If you can, get along to Manchester’s Richard Goodall Gallery this Saturday, that’s the 17th, for a one off show/book release/signing from up and coming US-based artists Kathie Olivas, Brandt Peters, Colin Christian and Sas Christian. They’ll be in attendance so feel free to ask them dumb questions about their work between 12 and 5.

Long time pal, part-time Barista and full time lurker Russ-Wease-Hell has finally got the web portal for his Sketchstance fanzine up and running and amongst the nuggets of wisdom and doodlings on there is a graphic for an upcoming Hot Club De Paris shirt. And while their NME friendly, Cap N Jazz, barbershop stylings aren’t exactly my cup of tea, I can’t deny that firstly, they’re jolly nice chaps and secondly, that their latest fabric offering is truly epic. Oh sod it, I do kind of like a couple of their songs. Go visit them and Russ now. Niceness 1 - Cynicism 0
