First Mousetrap of 2010 starts Sat 2nd Jan. Wipe away those winter blues and the excesses of the festive season.

DJ's Niamh Lynch, Spider Webb, Mouse, Nick Brown (Intoxica) & Dr Robert!

I never made it along - as I live in Scotland - but i am properly gutted as it was somewhere I always wanted to go.

Are the people who run it doing anything else?

Or can anyone recommend any good garage rock n roll nights in the big smoke to check out next time i'm down.

See you on Friday!

MAGIC SWIRLING SHIPS Thursday June 25th Who will next take a trip to these shores in their magic swirling ship? The sheer number of quality ‘60s-styled bands around the world has inspired us to start a free monthly Thursday session where we can showcase the best bands from that scene, ably supported by London’s own fuzz pounders. Your resident DJs for this night are Phil Istine and Fabman, spinning raw, wild ‘60s garage, freakbeat, punkadelica, and acid rock. Opening night line-up: leftfield, sleazy garage slop from France Wild Women & The Savages! they love The Monks, they formed a band… The Nuns! primitive fuzz devotees The Vinyl Stitches! @ The Legion 348 Old Street London EC1V 9NQ Tube: Old Street, Buses: 55, 243 7pm-midnight, free entry

here goes the tour update:
A band from Moscow, Russia, called The Cavestompers! confessing savage garage-punk, from mid-sixties and primitive beat sound, filled with psychedelic guitar and organs passages and a dose of r'n'b to all of this. You can check more in the links below. In January 2009 we've released a debut vinyl LP on Groovie Records(Portugal) and a CD down here in Russia and now are going on a European tour to support the release. Besides programme full of our own songs, kick-ass obsucure covers and plenty of precious trashy gear, we will carry a russian garage-punk distro with a bunch of cd/vinyls - representing the whole variety of local scene.

GREAT NEWS FOR FANS OF AUTHENTIC 1966-67 AMERICAN GARAGE BAND ROCK 'N ROLL! The all-original 1967 line-up of GONN will tour Europe for 2 weeks, beginning June 18, 2009. Shows on deck thus far include Paris, Amsterdam, Torino with a dozen others... Craig Moore (bass/vocals/screaming), Gerry Gabel (organ/vocals, the voice heard singing "Blackout Of Gretely"), Rex Garrett (lead guitar & fuzztone), Larry LaMaster, rhythm guitar, and Dave Johnson (drums), will be hammering home 90 minutes of roof-rattling 60's punk exactly as they did 40+ years ago, back when it was simply called 'rock 'n roll'. There are precious few all-original 60's garage bands to be seen these days, and this will be a show not to be missed. UK shows will also feature new-generation-garage rockers FLIGHT 13 from Doncaster, Yorkshire, with guitarist/vocalist Bob Hughes, veteran of the FUZZTONES GONN PRIMITIVE TOUR in October & November of 2008, with Craig Moore (GONN), Rudi Protrudi & Mike Czekaj (Fuzztones), and Lana Loveland (Bonniwell Music Machine), so it will be a fun reunion of sorts, as well as a night crammed full of original American garage rock & psych. GONN music permeates the universe via LP & CD currently in print on the Sundazed 'Loudest Band In Town' LP and Rhino's legendary 'Nuggets' box set, and has previously circled the globe via the Bomp /Voxx LP, the UK 'Pebbles' box set, "Frenzology" & "GONN With The Wind" CD's, countless bootlegs and '45's & EP's. NOW available - the brand new "GONN For Good - Best Of 1966-2008" CD that includes the best studio tracks, live reunion recordings, and an otherwise unavailable 2008 cover version of The Fuzztones' "Shame On You". (All available via the myspace page: http://www.myspace.com/gonn66). Live footage of GONN & Craig Moore at various US shows are scattered around youtube, and if you search youtube by enetering 'Fuzztones Gonn' you will find many audience postings from that fall tour. But THIS will be the show to see in Summer 2009! FRIDAY, MAY 29 - COLUMBIA, MISSOURI (USA) - The Blue Fugue (Tour Kick-Off Party with 'Pat Boone's Farm', 'The Acbs', 'Another Holiday') TUESDAY, JUNE 23 - AMSTERDAM, HOLLAND - Maloe Melo Blues Cafe THURSDAY, JUNE 25 - NANCY, FRANCE - The Soapbox (with 'Soul Accelerator') FRIDAY, JUNE 26 - GENEVA, SWITZERLAND - The Moloko Bar (with 'The Jackets') SATURDAY, JUNE 27 - TORINO, ITALY - sPAZIO211 (with 'Gli Ultimi') SUNDAY, JUNE 28 - PARMA, ITALY - Presentazione Festival Beat #17 Special Event TUESDAY, JUNE 30 - MUNICH, GERMANY - The Atomic Cafe WEDNESDAY, JULY 1 - TBA THURSDAY, JULY 2 - STUTTGART, GERMANY - Zwolfzhen FRIDAY, JULY 3 - FRANKFURT, GERMANY - Das Bett (Moonshake Party) SATURDAY, JULY 4 - PARIS, FRANCE - La Maroquinerie

More Confirmations: 4 September 2009 The Urges - Born out of suburban frustration The Urges started out in a damp Dublin garage and they can be best described as the missing link between those old titans of the 60’s and the ’Paisley Underground’ of the 80’s.

There is an international flavour to our next date with the fuzz. From Leicester ride The Junipers, bringing expertly crafted pop-sike to melt your heart and soothe your mind. In support are Funny Dunny from the south of Italy, who play revved-up garage-punk to make you dance and scream, and finally Londoners Thee Landells provide us with hypnotic blasts of understated punkadelica. You’re in for a treat with the guest DJs - vinyl obsessive Jens (aka Wickerman) comes from deepest Sweden to freak you out on the dancefloor, whilst Sardinian and Caper Story bassist Claudio supplies the blue-eyed soul and eurobeat goodness.

Si, me parece muy bien esta ciudad! Muchas gracias! ELECTRIC BOOGIE SHOW said:

hola michelle!

valencia es la ciudad en q he crecido, he visto muchos cambios, algunos buenos y otros malos, pero sigue conservando un clima estupendo, gente agradable, calles bonitas, playas y buena gastronomía... y sí, tb rock and roll!! todas las semanas hay programados varios conciertos, aunque lamentablemente con no mucho público, y tb hay teatro, galerías de arte y mucha actividad cultural, y no es tan estresante como madrid o barcelona, pero tampoco tan grande... te convence?
