Brixton Gig Cancelled

admin — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 12:52:49 +0000

Unfortunately we have had to cancel the gig with Alabama 3 on 12 March due to circumstances beyond our control. We have, to put it politely, been messed around and deceived by the organisers.

Those of you that ordered tickets through Brilliant Music will be contacted in the next few days about refunds.

Rosebud is a song partly inspired by the movie Citizen Kane, and partly inspired by Phil Wilding’s new novel “Cross Country Murder Song” which was out on Feb 25th and in my humble opinion, is simply brilliant.

If you don’t know Phil, he is to be spotted on the recent video interview footage from the 100 Club. Phil is the shy, retiring individual towards the middle and at the end of the video, very difficult to get him to talk, but eventually he managed a few reluctant words. He has a barely noticeable welsh accent and after some intense pressure he finally sheepishly agreed to plug his book.

Anyway, rather than hold this track back for some future album we decided to give it to you as soon as it was. It can be downloaded from our Bandacmp.

Following the gig at the 100 Club we have had requests to make this song available again.

Written as the title music for the BBC2 comedy documentary “The Cup”, which took a wry look at the world of kids football and the pushy parents trying to live out their own dreams through the lives of their children, this full length song version of the title music veers away from the story behind the show and looks instead at the strange behaviour of the football fan.

Beautiful Game is available as a FREE download – in a multitude of formats – from our Bandcamp.
