Diamond Geezers

Mick Jones and Tony James continue to make free music available as Carbon/Silicon. The best of the new tracks, The Whole Truth, I've added to the Get On The Beam Jukebox (see sidebar). Check out their site for more. www.carbonsiliconinc.com

More old geezers now, a few pics from the Buzzcocks concert in Camden last Thursday. Koko is a really great venue, although just 5 yards from the stage the sound sucked for the main set, which was a shame since it was good for the support band (The Adored) and the encore.

Buzzcocks were on top form, seemed to be enjoying every minute of it and the vibe spread around the bouncing crowd.


After blasting through 7 tracks from the new flat-pack philosophy album they raced into their hits without pausing for breath.

How Pete Shelley can sing so many words so fast is beyond me. Steve Diggle (Guitar & Vocals), Tony Barber (Bass) and Phil Barker (Drums) provided the driving energy.

Low res mobile phone camera photos are of course going to come out fuzzy and blurred.




This is a bit frustrating but they can capture a moment well and even accidently look a bit arty!
