So, its been pretty quiet around here recently, since the heat and squalor of the summer. However, lots has changed since then. Our Iron Lung now has DJ sets at Club Indiependance at the Cell in Lincoln every Wednesday, showcasing the best in fresh indie and electro. We like playing local bands, they like hearing their songs being played. We also help book bands for Club Indiependance, as well as another night in Spilsby, allowing us to book live slots for Our Iron Lung's favorite local artists such as Aurora Stripe and I Need To Discover. On another note, I (Liam) now write for the Lincoln SU magazine Bullet, as well as Sandman Magazine, distributed free in Nottingham, Leeds, Sheffield, Manchester, York and Hull (25,000 copies a month!). Its all go in this world. This post is going to be pretty packed full of media, so lets begin.

Firstly, this time last weekend I was down in Skegness watching Pigeon Detectives. Unfortunately no local support bands, but still a pretty stunning show, you can see a video I took embedded below.


Next up is this Wednesday night just gone at Club Indiependance, where we had great sets from Joe Mac, Dirty Backbeats, Rosalita, and The Displacements. There'll be a full review in both the new issue of Bullet, out the end of November, and the December issue of Sandman. For now, you can see some fabulous pictures from the night on Scott Murray's flickr page here and download some mp3's by each of the bands at the bottom of the page.

Finally, I've been playing the new Young Knives single Terra Firma to death at Club Indiependance, and as some kind of weird reward from Transgressive Records, have been showered with heaps of Young Knives badge sets and Terra Firma posters/fliers. Seeing as these are currently cluttering up my otherwise gorgeous room, I figured I should get rid of them, so... A free bundle of Young Knives goodies and possibly some other extra stuff to the first five people to drop me an email (address is in the sidebar) with the subject "Fake Rabbit Real Snake".
