Now I come to think about it, there is something of the Lenny Godber about Pete Doherty...
*koff*

I'll update the somewhat neglected entity that is the SoMC Events Calendar with the above gigs as and when I get a spare half an hour (depending on how the annual reorganisation of my sock drawer goes, it may take longer than anticipated as I'm easily distracted). The Events Calendar is, as I may let slip on the odd occasion, a useful resource for the idle gig monkey, packed as it sometimes is with local gigs like these...

Tonight's Waster will, for one night only, be an ultraviolet powered extravaganza featuring UV cannons, paint and glo-sticks. Things will start to glow at Portsmouth's Liquid Envy from 2200, with entrance only £1 before 2300 (£3 after).
The Talking Heads will be hosting a local band showcase this Sunday, 13th April, though details of the line-up has yet to be released. Doors open at 1930 and entrance is £3, with all profits being donated to the Hampshire Autistic Society and Southampton-based charity Scratch.
A final batch of tickets for the long sold out Isle of Wight Festival in June have been released via the website of festival sponsors BT. The 500 tickets are on sale for the original price of £130 (plus booking fee) and will be limited to four per customer. The line-up for the festival this year includes Kaiser Chiefs, Sex Pistols, The Police, N.E.R.D, KT Tunstall, The Enemy, The Zutons, Iggy & The Stooges, Starsailor, Delays, The Kooks, Kate Nash and The Wombats, all of whom will be performing on the main stage. In addition the festival this year will also boast a 'big top' tented stage, in which the likes of The Stranglers, The Duke Spirit, Sugababes, Feeder, New Young Pony Club, The Music, Curved Air and The Australian Pink Floyd will be found. And if you're still without a ticket don't worry; ITV2 will be broadcasting live from the festival this year.
The support acts for REM's Summer Tour, which includes a stop at The Rose Bowl in Southampton on Wednesday 27th August, have been announced. Editors and Guillemots will be providing the warm-up for the Atlanta legends, which makes a trip out to the backwoods of Hedge End more appealing I must confess. Tickets are still available from LiveNation, priced at £45 (plus booking fee).
Becky Jerams and Leigh Mary Stokes will be the guest artists at Roger Courtney's Open Mike Club tomorrow, Thursday 10th April, with the regular Open Mike session following at 2200 through to 0000. Doors open at 1900 at The Barn at The Milton Arms and admission is, as always, FREE!
And that's me done for another week; this afternoon I have mostly been listening to Guillemots, Bat For Lashes and Arcade Fire. Nice. Be sure to join me next week when I'll be hypnotizing chickens.
