So here we are, episode 100! Recorded live at The Cellar Southampton and what an afternoon Paul (Unplug the Juke Box) and I had!

Sadly no live video stream ( I broke the internet!) but some great live performances from Anja McCloskey, Marvin B Naylor, The Lost Boys, Mike Vaughan and Gideon Towers from Gideon’s Demise. I filled in with some amazing tracks from Tim Farrell and Matt Stevens ( the remixed one by Pseudo Ambient) . I chatted with Guy Sivour from Sand River, David Simnell, and Mark Lawrence from Broken Links. It would have been mean not to play one of their tracks so I did that too!

In time honored fashion I finished of with one of my tracks Be Like Your Friend.

Thanks to everyone that came along and especially to Mark & Kev from The Cellar for letting me shout in their bar for a few hours!

This week I am joined by America’s best export Justin Wayne from The Justin Wayne Show with random comments from Izzy and what fun we had.

I played Kidd Russell’s new single Backyard Heroes, Ruins by Pineross, Glen Laughlin’s Valentines Day, the astounding Teenage Eyes from old friends and all round good guys Ex Libras, Fez and Lowlight and the fabulously handsome April Maybe May and Sugar & Mess and Haunted Stereo Can You See My Side in a plea to find out if anyone has seen Anja?

I wasn’t going to play Ben Sommer’s Adult Babies but I did. You’ll have to listen to see why.

I also mentioned my good friend Richard Vobes comedy podcast and urged you to give it a try.

It appears that the Markers Mark did the trick this week as I whizzed through the podcast at record speed!

I started off with and old favourite Diana by The Wilton Project, then a most beautiful tune by April Maybe May called Sugar & Mess and then Alibi by Planes Over Paris. Then came my interview with the delightful Anja McClosky who told me all about her imminent tour of America next month. If you’re about try and catch her to say hi.

I also played Anja’s amazing tunes Stephanie IV. Pam Shaffer’s track Henry followed this then a word or two from that nice Paul Lane from Unplug the Jukebox. Steve Lowis’s Rescue and newly named Alligator Indian and their top track Prospect Park.

I finished off with a track I recorded on my honeymoon in 2006, lets just call it Slide.

I hope you enjoyed the podcast, click on something eh?

It’s another “lets focus on the music as Nick is a bit of a shambles” podcasts this week!

But what amazing music, I kicked off with Three’s Company by the amazing Helen Austin then Can’t You See My Side by the brilliant Haunted Stereo and then Langir Skigger a live track recorded for Icelandic radio by the awesome Menn Arsins . Paul Lane from Unplug The Jukebox and I chatted in my car about The Lost Souls Club.

Then I played the brand new track Panic by the cosmic Gideon’s Demise followed by a new track by Paul Liddell the cracking tune Boots.

I also found space to play a great track called Like a Drug by Australian band The Milkmen

I played a little demo that has the working title Froggy Demca.

Paul Lane and I decided to do the first of what I hope with be a regular 6 weekly special of tracks reviewed by Paul on his Unplug The Juke box feature. We had a great time with not only some great tracks but also we were lucky enough to be joined by Dan from The Lost Boys who performed a track so new that the rest of his band had yet to hear it. Anja McClosky also graced us with her presence, her piano accordion, her amazing voice and by Andy on guitar and a fantastic fiddle player whose name escapes me but they both also join her playing as they do for Haunted Stereo They made a fantastic sound!

Along with some sensible chat from Paul (I took a bit of a back seat in this one) we played some of his favourite tracks from the last few months. Tracks by These Fine Galleons, The Manic Shine , The Chase , Mutant Vinyl and I played one of Paul’s favourites but not his first choice as my throat is far to rough (I have a bit of a sore throat) to belt out That Woman. To find out what I sang you’ll have to listen.

A frankly shambolic podcast, I even got the number wrong it IS number 43. What I DID get right was the music, they are all new artists to Is This Thing On. I played the songs of
