HUNTING LODGE // DAGGER BROTHERS // GOBLIN COMB + STUFF!

Hunting Lodge
A very rare chance to see Hunting Lodge at The Cube. They will be playing with their original line up of "a bassist who pummels, pounds and slaps the fretboard like it had just jumped ahead of him at the taxi-rank, a bare-topped drummer solemnly thumping his skins like he was beating time on a Turkish slave-galley, the freeform guitar lines of an inept crack-addled Robert Fripp dragged mercilessly through a wasp farm and a vocalist whose squawks and screeches smack of the sugar-fix tantrums of a retarded 6-year old. All this combines to produce the effect of being yelled at by an alcoholic in a disco."

Dagger Brothers
"Testostrone fueled shock pop. Wham meets King Crimson. Wax thundering grease topguns. Big Break meets the Generation Game via the Big Breakfast."
http://www.myspace.com/thedaggerbrothers

Goblin Comb
Featuring members of Hunting Lodge, Dagger Brothers, and Cedric. "Free love triangle, sloppy vibrant free world noise music, rice and chips."

MEP recently set up our Just Giving account after becoming registered for Gift Aid.

Just Giving gives any potential fundraisers the chance to easily set up a page explaining how they're raising money, and have any donations made paid directly to the charity. Donating is simple, fast and totally secure. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity of your choice and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.

We are very pleased to announce that we have our first page up and running! It's been set up by our new friend, hero and all round good egg, Christine Lindop. Please take the time to have a look at her page here.


Here are the six heroic labours of Christine....

1) Read the first 600 pages of Ulysses. (Currently at page 330)

2) Walk the 18 mile (6 x 3) Rambler's walk around Bristol - a sprained ankle means this has now changed to: Make 6 mosaic lightcatchers

3) Make 6 balaclavas for sailors (3 now complete)

4) Make 6 loaves of bread from recipes I haven't used before and present them to people (3 done)

5) Memorise 6 poems (2 now memorised)

6) Make 60 seed bombs and distribute them round the unloved wastelands of Horfield. (ongoing)


Please show your support. Christine aims to raise £600 by her 60th Birthday on Christmas Eve 2009. She is one sixth of the way there already.... Dig deep.

Our love and respect to you Christine, from all here at the Malawi Education Project.

And thank you.
