Thanks to Steve Wilde for this! Was having a really depressing day until this turned up. Respect to pirate Paul for putting up with our mutinous behaviour.
Thanks to my Modwolves fan club connections I managed to win exclusive tickets to see the brand new live show from the Mighty Boosh on Saturday. After our (unsuccessful) Thames boat ride we made our way over to 3 Mills TV studios in Bromley on Bow. If you don't want to know what's in the new live show then you'd best not read this as it will spoil the surprise.

More than 2 years ago, my sensei knocked on my door 'selling' the club. His sales pitch was well rehearsed and practised though I always remember questioning him on some points with his responses just repeating parts of his patter which I just put it down to a hammy technique. Still, I wanted to get back into shape and was unimpressed by the other local clubs. It was reasonable too and within a few months I had removed alot of belly bulk. A few months in, I was asked to join the c...
After a friend recommended last year's release I'd never heard about - The Cartel by Amorphous Androgynous - I went to search for it on YouTube and also came across this legendary Radio One mix from their original alter-ego Future Sound of London. Having only this on cassette tape I can now share this.
