Thursday 19th August - The 5678s, The Morphines and 59 Violets At Sweet N Sour - The Welly

The 5678s - Woo-hoo, woo-hoo-hoo! Yes, the 5678s are THAT Japanese girl group, who provided the insanely addictive rockabilly soundtrack to both Kill Bill and Euro 2004! Glamorous, slightly mad and with a wide-eyed enthusiasm that makes two-and-a-bit chord rock'n'roll sound like the coolest thing in the world EVER, The 5678s are a live experience and a half. Hanky Panky, Three Cool Chicks, Bomb The Twist.. The 5678s are a garage-surf-punk dream guaranteed to put smiles on faces and feet on dance floors. Back-comb your beehive and immerse yourself in this trashy treat.

Imagine a strange fusion of the musicals Grease, The Rocky Horror Picture Show and The Buddy Holly Story performed by three cutesy Japanese girls who fluctuate effortlessly between chic lounge instrumentals and screaming garage punk outbursts and you're, well, not even close really - Counterculture 9pm £5 Beverley Road, Hull Tel 01482 221113

Going Down - Oak Leaf Gathering (or Carry On Pagan) By Rich Mills
	Oak Leaf gathering is an annual event, bringing together pagans from all over the country for a weekend. In the setting of Lime Tree farm, the whole thing had an air of mystery. Not just the wonderful stone circle, or the fantastic Iron-age round-house, not even the beauty of the Yorkshire countryside that surrounded us. Read more...

Going Down - Grounation Hull Jazz Festival 31st July By Jane Foster

Album Reviews - Michelle's CD choice of the moment CRUSH double CD by Polygram T.V.
	Where did all the good stuff go, those great bands of the nineties with cool sounding one-word names like Dodgy, Lush and Pulp etc. The t-shirts were tight fitting, brightly coloured with trims on neck and sleeves. The band logos were unobtrusive in trendy oval shaped designs. Read more...
