What's on this week
Greetings Xmas shoppers and anti-consumerist resistors!

While we're here I may as well inform you on happenings for the whole Xmas and New Year period - that way I can relax over the silly season myself (relaxed = mash-up).

Thanks to all of you who made all this possible in the million different ways that you have. Here's looking forward to 2007.

Myspace of the day
This weeks myspace of the day goes to The Waheys, who recently have just got a mention on MTV by Kasabian who they supported. Kasabian is reported to have said they're the "greatest band ever" (sic)mainly because, allegedly, they trashed the stage. That been said The Waheys are actually a great fun band playing mod rock. We're not sure whether recent comments from Dan the lead singer that Mike Da hat used to change his nappies is going to ruin Mikes reputation or his own. We leave it for time to tell.
So whaddya waiting for? Go and check out "the greatest band ever".

Unity 14th November 2006
Despite three quarters of the band being sick and bad with the dreaded lurgies, the Playful Rays took the stage like professionals. The Playful rays are an all girl Punk pop band none of them over eighteen.
Blankit the heros of the pre gig jam session and post gig jam sessions which they enjoyed so much they promise to come back regularly. So if you missed them tonight you'll certainly have a chance to see them jam in the near future, blazing away on lead guitar, bass and drums.
Next week we have the Unity Christmas bash in the shape of our Beatle Stones and Elvis night. It's ceretainly captured the imagination of a load of people and promises to be a great fun night.

What's on this week
Greetings snow flurries and wintry showers!
The days are still getting shorter, and colder....but it's nearly solstice-time and then we can start the home run back towards summer fun and warmth! In the meantime things are going to get busy with Xmas and New Year just around the corner.
Let's have a look at what's on this week to distract you from the consumerist frenzy that is Xmas shopping.
As always if you would like to unsubscribe to this mail please reply "unsubscribe" thanks.
Wednesday
Wednesday nights is time for the weekly pixie folke open mic session at Lisboa (24 Lincoln Road) Doors open 9pm till late and entrance is free.
Thursday
Unity as Lisboa has the pleasure of hosting to young rock bands this week, Cambridge based punk rockers Blankit and young all-female boro band The Playful Rays. The jam session will start proceedings as always at 8pm and kick out is in the early hours after DJ Urb falls over from exhaustion (not likely). Entrance is £2 or £1 to Muddy members.
Or if you are in Stamford direction for the night check out Irene Rae at the Mi Familia Tapas Bar, where music starts at 9pm and entrance is free.
Or if you want to venture even further afield check out Opaque at Insomnia in Derby. Email opaque_moony@hotmail.com for more details.
Friday
The Glass Onion's acoustic night has the pleasure of having the wonderful Irene Rae (back on the scene after a few health problems - good to have you back around Ren). It's also an open mic session for the rest of the night so come along and bring your instruments and music!
Down the road in Bogarts local funkateers Point of Origin have their first Peterborough appearance after a long break due to bods being away at University - entrance is free and music starts at 9:30pm ish.....and there've been no rehearsals since September so if you want to see the band scared as f*ck this is your chance... :)
For an electronic tip Funktional return to Lisboa this Friday for another session of funky house. Door times are 9pm till 3am and entrance is £3. DJ Clark Fader is in da house for a hip-hop turntablist session this time around too! Booyah!
Around the corner in the Brewery Tap, Jules the DJ is bringing a Xmas Disco..... (I can't quite get over the naming of this one......reminds me a little bit too much of school.....sorry Jules!)
Saturday
After the success of their first party Psychedelic Breakdown are back with something bigger, longer and phatter (this sounds far too rude at this point). For the first time Lisboa has an extended licence allowing this party to run from 11pm till 7am!!!! Both floors of Lisboa will be open, decked out with copious amounts of UV decor (courtesy of Indigo Children, Mel Playskool and the Twit Twoo lovelies), and kitted with digital visuals. Music upstairs will be psy-trance and breaks, including on the line-up Craig H (from Point Red Records - the new breaks sub-label of Alchemy Records) and Jimmy Tango (hero of the East Anglian psychedelic scene). Downstairs will be deep house, minimal techno, dub and chill. Hot drinks and snacks will be available downstairs to keep you going too. Entrance is a mere snip at a fiver each - don't miss out.
And if you can't wait for all that fun, the pre-party for Psychedelic Breakdown will be taking place at The Glass Onion from 7pm till 11pm - with psy-chill from Bidbod and progressive psy-trance from Kendo. Entrance is free.
For a live band alternative the Brewery Tap is hosting the Brown Stripes.Entrance is free before 10pm.

Unity 7th December 2006
Unity continue to stage incredibly talented musicians. Below are the brilliant Micawber, who's sublime harmonies captivated the audience. These guys come from Oakham and play beautifully.
Ok from the sublime to the downright outrageous. The Juzzt have re-emerged with Rock and Roll Andy fronting the band in his own inimitable style. He is a God amongst men. Posturing on stage and frightening the front row of the audience. if nothing else he knows how to entertain and he does that very well.
What diverse line up we have tonight. Straight from Anthony Burgess's "A ClockWork Orange" we have "Columbian Necktie", brilliant alternative rock.
Don't forget next week we have the mighty "Blankit" and those cute little girlies with attitude "The Playful Rays", they might be girlies but they know how to rock.

Myspace of the day
Todays Myspace of the Day goes to Point Seven Pistol, not just because they've been working hard in the studio (Batcave) but because they've created some really great new tunes that rock.Three of them featured on their myspace page "Return","Burden" and "Push". I'm particularly biased towards the guys because they kindly allowed me to photograph their recording session and I was down in the dungeon with Jimmy while he was singing, banging my head on the roof and falling over boxes. So you've all got Point Seven pistol as friends on Myspace (if not why not), so isn't it about time you checked out what they've been doing recently. Then order a copy of their new long player. Well go on then what are you waiting for? They're just a click awayhttp://www.myspace.com/pointsevenpistol

Zodiac Party
Well there was a couple of cancellations for the Zodiac party. But that didn't stop us from having a great time with a fabulous line up of stars. And stars don't get bigger than the impossibly tall John LItchfield. 
Next up taking a short break from their world tour of Guildford Abi and Stacey.
It's those Sidearm boys again. Are they fantastic or what? I'd like to think that when they appear on Later with Jools Holland and headlining Glastonbury they'll still be the same old crazy guys we've known and loved for years.
I can't tell you what a pleasure it is to have the Neumes back in town. I want to take them home and feed them and keep them forever. I'll look after them, honest. So that's Eleanor, Charlotte and Emily (left to right in the bottom pics) with Tim and Amanda keeping things solid at the back.

Unity 30th November 2006
Tonights Unity was something special in that we featured "Some TCD" all the way from London and The Brackets who were playing their very 1st gig. Not forgetting all their loyal supporters who added to the brilliant vibe going on. Talking of loyal supporters here's a whole bunch of you having a great time.
Here's "Some TCD" That's Abi and Tristan, two lovely people, who's main forte is beautiful harmonies, and laid back tunes. Wow! we want them for next years Muddy Festival in the Troubadour tent.
What you've been waiting for pics of "The Brackets" playing their first ever gig to a packed house. We at Unity were really impressed with the performance, so much so, we're going to push to get them a slot on the Unity stage at next years Muddy Festival. Great band.
To round off the evening Richard and Abi played a set as Istari.
Don't forget Saturday night at Lisboa we have the wonderful "Neumes" all the way from oop north in Yorkshire. Three sisters who are going to blow you away with their jazz folk swing stylie thing. You can't pigeon hole them. Just come and listen. Also on stage, Unity favourites "Sidearm" you can not beat these boys for enthusiasm. Rock at it's most entertaining, also "Godfather" and "Radicus" two bands who recently have gone down a storm at Unity.
Next Thursday at Unity we have the very popular Columbian Necktie, Micawber (folk rock duo) and Juzzt (funkay) so there's something for everyone there. And it's still only £2 to get in. £1 with Muddy membership. You can't beat it for value for money. It's the UNity bargain pack for music lovers.
Rock on dudes.

Rock at it's most entertaining, also "Godfather" and "Radicus" two bands who recently have gone down a storm at Unity.
Next Thursday at Unity we have the very popular Columbian Necktie, Micawber (folk rock duo) and Juzzt (funkay) so there's something for everyone there. And it's still only £2 to get in. £1 with Muddy membership. You can't beat it for value for money. It's the UNity bargain pack for music lovers.
Rock on dudes.

Oh 'ello. Here we go again and what a right old bunch of reprobates we've got here for you. Not an ASBO between them. They're all lovely people. Here you are at Pixy Folks special night.

Aye oop its our Heather McVey (centre top of pic below) and Tammy Garcia.
Chomskis Chainsaw AKA Circus. Vince Nathan and Nick rocking it up with help from Jimmy D on drums.
