THE GOBSHYTE COLUMN

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Ignore this bit for now... Hello Gobbytes, this is The Great British Gob Shyte talking. Here’s a wee advert for Issue 1 of an A5 fanzine I’m making called ‘GOBSHYTE WEEKLY’. Check out the bog-brush aesthetic of that front cover in the photo. The main point of it is for me to get the best bits of the columns that I write over on www.myspace.com/gobshytecolumn off the computer and into peoples hands, so that perhaps people can digest them better. It will also include further scribbled rantings and images, lots of collage of rap lyrics found on the streets of Haggerston and ransom letters found on Murder Mile. Anyway, Issue 1 is out now and it’s free lads ‘n’ lasses! I have a limited number of copies left. If you’d like one, you can email me your postal address to [email protected] and I’ll send it to you. Future issues will (I think) be £1 and will come out (approximately) once a week. You can send cheques made payable to Steven Lowery at 70 Blurton Road, Clapton, London, E5 0NJ you lucky bleeders. Perhaps £5 for an initial subscription of 5 issues or however many you like really!! Or catch me out and about, I’ll also be selling them at future GB Steam Trains gigs and Sunday League performances.Also, ‘CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS’! in issue one I have featured drawings by Erika Nordqvist and text by Paul Carr and Eddie Farrell has already contributed some text for the 2nd issue. So if you’ve got any words or images you’d like me to put in ‘GOBSHYTE WEEKLY’ in the future (and they could be any-fucking-thing you like), then send them to [email protected] Over and out and languishing in the viaducts of a car boot on Mars… Your handsome admirer… Steven ‘The Gob Shyte Column’ Lowery. Once again, you can read the Gob Shyte Column in its all its unedited ranting goriness on www.myspace.com/gobshytecolumnI am writing this beatiful Gob Shyte Column in honour of all those pigeons out there for whom nibbling on sick in the graveyard is like dining out at The Savoy or some shit...I also write sackloads of acoustic grumbling numericals for the knackers at the bus stop who have "no wonder he/she's ticked up to the eyeballs" written on there foreheads. Here's my other site you shites: www.myspace.com/stevenloweryI am in a band called GB STEAM TRAINS with my esteemed colleague Paul Carr, and we'll be coming at you like steam trains in an ale house/ tap room near you sometime soon babybee! Our site just had to be: www.myspace.com/gbsteamtrainsStay tuned for further developments in the ongoing saga of Billy Bollox, after returning from their heart of darkness type experiences in the New Forest last summer, where will they show up, could it be the mobile disco, the local cop shop more like.... This is a peformance art thing that i do with Whiskey Eddie Farrell, for want of a better way of putting it. They don't have a website as yet, but then they can hardly spell their own names let alone... But Eddie works with the ever enjoyable Michael Wedgwood at the following web adress: www.shytstem.biz

This Heat/Dead C/Smog/Sly & Robbie/Rammellzee/Hawkind Rant

It's quite amazing how much Dead C echoed what This Heat were up to, I think they're two of my favourite bands of all time though, either way, I think you'd be hard pushed to find anyone more inventiv...
