Patrick Fitzgerald 'Irrelevant Battles' 1977




I Would like to thank Patrik Fitzgerald & bands like The Adverts for helping me
out when i was 17 , [1985] It was a time when my parents kicked me out and the only thing that
kept me going was music, i was homeless hanging around the Chelsea Potter in The Kings Rd
The Original Punks helped me out by introducing me bands like Peter and the Test Tube Babies,
Whilst i introduced them to bands like The Cramps, The Damned's" Smash it" up was a favourite
on the Potter's Jukebox the Chelsea gear market was still open it was the last years of The Kings Rd,
The Kings Rd that Dan Treacy sang about in "Part Time Punks"

Captain Beefheart RIP January 15, 1941 – December 17, 2010,
Captain Beefheart's Shinny Beast along with Tom Waits Rain Dogs, + Dr John's Gris Gris
changed my life i was 18 in 1988 and this friend at the time 6 years older than me brought me
these 3 Vinyl albums on the same day, Been a fan of Captain Beefheart + Tom Waits Since then
+ Early Dr John. Captain Beefheart is a legend also a fantastic Artist,
Hope young Acts become influenced by him and Sprinkle some much needed Voodoo on the English Music Scene

Important Alien Jazz Party @ Dingwalls announcement A Night of Bedlam




This event has been moved upstairs to the Dingwalls Bar, due to Dingwalls being unable to refuse a last minute booking from a major US artist.  Dingwalls has been been extremely apologetic for the inconvenience this has caused, and Alien Jazz Party has agreed to put on another event in their main venue, in March.  Meanwhile the show will go on with the same line up, with the exception of Benoit Viellefon and His Orchestra.
Line up  Top Shelf Jazz, The Zen Hussies, & DJ Sacha Dieu, Doors 7.30pm - 12.30 Dingwalls Bar
Middle Yard  Camden Lock London NW1 8AB,
Thanks to all the Artists involved for their support.

The Zen Hussies new album Troubled Feet

The Zen Hussies new album Troubled Feet can be heard on this link

along with the Albums Continental Adaptor & Flatfoot, Sharp suit,

The Troubled Feet album launch will be @ Dingwalls Oct 20 2010

If it’s ‘goodtime swingska boogaloo’ you need to give you extra pep towards the end of the night, look no further than the boundary-decimating Zen Hussies. No strangers to playing stamina-sapping five hour sets, imagine The Specials playing film noir soundtracks while wearing the widest of grins. As Venue Magazine put once proclaimed, The Hussies are “born showmen with one eye on the absurd play songs that lodge in the head like well-aimed bullets”
