It's been a while

Hello Boys and Girls, It's George here again! Wow, 2 months of nothing! What am I like?

The show is back! And I have to admit the blog has been on the back burner since I started my production company. But I come bearing good news....

THE SONICS ARE PLAYING MANCHESTER!!!!!! Yes, that's right and you can order tickets here. I'm hoping to secure an Interview with the band and get them to answer all those burning questions we wanted to ask when they played London last year.

Right anyway here is a link to the latest music video I directed for a loverly group called 'The Systematics' Check out ....IT HURTS

Beach Boys release new single/album

Hello chaps, Not only have The Beach Boys re-united but they're releasing the first brand new single in 30 years.  


I'm not keen on the title 'That's why God made the radio', Man made the radio maaaaan. However, it's the best sounding achievement post 1970's that they've done. I'm a sucker for those sweet harmonies and it's got a wall of sound vibe, sadly it doesn't seem to be as guitar heavy as i'd have liked.

RIP Davy Jones

I've just heard the sad news that Davy Jones has passed away. He has died of a heart attack aged 66, he grew up in Manchester, same area as my mums family and when I interviewed him last year I found him to be a completely charming and witty individual.  


Here's a link to my in-depth chat I had with him about The Monkees, Head, his solo work and what was then, his future recording. 






RIP Davy Jones 30 December 1945 – 29 February 2012
