Concerned that the UK has more than 20% of the world’s CCTV Cameras? Worried for the wellbeing of a nation addicted to television? Concerned your bank details have just been sold on ebay? Come explore some Orwellian themes with us and see if things will turn out alright in the end.

Join us on this entertaining journey of music and spoken word, spread across three stages with you in the middle of it all, loving every second. The continual mix of exciting and beguiling sounds will combine with theatre performers, set designers, dancers, poets, stand ups and a whole team of VJs – each adding their unique style to the mix.

Some of the acts appearing are:

SubSource

A frenetic concoction of Electro and BreakBeat executed with fearsome Punk Rock energy. SUBSOURCE are PUNKBREAKS. Subsource serve frenzied sermons of primeval beats and their live shows are controlled collisions of musical sub genres.

Stanley Brinks at The Jug of Ale, Moseley, Birmingham March 14th 2008

step forward the now Berlin-based Stanley Brinks. New single ‘Fox Trot’ is dark and broody, lurching forward like the pissed fall guy in a 1950s crime caper; Brinks’ lyrics are exquisite, slowly painting his story with effortless flamboyance (“My father was a doctor but he played the guitar/On the day that you are born you know who you are”). He states his intentions: “The only thing I learnt was what no-one said to me/You better live now and stop getting ready.” The results could prove intriguing.”

Review: “Having toured and recorded all over under different guises ranging from Ben Dope to Klaus Bong to John Andreas, this former member of the French anti-Folk Herman Dune trio has done it again: step forward the now Berlin-based Stanley Brinks. New single ‘Fox Trot’ is dark and broody, lurching forward like the pissed fall guy in a 1950s crime caper; Brinks’ lyrics are exquisite, slowly painting his story with effortless flamboyance (“My father was a doctor but he played the guitar/On the day that you are born you know who you are”).
