Skindred - Weymouth Pavilion


One of the proudest moments of my life was watching some of these videos of last Sunday at one of the concerts I help organise with Hourglass Promotions. I'm very proud to be part of the global music community and to have given 600 odd people the time of their lives at a sold out show, it really makes all the stress and long hours worth it. It breaks my heart to think that next year the council intend to bulldoze the pavilion (which happens to have managed to survive both world wars) so they can build another huge car park RIGHT NEXT TO ANOTHER WHICH IS ALWAYS EMPTY!! Well, always except when we put on concerts like last Sunday...

please back our Save The Pavilion campaign if you can by clicking HERE, it would be much appreciated!

As Skindred may say "stand for something, or you'll fall for anything" lets stand up for the pavilion.

Now, weather or not your into the music, just check out these videos from side of stage to get a glimpse of what its all about!!













here is some of their studio material










Reggae/Metal with Punk influences.... from Wales... Why not? I think its awesome!

Churning The Earth's Flesh


I know I've neglected my blog for a while, but i promise I'll do my best to keep the art flowing from now on, but I'm a busy guy, sorry.

Here's something i did a while ago (I'll post my latest works once they have dried)

I combined multiple view
points as well as layers of separate places for this piece. A large amount of the spaces i was viewing were in the process of being ploughed.






Churning The Earth's Flesh - Acrylic, Charcoal and Chalk on Wood (MDF)







On a separate note I'd like to try to urge everyone to listen to Godspeed You! Black Emperor, who I'm finding incredibly inspiring at the moment. Stirringly ambient and evocative.
