    The Old Wharf
    21 Oxford St.
    Digbeth, Birmingham B55NR
    United Kingdom
    Iron Man Records, Monkey Business, Ovation Music Management, Musoplex Studios and Badger Promotions are proud to present a Money Burning Live Music festival of Punk, Metal and Crust Music:

    Police Bastard will be playing songs from the new CD “It’s Good To Hate…” (Iron Man Records 2010) and a selection of tunes from Traumatized and perhaps a few choice covers too.

    Selfless will be supplying addicts with some 4 piece insane politically and socially charged hardcore punk crust grindcore lying somewhere between Black Flag/Heresy/Discharge…and War/System will be greeting punters with their own brand of political punk metal crust. The gig will be free to get in but we may have to pass a glass round at some point to find some cash to pay the sound engineer.

The Music Network is open to all on Thursday 24th June 2010

The Meeting will be lead this month by Mark Badger from 4pm til 6pm at Millennium Point, Curzon Street, Birmingham, B4 7XG

The Music Network, Birmingham, 2008

The Music Network organises a NETWORKING EVENT on the last Thursday of each month, for the benefit of music related businesses in the West Midlands region. If you have any involvement in music, come and talk about what you’re up to and meet some new people. These Networking events are about all things music in the region. They’re about helping you to teach yourself how to do it, by yourself, for yourself and encourages you to share the knowledge with others so they can do the same.  If you are a musician, a student, someone who works with musicians, represents musicians, has involvement with the music industry, or are looking to make new contacts…..the meeting will be useful.

If you have news to report, a presentation to give, an event to promote, any new points for discussion, a pitch to make, business cards or flyers to hand round, an appeal for help, advice or guidance or even if you just want the free tea and biscuits and some serious discussion…you are invited.

You can also post in by email any news or gig dates or press release information for inclusion on the website and for distribution through the mailing list and RSS feed. More details on the website.

There will be luxury chocolate biscuits and good coffee for all. There’s food and drink afterwards supplied by the creative networks too. Please pass this invite on to Musicians you know or anyone else who you think may benefit.

http://birminghammusicnetwork.com Come and Join us.
