Stone the crows….its almost easter and it is definatly like christmas is a distant memory. For there be so much to get on with in 2012, not just my up and coming birthday and or the Olympics, But a special music weekend in Basildon with loads of Electronic bands from the area on the bill – BAS II is the name of the event, and so that inspired me to play a few of the acts due to be on the bill – Tenek, Ba5ic, Modivar and BLANCMANGE…. You read me right 80’s duo Blancmange will be headlining – So I tell you, May 4th can’t get here quick enough.
Twofers today was all about the material girl- Madonna, who has a bit hand in the new period movie about Wallace Simpson – the movie is called “WE’, and old Madonna only directs it – [ www.imdb.com/title/tt1536048/ ]
So we played two from Madonna: ‘Frozen’ and ‘Hung up’.
