NOTE TO BANDS: Before you ask to be added, take a look at the clubs I DJ at & the music I play. You might be better off getting in touch with the booker at my club's live wing, Corrupt Events .
NOTE ABOUT COMMENTS: I won't approve comments that are just plugs for events I'm not involved with, DJs' new on-line mixes, bands' new singles, etc. Personal messages are, as ever, most welcome!
Want to see some photos taken in clubs (and, increasingly rarely, in daylight)? Take a look at my FLICKR page.
