Her Heart’.   An album about Teesside and the wild coastal and industrial landscapes where the band’s Sally Rodgers grew up, the album will be released digitally on 26 May (via Other Records). The announcement arrives as the duo also share its title-track today.  Their first new album since 2019’s ‘Farmarama’, ‘The Girl With A Hole In Her Heart’ is a Balearic record, though not one that’s inspired by those fabled Iberian sun-kissed beaches that stretch on forever and sunsets that stop you in your tracks. Rather, it’s a House record made for all night dancing in a decommissioned steelwork. It’s an ambient record that strolls a windswept coastline where lime-grass dunes rise and fall like slu

"It Started With A Cracked Screen" Do your research about where NOT to go to get your phone or computer fixed #consumer #tech #mobilephone #repairs

It's just a crack in the screen...... Not my usual kind of blog post. The smartphone has become part of everyday life. For a business like mine it had opened up new avenues to spread the word about my clients as a PR. I found some of these shut suddenly when my phone hurtled to the kitchen floor. Just a cracked screen. I worried the phone may cost a fortune to fix, but got similar quotes from about 3 people and so when one of them called back promising a 48 hr turnaraound, and 6 months warranty, I thought, I could trust the friendly voice of "John" at the other end of the line. The UPS driver arrived within 10 minutes and my phone was in a padded envelope off to Elite Phones And Computers in Manchester. This was a mistake. I hadn't checked the reviews online, something I always do, and warn other when I find the bad ones.  I sent the phone on Friday and on Monday checked on progress, using the on-site messaging service the company prefers to use instead of ema
