It's at @daltonsbrighton in their new bar area next door and our guest speakers are artists @helen_anahita_wilson and @linett_kamala, as well as author @danielrachelauthor. Three returning legends who will be discussing music, sound and subcultures. Tickets are up now and nobody will be turned away for lack of funds. Daltons is an accessible venue, too.

BBC CANCEL BOOK TALK
This weekend, I was booked to talk on the BBC World Service about This Ain’t Rock ‘n’ Roll. The invitation has been withdrawn.
‘I’ve enjoyed reading the book,’ I was told, ‘but I’m sorry I don’t think I can make it work as an interview.’
I’ve done multiple interviews, podcasts, and live events – but nothing at the BBC.
Is the book really too inflammatory?

Should musicians stay out of politics, or is silence a political statement in itself?
On this week’s Moral Maze, bestselling author and music historian Daniel Rachel argues that artists are increasingly expected to take public political positions, and that social media has made neutrality harder than ever to maintain.
