TRAMLINES HEADLINERS ECHO THE SOUND OF THE CITY The line-up for Tramlines 2010, Sheffield’s free urban music festival, is announced today (Tuesday 11th May). Although Tramlines is only in its second year, 250 acts across four stages and 50 city centre venues prove that it is already established as a major force on the UK festival scene. Headliners include; Echo and the Bunnymen, Mystery Jets, Simian Mobile Disco DJ set, Future of the Left, Darwin Deez, The King Blues, The Hoosiers, Craig David, Dum Dum Girls, Annie Mac and Toddla T. Festival organisers are hoping to double last year’s attendance of 35,000 with the Main Stage

on Devonshire Green having an increased capacity of 8,000. Tramlines, however, is about a lot more than big headline acts. The festival extends across the entire city to showcase every aspect of Sheffield’s music community and includes a Youth Music Festival, Blues trail and a Ceilidh. The special relationships the festival organisers have forged with Hallam FM, Sheffield City Council and Drowned in Sound have contributed to a vast and hugely diverse line-up. New venues joining Tramlines for the first time include the O2 Academy, which plays host to Ollie Hayes and special guests with Hallam FM on Saturday

night. The Leadmill celebrates its first year in the festival fold with a return of Focus. There is also a brand new platform, The New Music Stage outside City Hall, which features Blood Red Shoes, and Chapel Club, all under the Drowned in Sound banner. Drowned in Sound will also be hosting nights at The Harley and The Foundry. One of last year’s star curators, Toddla T, returns to head up an all-star line-up at the Octagon, where Toddla will do battle with Annie Mac, Mary Anne-Hobbs and Oris Jay. Also on a dance theme, Simian Mobile Disco promise to shake the foundations of DQ on Friday with one of their legendary

DJ sets. Although the full line-up is yet to be announced, many music lovers from all over the UK are already planning their summer trip to Tramlines. Travel South Yorkshire is lending its support, with schemes to bring visitors in from the outskirts of Sheffield and beyond. Student housing group Unite has signed up as accommodation partner for the festival, offering student digs for £30 per person per night. James O’Hara, one of the Festival Organisers at Tramlines, said: “We are expecting Tramlines to attract about twice as many people this year as it did last, so we have had a chance to really reach out to more venues. Many of the

big venues and clubs are now involved, including The O2 Academy, The Leadmill, Corporation and DQ. Sheffield University has given us the Fusion & Foundry, The Octagon and The Raynor Lounge. The West End, S1, Rise at The Hallamshire and The Red House have also joined us. It should be huge!” With the support of Sheffield Is My Planet, Tramlines will also be taking its first substantial green footsteps this year. Alongside a host of green initiatives being developed for the festival, we will be hosting a Solar Powered Disco for 400 lucky revellers. The record number of venues will also be

matched by a record number of local traders. There are currently over 40 Sheffield traders, including caterers, clothing retailers and much more. Festival co-founder Sarah Nulty sums it up: “We are all really excited about this year’s event. The line-up is brilliant – bigger than last year’s and really well balanced. The enthusiasm in the city for the festival is making everything so much easier this year. We reckon we are on for a fantastic party! Our aim as a festival is to offer something for everyone, and we also hope that

everyone enjoys hearing something they may not usually listen to. With so many venues joining in, we think we are a little bit closer to our aim. Can’t wait!” For the latest information check out www. tramlines.org.uk

COPLEY’S COLUMN After all the speculation about the general election we finished up with the second worst result imaginable, a hung parliament, with David Cameron and the Conservatives falling just twenty seats short of the three hundred and twenty six seats required for an overall majority, leaving our own Little Lord Fauntleroy, Nick Clegg and the Liberal Democrats, holding the balance of power. This situation is ridiculous, with Clegg, in a very strong position , playing one party against the other. Of course, the position changes by the hour, and the Labour Party, trounced in the election, now have the temerity to try to get back in through the back door with an alliance with Nick Clegg. One good thing to come out of this is that the Lib Dems refused to negotiate whilst Gordon Brown was leader of the party, and as a result he has resigned. At least we have got rid of the brown stuff. Former Labour Home Secretary, John Reid, a man I always respected, has publicly stated that a Lab Lib alliance

would be disastrous, for both parties and the future of the country. There speaks a man of wisdom, much pity that he has retired. Hopefully by the time of publication, the situation will have been resolved. I am usually reluctant to report on acts I have seen on my travels, leaving it to others, but I make an exception this week, as I have had two great nights out. On Thursday, I went to the White Swan in Dronfield, where Firecracker, an excellent band were appearing. This amazing four piece band, comprising Chris Firminger, James Scanlan, Carl Baker and Matt Broughton always fill the venue, playing a great mixture of material. Landlords should book them, customers should go and see them. On Saturday night, I went to see my good pal, Adrian Fazackerley, owner of the Dusty Miller in Barlborough, where the entertainment was provided by Phil Collins tribute artiste, Andrew James, who was both vocally proficient at the same time being very entertaining with quick costume changes. Billy Flywheel, as his alter

ego Frank Plank, has written a fantstic song for the World Cup, which features himself on vocals, and Paul Carrack’s lead guitarist, Chris Garfield providing the music. This very catchy tune has been produced by ex Jimmy James’ Vagabond, Alan Kirk. Billy kindly invited me to appear on the promotional video, shot at Hilltop Club by Nick Johnson. I predict a big hit here, which could land me on top of the pops. Jack Bromley, only son of Caron, my girlfriend, was nine years old on Saturday, and we celebrated with a pool party at Brampton Manor. Another notable birthday this week occurs on Friday, when my twin daughters are sixteen. Happy birthday, Elizabeth and Hannah. Your dad can’t wait to celebrate this milestone birthday with you, and really spoil you. I shall be honouring my pledge of fifty pounds to Help for Heroes at the Forest on Friday, where top of the bill, my favourite comedian Jimmy Carol, should guarantee another great night with Gary Phillips.

Live Nation is proud to announce that Britain’s bestloved rockers Status Quo will undertake a 28 date UK Winter tour in 2010 stopping off at Sheffield Arena on Wednesday 15th December. Tickets, priced £34.50 (booking fee may apply) go on sale at 9am on Friday 14th May. Support at the Sheffield show will be legendary rocker Joe Brown. With shows in 15 countries already confirmed for 2010, Quo are gearing up for yet another hard-rocking year. In the Autumn of this year, the band will surprise many of their fans with a special record release, but there is no doubt that by the time the Winter tour starts the band will truly be firing on all cylinders. Francis Rossi said, “We cannot wait for the UK Winter dates. We’ve been halfway round the world already in 2010, so it will be great to get out on stage in front of our unbelievable home crowds. Playing in the UK is so special to us.” Rick Parfitt added, “It doesn’t matter how many thousands of miles we’ve done on the bus, by the time the tour starts in Southend we’ll be ready to rock – see you there!”

Last year, Status Quo were, for the second year running, crowned as Britain’s hardest-working band in the Arena Venues category by the PRS (Performing Right Society). With over 40 years of hardgigging behind them, Quo know better than almost anyone how to put on a show and seriously get the crowd rocking. With ‘Quid Pro Quo’ meaning an exchange of one item for another of value, Status Quo will trade one entrance ticket for one killer show packed full of hits and favourites from the last five decades. Support on some shows [see over] is from Joe Brown. Acclaimed by many as Britain’s greatest rock n roll band, Quo were even recognised by the Queen with OBEs this year, these Winter 2010 UK dates are not to be missed. Tickets for the Sheffield Arena show go on general sale at 9am on Friday 14th May, priced £34.50 (booking fee may apply) in person at the Arena Box Office, by phone on 0114 256 5656 or online at www.sheffieldarena.co.uk or www.arenaticketshop.co.uk

Between whirlwind and lull, prowess and poetry, Saltimbanco takes spectators on an allegorical and acrobatic journey into the heart of the city. Following the critically acclaimed UK tour of Quidam , Cirque Du Soleil, is to return to the UK with an arena tour of its vibrant signature production SALTIMBANCO, created by Franco Dragone. This timeless Cirque opus hits the UK Arenas for the first time with a series of exclusive shows opening up in Sheffield for 5 shows from Thursday 20th until Sunday 23rd May 2010. Tickets, priced £40 & £50 (subject to booking fee) are now on sale from the Sheffield Arena Box Office on 0114 256 56 56, online at www.sheffieldarena.co.uk and in person at the Sheffield Arena. Saltimbanco is Cirque du Soleil’s longest running major touring show which has toured the world since 1992 to wide-spread acclaim and has enjoyed sell-out success across the world in Europe, North and South America, Australia, Japan, and New Zealand performing to over 11 million fans. In the UK, The Times hailed the show “Gracefully athletic theatre” , America’s Variety Magazine added “Human exuberance and physicality, the performers enthrall with one act after another””, whilst the New York Times was equal in its praise stating “Myth meets magic...... An unearthly mixture of commedia dell’arte and rock-concert razzle....” Classic Cirque at its best, Saltimbanco is a thrilling and kaleidoscopic celebration of awe inspiring artistry and agility. It features breathtaking acrobatics and unbelievable athleticism during solo spotlights and epic ensembles. With a cast of over 50 high-caliber artists hailing from 20 countries Saltimbanco is set to enthrall. From the seemingly impossible balancing, jumping and spinning during the Chinese Poles or the Russian Swing to the gravity-defying Bungees and Trapeze, the crowd pleasing Juggling and Acrobatic Bicycle, to the celebrated and very unique Clowns. Technical expertise and extravagant design are woven together by uplifting spectacular costumes, amazing lighting, humour and enchanting music and magic. Full of colour, amusement and amazement, Saltimbanco is a fun show for the whole family to enjoy. Saltimbanco —from the Italian “saltare in banco,” which literally means “to jump on a bench”— explores the urban experience in all its myriad forms: the people who live there, their idiosyncra-

sies and likenesses, families and groups, the hustle and bustle of the street and the towering heights of skyscrapers. A signature show, it is inspired by the urban fabric of the metropolis and its colourful inhabitants. Decidedly baroque in its visual vocabulary, the show’s eclectic cast of characters draws spectators into a fanciful, dreamlike world, an imaginary city where diversity is a cause for hope. Phil Bowdery, President Of Touring at Live Nation, promoters of the show commented: “We are thrilled to be bringing Saltimbanco to cities across the UK. The show is a signature Cirque du Soleil sensation, it’s a vibrant, uplifting, colorful show, one of the most prolific in Cirque’s repertoire. Created as an antidote to the violence and despair, this phantasmagorical show proposes a new vision of urbanity, overflowing with optimism and happiness.” The world premiere of Saltimbanco was held in Montreal on April 23, 1992 and featured a cast of 36 performers. During its 14-year tour under the big top, the show visited some 75 cities on five continents, for a total of more than 4,000 performances given before a combined audience of over 11 million people worldwide. In 2007, Saltimbanco has been reconfigured for a new venue— large arenas. Over a period of 21 weeks, the show was restaged to adapt to the new venue size: the stage on which the artists perform was raised and the sound and lighting was adjusted to the new environment. The Saltimbanco tour will stop in about 40 cities each year, with a message that is as relevant and powerful today as it was when the show was created. Saltimbanco can now be presented to 4,000 to 5,000 spectators every night with the same feeling of intimacy as it had under the big top. Tickets for the Sheffield Arena engagement, 20th-23rd May 2010, are now on general sale priced £40 & £50 (subject to booking fee). Tickets available online at www.sheffieldarena.co.uk, in person at the venue box office or through the ticket hotline on 0114 256 56 56.

Weekly Wit

THE UNHAPPY WIFE An unhappy wife was complaining about her husband spending all his free time in a bar, so one night he took her along with him. “What’ll you have?” he asked. “Oh, I don’t know. The same as you I suppose,” she replied. So, the husband ordered a couple of Jack Daniel’s and threw his down in one shot. His wife watched him, then took a sip from her glass and immediately spat it out. “Yuck, that’s TERRIBLE!” she spluttered. “I don’t know how you can drink this stuff!” “Well, there you go,” cried the husband. “And you think I’m out enjoying myself every night!” CATCHING OUT THE BARMAN The bartender asks the guy sitting at the bar, “What’ll you have?” The guy answers, “A scotch, please.” The bartender hands him the drink, and says “That’ll be five dollars,” The guy replies, “What are you talking about? I don’t owe you anything for this.” A lawyer, sitting nearby and overhearing the conversation, then says to the bartender, “You know, he’s got you there. In the original offer, which constitutes a binding contract upon acceptance, there was no stipulation of remuneration.” The bartender was not impressed, but says to the guy, “Okay, you beat me for a drink. But don’t ever let me catch you in here again.” The next day, same guy walks into the bar. Bartender says, “What the heck are you doing in here? I can’t believe you’ve got the audacity to come back!” The guy says, “What are you talking about? I’ve never been in this place in my life!” The bartender replies, “I’m very sorry, but this is uncanny. You must have a double.” To which the guy replies, “Thank you. Make it a scotch.” EQUAL RIGHTS Two guys are sat at the bar. The first one says, “My wife should be on the plane now.” “Sounds nice” the other replied, “Where’s she going?” “Nowhere” says the first, “She’s fitting a new bedroom door!”

DONʼT GO BREAKING MY HEART! They say to never take life too seriously and to live for the moment, which is exactly what Canadian band “Blessed By A Broken Heart” is all about. Their unique, infectious brand of vintage tinged madness is undeniable, and they deliver a plethora of balls-out rock anthems that are so catchy, they will soon be your new guilty pleasure. This could be best described as a modern day version of Motley Crue meets Journey and guitarist Shred Sean is destined to become one of the most talked about players in the genre with his Yngwie-like licks and bombastic shredding techniques. If you are not on board after one listen to their appropriately titled Century Media debut album, “Pedal To The Metal”, you will quickly ﬁnd yourself sneaking onto the bandwagon. The band encompasses pure rock n’ roll excess, which was further displayed as they purchased their own bus and drove it into the ground throughout numerous tours gaining legions of fans at every stop which is where the band caught the attention of Century Media execs with their DIY laser/light show and undeniably energetic and captivating live performance. The buzz has seen the band play a sold-out UK headlining tour with Enter Shikari in 2006 as well as a highly successful full European tour with Bring Me The Horizon, Architects and Maroon in January and February of 2008. Now the band are back in the UK and they arrive in Shefﬁeld with a gig at the Corp on the 18th. The 80s are making a big comeback especially in the pop world and maybe just maybe the rock world is now picking up on this vibe. I have a feeling; “Feel good rock n’ roll is back!” Blessed By A Broken Heart + LoveHateHero + The First + The Morning After: The Corporation, Tuesday 18th May, £10.00 adv., Doors 7:00PM, age 14+

reviews by presley artist: Deftones single: Diamond Eyes May release date: Out 17th One of the most respected and enduring forces in Rock Music, Deftones return with the release of this, their 6th studio album. I was excited………… I love Deftones. One of those rare ‘original’ Rock bands. No-one else sounds quite like them. They have the ability to be extremely heavy at times but keep their melody. ‘Rocketskates’ which is the ﬁrst single of this album is unique to the extreme. It’s ridiculously heavy! But then has this distorted melancholic vocal slapped on it. It’s probably the most forward looking tune I’ve heard since Nine Inch Nails ‘The Downward Spiral’. It’s a punishing tune and it’s the perfect introduction to this album. The rest of the album follows the same path but has, again, a lot of incredible melody throughout. I urge you, if you like your music heavy, to check out either ‘Rocketskates’ or the title tune ‘Diamond Eyes’ and if you like them then you’ll love the album. Prepare to headbang!!

artist: Gorillaz single: Superfast Jellyfish release date: Out 17th May

The follow up single to the amazingly brilliant ‘Stylo’. The album ‘Plastic Beach’ is very eclectic, it oozes inﬂuences from almost every musical genre that you can you think of. This has a Rap as the opening vocal, then goes into that cool Blur-esque laidback vocal that Damon Albarn does so well, then we get a bit of French synth-pop ala Air. Everything this band does is cool, the riffs, the sounds. They make me like Rap!! Now that shows you how good they are! Check it!

YOUR WEEKLY

HOROSCOPES by Deborah Turner-Broadhead Aries 20 March - 20 April At long last planet Mercury goes direct today giving you a green light to complete any outstanding projects or to begin working towards new goals. The key here is to be spontaneous so that you are able to capitalise on any opportunities that come your way. However, you must make time for personal relationships as a lack of communication in this area of your life could cause a lot of confusion. Angel Message - Open your heart to love so that love can be open to you. Taurus 21 April - 20 May It’s all about preparation this week as Friday’s new moon brings new opportunities onto the horizon and forebodes a very lucky time for you. You will be happy to know that, with a little help from Mercury (currently stationed in your sign), any issues you have encountered over the last few weeks will be resolved. Rewards are yours for the taking so long as you are prepared to put in the necessary hard work. Angel Message - Learn from your past experiences and grow from them. Gemini 21 May - 20 June Financially what a great week for speculations and opportunities. Yes, it really is a time to take risks and go where angels fear to tread. However, in your personal dealings you will have to be more courteous as Mercury the planet of communication is heavily influencing your sign. It is causing mixed signals and confusion and as a result you should expect the unexpected but also take responsibility for your actions as any superficial remarks could land you in hot water. Angel Message - Visualise success to achieve a positive outcome. Cancer 21 June - 21 July It’s all systems go this week as the new moon on Friday brings about many delightful surprises. The reclusive feelings you have been experiencing will fade away as you start to come out of your shell and rejoin the world once again. This weekend looks really promising as personal relationships reach a deeper level and you start to let your hair down and have more fun. Even though there are several cycles changing in your life, note that with courage, these transitions will all go smoothly. Angel Message - It is time to be the star of your own show. Leo 22 July - 22 August Leo, are you like a caged lion waiting for news or for someone to call? Well, whether it’s personal or work related I feel that by Friday your wait will be over. This weekend is very significant for you, especially where socialising is concerned and in true Leo fashion you certainly know how to steal the show! So be bold, be brave and dare to dream. Angel Message - Do not hold back as now is your time to soar! Virgo 22 August - 21 September Don’t leave anything to chance this week as your drive and determination will influence the outcome. Listen to a partner or close friend as their support will be valuable and could truly help you to achieve even more. The new moon on Friday makes things much clearer. You will be made aware of all options available to you and the actions you will need to take to achieve your goals. Angel Message - I do without doing and every thing gets done.

Libra 20 September - 21 October You may feel like other people are making the decisions for you, which will certainly ruffle those Libran feathers. Decisions are needed as many life changes are taking place regardless of the restrictions you are now feeling. Fate has a habit of sabotaging your plans by throwing unexpected issues your way. However, do keep your eyes on the ball and still be sure to seize those opportunities when they arise or you will always be wondering - what if ?... Angel Message Have faith that everything will work out beautifully. Scorpio 27 October - 21 November A number of minor irritations occur this week leaving you questioning whether a long term project is worth the hassle. It very much feels like a one step forwards three steps back scenario. Despite this, many new people come into your life to give you support and raise your spirits. Self-reflection is needed here to see what it is that’s really holding you back. Angel Message - The answers you seek are in your heart. Sagittarius 21 November - 21 December You have much to be pleased about this week as socialising is top of your agenda. It seems like it is all systems go this weekend as travel is imminent along with events, parties and even more gatherings. It is great that you are spontaneous and able to keep up with all the demands put on you - However, please watch your spending as there will be financial consequences for your indulgences later on. Angel Message - Be clear about what you want and have faith that you will achieve it. Capricorn December- 20 January There may be a few power struggles this week but take heart as by the new moon on Friday all the niggling difficulties of the past few weeks will dissolve. You will feel renewed and ready to embark on your goals once again. You may be also be a little judgemental of yourself but please don’t be. You know that you will always succeed in the end. Angel Message - Have faith in your natural abilities and stay true to yourself. Aquarius 21 January - 19 February A life review is in order! You really do need to free up your precious time in order to accomplish your heart felt goals and this means changes to both your domestic and work life. The sacrifices you make now will pay dividends in the future and like all journeys and changes it must start with one step. Angel Message - Express your divine creativity and dare to dream. Pisces 19 February - 20 March When you feel irritated and unsettled emotions arise which bring much confusion to the surface. You can’t change the past so don’t waste your energy on any negativity. Instead be constructive and await the wonderful opportunities that will be apparent soon. A new, fresh approach is needed. Angel Message - Let go of worries and feel the joy in your heart.

A weekly column written by International Medium, Author & Visionary Joanne Gregory

ASK AND IT WILL HAPPEN As regular readers will know, I believe that you can have anything you want during this earthly life. You can meet and marry your soul mate; you can drive the Bentley continental and live at the desirable address. Property or holidays abroad are easy to acquire and the job and income of your dreams are only just a few simple steps away. Happiness is your birth right and so the things that make you happy are also rightfully yours, whatever that is. The universe is constructed in such a way that happiness is automatically on its way to us, but we create blockages every day. Even so, if there is anything missing in your life it doesn’t have to stay that way. Many of the articles I have written for the Mercury have been based around my understanding of the universe and the process we can follow to re-align ourselves with the universe and access our birthright of happiness and abundance. Through a process sometimes known as cosmic ordering we can set our intention to receive all that we deserve and I am living proof that it works. It has, and always will be, my ambition to share what I have learned with as many people as possible, so I have written much of it down within this publication and all of it down within my new book ‘ask and it will happen!’ ‘Ask and it will happen’, hold all the information I have gathered and all that you will need to know to create the life you really want. This practi-

cal and concise book comes with a set of 52 beautifully illustrated cards. Each card depicts an essential manifestation tool. Each tool if implemented will bring the readers energy in line with that of the universe making miracles possible, change inevitable and success guaranteed. Tarot divination and intention focusing techniques come together as a card is drawn from the pack each day, week or month, giving the reader a clear perspective of how they can develop their relationship with the universe and bring all they desire to them. Each tool when implemented will help the reader to utilise their birthright ability to manifest. If I say so myself, the book is lovely to look at and a joy to work with and I’m telling you all about it in the hope that you will give it a try. Whatever you want or need you can

FOCUS HEADLINING AT THE LEADMILL The Mercury Newspaper is delighted to weclome Dutch progressive Rock Giants FOCUS to the Leadmill on July 23rd in collaboration with the Tramlines Festival. They will be reprising the famous ‘Live at the Rainbow’ gig which was broadcast in it’s entireity on the Old Grey Whistle Test. This was released as a live album by Focus. Anyone that saw the early

band would have been mesmerised by the ability of the musicians and they managed to combine the classical influence with rock and jazz based figures with great melodies. Focus were massive and rightly so. They burst on the scene with the world wide hit Hocus Pocus with an unlikely, yet dramatic, feature of organist, flautist, vocalist, Thijs van Leer yodelling between instrumental breaks. The guitar

ﬁgure is instantly recognisable even if you have never heard or seen the band. This was soon followed by the smash hit Sylvia which was a guitar instrumental. Despite having two hit singles FOCUS were a band that sold albums by the millions and their unique and very listenable style of progressive rock made them more accessible than some of the other bands around at the time such as YES and ELP.

Unusually the concert started with one of their best and most melodic tracks Focus 3 which starts off very quietly and in and understated way building to a fantastic guitar based melody. These were early days and most of the tracks featured come from their ﬁrst 3 albums. The audience will be treated to some of the ﬁnest progressive rock ever recorded with the band playing Hocus

PAUL WALKER’s CLUBSCENE FREEDOM

The debate continues about acts and fees and I have had some interesting feedback this week, especially from people who feel that their own club has been missing out on the top acts that are currently playing the circuit. Views are split – some are saying that they would happily pay for tickets – if

GALA CHARITY EVENT My ﬁrst Charity Event took place on Bank Holiday Monday, at the Gala Club at Wadsley Bridge. The fun started at the door, when manager David greeted me in a gold sequinned jacket, frilly shirt and gold platform boots. The evening was in aid of Treetops House, a charity that deserves a much higher proﬁle. They provide accommodation and

HELP FOR HEROES AT SKELLOW My second Charity Event of the week took place on Friday, at Skellow Grange Club in Doncaster, in aid of Help For Heroes. First up was a band new to me, by the name of Monkey Dust, a tremendous fourpiece who rocked through a set including The Killers, Feeder and The Fratellis before closing with a great send-up of Oasis. They gave

not every week, then at least once a month. Some have quoted the Mercury Shows and recognise that they represent real value for money for a great night out! Others feel that having paid their membership fees, they should not be expected to pay again. I can sympathise with both opinions to some extent, but these are hard times!

facilities for up to thirteen families to live in the Children’s Hospital and be near kids who are receiving long-term hospital care. In Shefﬁeld we are fortunate that one of only seven of such facilities is based here. They are open 365 days a year and provide a complete living environment completely free of charge to the families, and relies totally on voluntary funding to continue their support. Nicola (who I was privileged to meet on the night) and her colleagues raise over £60,000 per year to ensure that the home can continue to run and provide vital support. The evening was rounded off by Paul Summers’ the night a great opening and set the tone. They can be booked through IMA. Next up was another new face, comedienne Elaine King. She can best be described as “up-front” during her opening song - “I am what I am” before savaging the males in the audience – much to the amusement of the ladies present! Sufﬁce to say that if you go along to see her, do not make the mistake an old rocker friend of mine made, by wearing a purple t-shirt. I was privileged to perform a few rock songs myself, before giving way to the fabulous Men’s Club. With new face Chris on the drums,

If the members truly want their clubs to not only survive but prosper, surely they must eventually realise that a few pounds a year in membership will not be enough to guarantee its future. Send us your thoughts and views – and let’s try to ﬁnd answers that help get Clubland back on the map!

With the General Election over and done with until we are forced into another by virtue of squabbling politicians, we are no nearer solving the pubs/clubs crisis forced upon us by the party which may soon be leaving Downing Street - thank God for that!

months ago that smoking in cars would be next in line for vilification and sure enough the RCP (Royal College of Physicians) duly popped up with much media attention and described just how deadly smoking in a car could be! Amazing! Some of the supposed facts and figures they came up with to support their allegations were simply laughable, but the fact was they got plenty of media coverage. Your guess is as good as mine. Freedom2Choose demand freedom of choice for all, not just non smokers. We will fight for smoking rooms/ares in pubs & clubs until we finally get them. By joining in with Smokers Music Festivals you can play your part-and have a damn good day/night out! Phil Johnson

Following on from the fabulous two girls at the Handsworth social club, “Symmetry” I didn’t think things could get much better. Well they did, ﬁve times better in fact in the shape of “Girls Alouder”. Woodhouse Mill WMC managed another sell out night on Friday the 7th with these girls who as you would expect from the name, were a ‘Girls Aloud’ tribute act. When I tell you that they were absolutely incredible it is in fact an understatement. The atmosphere in the club was electric, such was the excitement generated by this act. Good looking girls with fantastic voices, and also good dancers.Cover charge for this marvellous evening was £2. A few weeks ago one of the letters in your column was of the opinion that cover charges should not be applied. If a cover charge provides this quality of entertainment, I for one would happily pay double that amount. Where else can you get such excellent value for money? The Woodhouse Mill club keeps providing top quality entertainment and while ever they do, myself and my friends will be more than happy to support this friendly well run club. Keep up the good work and keep proving the stick- in-the- mud clubs wrong. Ian Bowen

to learn the secrets of sustainability over a 40 year period would do well to come along and see masters of their craft displaying extraordinary skill and musicianship. Personally I can’t wait.

ITʼS A KIND OF MAGIC Is this Planet Earth? Well here at the station we’re all getting excited about the Back to the 60s night supported by Magic which is taking place next Friday at Wadsley Bridge Working Mens Club. The line up includes some of the best tribute acts you could hope to see – Bootleg 60s, Fab 4 act ‘Beatles for sale’ and the UK’s premier Beach Boys tribute as well. Also, Yorkshire comedian Jimmy Carol is on the bill and there’ll be prizes for the best fancy dress too. If you’re one of our Magic VIPs, there’s also a free drink on arrival if you show your membership card, but if you’re not it’s easy to sign up and won’t cost a penny. Other benefits include discounts on cinema tickets, flowers and the prospect of winning even more prizes on the air. Find out more at magicam.co.uk On the breakfast show I also have free tickets to give away as well each morning right through out the week, so tune in and you could be a winner. Tickets are also still available by calling 0114 276 3701. Through out this week we’re also celebrating the release of two of Duran Duran’s early albums on CD. Seven and the ragged tiger – features Union of the snake, New moon on Monday and the 1984 no. 1 The reflex Plus, there’s the self titled album Duran Duran which features Planet earth, Girls on film and Careless memories. Just to listen across the day for one of the many the Duran Duran hit songs we’ll play, call in and you could win a free copy of either of the albums. You can also try your hand at winning either of these online. Again, the website address is magicam.co.uk

In Association with

I like things that make my life easier..... Fishing can be a time consuming business, and often before I even get to the bank, I’ve spent ages preparing bait, cleaning tackle and generally getting my act together the day before. This often includes doing the gardening and a man sized pile of ironing (3 shirts, 1 pair of socks and a pillowcase; time taken, 2 hours) before she who must be obeyed sanctions a day out angling. With this in mind, I’m always on the lookout for practical gadgets that lessen the time I spend sorting things out. To help me tie up terminal rigs, which is something I struggle to get right, I found this little smasher from ACE (Advanced Carp Fishing) and thought you might like to consider it. ‘Strip-Eaze’ coating removal tool. I bet you have lost count of the number of times you have tried to remove the outer layer from expensive coated, braided hook links unsuccessfully? I cannot believe the number of times I’ve cut, frayed or ruined the inner material when using scissors or nail clippers, or cut my ﬁngertips when using non-

existent finger nails! When I look in someone else’s rig wallet, each hook link is lined up immaculately, all the same length and perfectly formed, so how do they do it? When making up my rigs, and having spent ages getting everything just right, I normally finish off by cutting through the inner braiding or not taking off enough coating to allow me to finish the rig properly; ACE have come up with a dinky little tool to make stripping it back a lot easier. The ‘Strip-Eaze’ is part of the fantastic ‘Elements’ range comprising of various components designed to work together. It comprises an ergonomically manufactured handle with a stripping ‘blade’ set within to allow the tool to strip the outer coating away without damaging the inner core of the hook link. It is easy to use, the coated hook link is trapped by thumb pressure against the side of the handle and the coated material is then pulled into the stripping slot. By gripping

the tag end and applying gentle pressure to pull the tool along the hook link, it strips the outer layer away leaving the ﬂexible inner braid undamaged; simple! It comes in a choice of colours so you can pick it out at the bottom of your tackle box when you really need it and is available from good tackle stockists or online from www. acecarp.com ‘Strip-Eaze’ is one of those great little additions to any anglers’ kit. I will be reviewing lots of other items, shops, websites, ﬁsheries and baits over the next few weeks, so make sure you check out the column to see if there is something you can use to improve your chances or just give you more time on the venue to enjoy the sunshine!

Steelers Still Waiting on Calder

Owing to some technological problems that I won’t bore you with this week’s column is a very much shorter version than I had planned. Sticking with the value philosophy I hope that the selections below will oblige at decent each way prices. In the 1.40 on Wednesday I have it close between Peter Tchaikovsky and Call It On with slight preference for the former. In the 2.10 I reckon that Kaptain Kirkup has a good chance. In the Musidora at 2.40 I’m sweet on the chances of Jim Bolger’s Gold Bubbles who should be returned at a backable e/w price. There are plenty of dangers however, notably Cabaret, Cracking Lass, Bikini Babe and Pink Symphony. In the Duke of York Stakes half an hour later I reckon that Prime Defender has an excellent chance of following up his recent win at Haydock. On Thursday I think that the Dante can go to Dancing David, who is a very tasty 25/1 at present, but keep an eye on Aidan O’Brien’s pair Viscount Nelson and Cape Blanco. Viscount Nelson finished down the field in the Guineas when the race wasn’t really run to suit him but this should be a more suitable test. He is a reasonable price at present but I reckon that he is likely to go off not much shorter so wait until the day for your bet if you fancy him. The best chance in the Middleton Stakes looks to be held by Godolpin’s Flying Cloud. On Friday I have the Yorkshire Cup down to a match between Wajir and Merchant of Dubai. It is very close but I have a very marginal preference for Wajir. In the Michael Seely Stakes on the same card Agony and Ecstasy looks to have a more than average chance. Good luck with your investments!

Shefﬁeld Wednesday can conﬁrm details of their pre-season schedule ahead of the 2010/11 campaign. The Owls will head to Austria for an intense week of training in early July before returning home to face six games on the road, including trips to Grimsby, Darlington, Scunthorpe and

want it to come out in the middle of the season. “I’ve had a chat with the manager and he wished me all the best in whatever I come to do after football and I do think that now is the time to bow out.” Gray played a total of 600 senior appearances in all competitions, representing Sunderland, Celtic, Blackburn, Leeds, Wolves and Wednesday. He also stored three caps on the international stage with England. He continued: “I always said to myself that I wanted to carry on playing until the age of 35 and anything after that was a bonus. I got to my target and I have no regrets. I’ve had a fantastic career, met some tremendous people along the way and I’ve worked for some amazing clubs. “I’ve played 600 games in my career and that was a local rivals Barnsley. The team’s conﬁrmed schedule is as follows: Saturday 3 July Training camp in Austria Tuesday 13 July Stocksbridge Park Steels A (7.45) & Hallam FC A (7.45) Saturday 17 July Grimsby Town A (3.00) Tuesday 20 July

nice target to reach. But now I’m on the other side of the fence and I can go and meet the managers and players I have known down the years and have a different conversation, if you like. I can go to games and soak it all in without the pressure of needing to win football matches.” In terms of what comes next, Gray added: “I’ve started doing some media work and I’ll probably look down the lines of keeping that going. I would like to stay involved in football in some capacity and that will get me out of the house to go and watch games.” Everyone at Sheffield Wednesday would like to wish Michael all the very best for the future. Darlington A (7.30) Saturday 24 July Scunthorpe United A (3.00) Tuesday 27 July Barnsley A (7.45) Ticket price details for Wednesdayites will be confirmed in due course. The Owls’ League One campaign kicks off on Saturday 7 August, fixtures for which will be released in June.

While the majority of fans will want a big name transfer to signal our intent, the most important signatures we could get this summer will be from players already with us. As players returned to full ﬁtness towards the end of the 2009/10 season it became clear that we have the nucleus of a very good squad, full of defensive stability and attacking ﬂair. So I’d urge that while we do need a raft of solid Championship performers to bolster our options, the crux to our success could be in securing the old guard that has always served us so faithfully.
