GIG OF THE MONTH
JEFFERSON STARSHIP, a collaboration of
celebrated musicians that plays from the rich songbook of its
legendary forefathers JEFFERSON AIRPLANE and the original
incarnation of JEFFERSON STARSHIP, prevails as one of the
most critically acclaimed touring acts today. Steeped in the
fantastic realms of science fiction and the contemporary
American shadowland, JEFFERSON STARSHIP features a
stellar cast of old and new players, including
songwriter/guitarist/vocalist Paul Kantner, vocalist Marty
Balin, both of whom founded JEFFERSON AIRPLANE and
were crucial in developing the renowned "San Francisco
Sound" that changed the course of pop music forever.

MICK MOONSHINE'S AMERICANA
SUNDAY SESSIONS 4-7pm starting January 11th
with top UK ARTISTS/BANDS
Sun 11th
Countryfied music that stayed behind on the farm, Blues that never went to
Chicago, Country that never went to Nashville.
The three OCR boys will let rip with original material that includes murder ballads and hill country blues,
and also a selection of favourite covers from the likes of Johnny Cash and RL Burnside. All this cooked
up on a variety of homemade instruments and old junk. And if you’re lucky enough, you’ll get the full
‘Chickenvision’ video show.
AMERICANA
American roots music
styles, including country,
roots-rock, folk, bluegrass,
R&B and blues, resulting
in a distinctive rootsoriented sound that lives
in a world apart from the
pure forms of the genres
upon which it may draw.
While acoustic
instruments are often
present and vital,
Americana also often
uses a full electric band.

SACKO'S SHIT
LIST...
Ah there you are. Come on in and
make yourself comfortable. Unless
you've come to complain in which
case get to fuck.
What's new in the world of shit then?
I do try to stay topical you know.
Trouble is by the time Moonshine
gets his arse in gear any topical
comment is history and the UK public
has moved onto the latest celebrity
pisswater tittle tattle.Fortunately said
public is so effing irritating that a
never ending supply of arseache is
my sad lot. Still share and share alike
eh? After all it's
CHRISTMASSSSS!!! Well it's
proably about the tenth of fucking
January by now.
So let's get bang up to date, which in
Derby means approximately 1974.
Kim Kardashian's arse
I really can't see what the fuss is all
about. It's a BARE WOMAN'S ARSE
for God's sake. How in the name of
JESUS CHRIST is that any kind of a
bad thing? I enjoyed it. I have yet to
see a woman who did or who was
equivocal about the topic. Sisterhood
you see. Not one was less than
waspishly bitchy in their dismissal of
the KKK, Kim Kardashian's Khyber.
However, there is an endless list of
pretty and not so pretty females, who
despite the herculanean efforts of
Mrs Pankhurst and her disciples over
the last century to persuade us that
they are fully equal to men and
should be judged by their brains and
not their looks are perfectly OK with
the fact that if you get your arse out,
and preferably your tits and your
hanging bacon too, you'll get a lot
further in life and usually a career in
the media. Unless you're a bloke, in
which case you'll get a fine and a
criminal record.
Kim Kardashian is no exception to
this rule. I mean what other skill has
she got? Why is she famous? I have
no clue, have you? But she has got a
BIG FAT ARSE and in the year 2014,
much as in the year 1914, 1814,
1714 and so on that will suffice.
Unless she's pig ugly in which case
she'll be best off jumping under the
King's horse at Epsom. How's about
it Kim, after all, we've seen your only
talent now so run along, I'm onto the
next one. Unless you want to get
your hairy clam out which will
occupy the massed ranks of men
who claim to support feminism for
about five minutes and three
tissues. It might not break the
internet but it'll break a marriage or
two if she comes home
unexpectedly.
Stupid Pizza toppings
You eat a cheese and tomato
sandwich and would you put fish
on it? No, you wouldn't because it
would be revolting. Or pineapple?
No? A piece of chicken? Don't pull
that face at me, I saw you eat the
very same things on a pizza last
week.
There is a simple rule as to what
should not appear on a pizza. The
Four F rule. No Fish, No Fowl. No
FUCKING FRUIT. Anything else is
fair game.
Whilst on the topic who thought of
cheese on chips? The firm who
make the drugs you take after a
heart attack of course..they're not
daft you know.
Amber Valley's MP playing
Candy Crush in the House Of
Commons.
I always knew they didn't give a
shit for what goes on as long as
they get paid and can whack in a
huge expenses claim though you'd
think they'd be better at hiding it.
But that is not my issue. If
he was cracking one off
craftily over a fit female MP
sat opposite him I'd be fine
with it. Or if he was on the
phone to his stockbroker,
sorting out some shares in
a company they were about
to privatise for a tenth of it's
value after the public had
paid for it's improvement,
fine. That's what being an
MP is all about, but playing
a sad arsed computer
game? Useless cunt.
He may as well though as
come May, Amber Valley
will undoubtedly vote UKIP
because they're tired of
being fucked by the same
old corrupt two parties and
fancy being fucked by
someone different, it keeps
the marriage together you
know and the UKIP whore
will wear all the lingerie of
racism and perform the
naughty spice up your
marriage sex acts of
national pride and caning the
unfortunates in society, the ones that
have tuppence less than you but don't
have to slave all week at a min wage job
for it.
Of course, once you're married all that
will stop and UKIP's sexy mistress will
lorp the pounds on and start going to
bed in a vest and socks but it'll be good
for a bit.
As it is she's getting her fat arse out for
the lads. Good girl. they'll buy anything
these days.
Christmas telly
Now you are reading this in January no
doubt, I'm writing it in December and I
have yet to see the TV schedules. But I
bet you it's shit. There will be at least
three Harry Potter films on for a start,
Harry and the Secret Chamber Pot
probably where Voldemort has done a
horrific shit in Hogwarts and is such a
evil twat he won't reveal the location.
What else will we get? Blackadder's
Christmas Carol I bet, not that that's bad
but how often can you laugh at the
same jokes? If you have a good answer
let me know and it'll save me some time
writing this fucker every month.
I daresay we will have a few episodes
of Morecambe and Fucking Wise and
Only Fools and Horses too. Apparently
63% of Christmas TV is to be repeats, a
figure that shocked me. I'd have said
90% at least. And shit repeats at that.
