    Jan 14 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press Sherlockians (and Holmesians) gathered in New York to celebrate the Great Detective's 160th birthday during the long weekend from Jan. 15 to Jan. 19. The festivities began with the traditional ASH Wednesday dinner sponsored by The Adventuresses of Sherlock Holmes at O'Casey's and continued with the Christopher Morley Walk led by Jim Cox and Dore Nash on Thursday morning, followed by the usual lunch at McSorley's. The Baker Street Irregulars' Distinguished Speaker at the Midtown Executive Club on Thursday evening was James O'Brien, author of THE SCIENTIFIC SHER- LOCK HOLMES: CRACKING THE CASE WITH SCIENCE & FORENSICS (2013); the title of his talk was "Reassessing Holmes the Scientist", and you will be able to read his paper in the next issue of The Baker Street Journal. The William Gillette Luncheon at Moran's was well attended, as always, and the Friends of Bogie's at Baker Street (Paul Singleton, Sarah Montague, and Andrew Joffe) entertained their audience with a tribute to an aged Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson. The luncheon also was the occasion for Al Gregory's presentation of the annual Jan Whimsey Award (named in memory of his wife Jan Stauber) honoring the most whimsical piece in The Serpentine Muse last year; the winners (Susan Rice and Mickey Fromkin) received certificates and shared a check for the Canonical sum of $221.17. And Otto Penzler's tradi- tional open house at the Mysterious Bookshop provided the usual opportuni- ties to browse and buy.

  • Doobie Bros. Incident
    These labels are designed to print on the NEATO 180955 pre-perforated cd labels & card stock! They include appoximately 1/4 inch extra “bleed” around the perforations, in order to account for small differences in printers and software issues. If you print these labels on PLAIN PAPER, you will need to trim the extra bleed area away or they will not fit. Additionally, you should print these with Adobe Acrobat 7 (older versions may not produce the correct results), and you MUST make sure that the PAGE SCALING option is set to “NONE”. If you have PAGE SCALING set to “Fit To Printer Margins” or “Reduce to Printer Margins”, the graphics will not print at the correct size for the standard jewel case.

    JOHN COWAN - SIXTY [DELUXE EDITION] Compass 4630 Release date: 8/26/14 1. The Things I Haven’t Done (Bruce Coughlan) Bruce Coughlan Music (SESAC) The opening track, by Bruce Coughlan, a talented singer-songwriter from British Columbia with whom I’ve had the privilege of collaborating over the years, captures the theme of Sixty: I’ve been blessed with an amazing life and career. As with most of us, my journey has not been without loss and sacrifice, but by and large, I’ve been able to make a living doing what I love. One of the joys in my life has been to sing on records of people I admire greatly. Singing on Rodney Crowell’s recordings since the landmark “Houston Kid,” has been a source of great pride and satisfaction for me. I was a fan of his long before our lives intersected and we became friends. Having Rod on this song means very much to me.

  • Almost Joined-Up Words from Our Old Gonzo Author Friend, Alan Dearling
    Hawkeaster: You wished you were there! Almost joined-up words from our old Gonzo author friend, Alan Dearling ‘So, who are Hawk-friends?’ someone asked during one of the two Q&A sessions with members of Hawkwind during the two day Hawkfest. ‘It’s you – all of you,’ was the loud and clear answer from Dave Brock and his merry band of musical mates. And the whole weekend was akin to a private party, held this year in the somewhat unlikely venue of Seaton in Devon’s old town hall, now run as the Gateway by a bunch of local worthies under the guise of Seaton’s Voice. Throughout the weekend Dave wandered around affably beaming at all his acolytes who had made their myriad ways from as far afield as Australia to join the party. But then there was a logic in this location - Seaton is the town closest to the farm where Dave lives. I set up my little tent at the Manor Farm camp site up on the hillside overlooking Seaton and Lyme Bay. Magnificent views. A bit of a clamber back after a long day of sonic space rock, but a friendly site and for those who could afford it, there was accommodation in Eve’s tipis, shipped over specially from the Isle of Wight. Hawkfests are eagerly looked forward to by the loyal fans, many of whom are now well into being bus pass delinquents. But there were some younger space cadets along for the cosmic adventures too. And lots of friendly local volunteers like my mate Phil, who mostly ‘stewarded’ the stage-right exit door against any would-be, axe or sword wielding warriors on the edge of time who wanted to escape! I think many of the volunteers were both bemused and a little surprised at the ‘niceness’ of the weird hippy invasion that had flooded into their usually rather staid little town.

  • BULLET for MY VALENTINE 15. November 2016 Ludwigsburg MHP Arena
    BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE 15. November 2016 Ludwigsburg MHP Arena Gäste: Killswitch Engage, Cane Hill Seit Veröffentlichung ihres Debütalbums „The Poison“ im Jahr 2005 zählen BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE zu den bedeutendsten Vertretern des internationalen Metalcore. Doch der Sound des Quartetts aus dem walisischen Bridgend reicht weiter: Versatzstücke aus den unterschiedlichsten Metal- Spielarten werden zu einer unvergleichlichen, stets aufregenden, brachialen und doch melodiösen Einheit verbunden. Nach ihrer vielumjubelten Welt-Tournee 2013/14, in deren Rahmen sie auch für insgesamt 14 ausverkaufte Shows in Deutschland gastierten, begannen die Arbeiten am Nachfolger „Venom“, ihrem global bislang erfolgreichsten Album, das im vergangenen August erschien und in die Top Ten fast aller bedeutenden Länder stieg, darunter England, Deutschland und die USA. Seither tourt die Band wieder um die Welt und kommt am 15. November nach Ludwigsburg in die MHP Arena. Special Guests dieser Aufsehen erregenden Tournee sind die US-Metal-Kollegen KILLSWITCH ENGAGE sowie Cane Hill. Es war ein weiter Weg für BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE bis zu ihrem ersten Album – zwischen Bandgründung und Veröffentlichung von „The Poison“ lagen sieben Jahre, die das Quartett aus Wales nutzte, um einen höchst eigenständigen, homogenen Sound zu entwickeln. Ausgehend vom Metalcore, binden die vier virtuosen Musiker Elemente aus Thrash und Heavy Metal, Hardrock und Speed Metal in ihren Klangkosmos ein. Entsprechend euphorisch wurden sie von den Fans aufgenommen, als ihnen der Start in eine internationale Karriere gelang. Trotz brachialer Härte erreichte „The Poison“ auf Anhieb Platz 21 der britischen Charts. Tourneen mit Metallica, Guns N´ Roses und vielen anderen Acts vergrößerten zudem ihren Bekanntheitsgrad. Mit Erscheinen des Nachfolgers „Scream Aim Fire“ manifestierten sich BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE als internationale Größe des jungen Metal.
