Hi Graham, I have a copy of 'Born In The North' which I can copy and send/give (in Glasgow) via Markus if you want? There's also a couple of online stores ( http://www.netsounds.com/ - search for Born In The North' under search field 'Title') who have multiple copies of the 12"... Just managed to pi...

Actually, the whole site (which I've only just discovered!), is superb - check out http://members.aol.com/fujikikun/ and keep clicking on links (even if you can't understand Japanese)...

I wish I could, though...!!

Hi Lionel, Good to hear from you - I know the name from the discography on the web - good work! I presume the 12" you have is the one displayed at http://members.aol.com/fujikikun/kanren.html ? If so, then I think that the Massey mix only appeared on the white label, and not commercially, but I coul...

According to Ian Peel in the latest DJ Magazine, he states that there is a new Bomb The Bass album/compilation 'Jukebox' out soon, that compiles the first 3 Electric Tones EPs with some new material. Apparently, http://www.electrictones.com/ will have some more info shortly (only a Flash logo at the...

I got this back from Colours: "Ticketmaster online is not up and running yet but you can pay by credit card on 0141 332 4400" I also received the following info: "Tickets have gone on sale already and you can buy them in HMV stores across Scotland, as well as all our usual ticket outlets, the festiv...

Yeah, no worries - Shaun Ryder looked seriously ill last night - over bloated, and right arm continually shaking, and barely managing to utter a coherent word)... As they say on the New Order forum, "He looked sooooooo ill, i was rather comcerned he wouldnt make it till the end of the programme let ...

Quote from Tony Wilson from the soundtrack CD with regards 'Pacific State': "Perhaps the Manc classic. I have problems with the track merely because I can no longer separate the sound from a particular image. Steve Lock, then of Granada TV in Manchester, made a one hour doco on Madchester. And the c...

And absolutely superb it was too - the shambolic rise (and fall) of Factory with loadsa interviews :wink: Both 'Voodoo Ray' and 'Pacific' were played during clips of the Hacienda, but no interviews with either Gerald or Graham. Looking forward to the film now - might sneak off to see it after work t...

Has anyone managed to buy any tickets yet?

I phoned up Ticketmaster and they had no details of Coloursfest on their books...

Does this mean that the Ian Peel/Andy Weatherall mixes aren't on tonight?

Yeah, that's true - the reason for the best of is that they've left London Records now, hence the 'Greatest Hits'. Your best bet is to buy the new single (featuring a new version of the Golden Girl's "Kinetic" aka "Frenetic") and what promises to be a superb version of Chime (if it's similar to the ...

from nme.com: ORBITAL are to play GLASTONBURY. Orbital have previously announced two open-air shows at London's Somerset House (June 21-22), and have now confirmed they will headline the 'Other' stage at this year's Glastonbury (June 29). The Hartnoll Brothers will precede their appearance at the ev...

Easyjet (thank God!) doesn't go to Prestwick but to Glasgow Airport. Ryanair, however, does...

Am booking the flights this evening, however Ticketmaster (UK) don't have the event listed yet...
