Catfish & The Bottlemen - The Avenue, Leigh

Llandudno indie band are coming to Leigh on the 11th December, So though I would put a preview up about the band etc..Having seen them play in Indiependence, I was taken back by there raw guitars and hard hitting drum beats and toe tapping songs - A band to look out for.

Catfish & The Bottlemen won BBC6 Music Unsigned Band award in March 2009, and have spent the past year gigging and promoting there EP/getting there music about in venues/clubs up and around the North of England.

They released there début EP - Poetry & Fuel, Followed by The Beautiful Decay EP which I have on non stop - Every song on there I like and all get my feet tapping and singing away whether its in a plant room at work, Playing drums or just around.

Since then they have released there Acoustic Sessions album, Bodies Single ( Free digital format and also a single format in CD) 

Give them a listen.

Wearetuktuk - Latest Purchase

I am waiting on what looks like to be one of the best shirts I have ever purchased to be coming through my door next week, With my own little bespoke twist added ( Top Pocket on the left breast and a 1.5" collar) I went for the soft grey chambray shirt and will be going for one off there shirts again later this month I hope..They offer there own bespoke service want that long sleeve shirt short sleeve? sure why not want a smaller collar sure.

After one off the emails I have received, They look to have some off the best customer service out there.

On to the fabric of choice for this shirt - Chambray - The lightweight, primarily cotton fabric known as chambray is a plain weave fabric and is generally used for spring and summer tops and skirts. The fabric was originally made in Cambria, France, and the name was derived from that region. Although chambray is primarily a lightweight fabric, it is also made in heavier weights for fall, such as for back-to-school collections.

This shirt takes a diffrent twist on the normal blue chambray shirt, Look forward to seeing it and trying it on in the flesh.

My Obsession...My Love.

The DW Stadium...Home off my Football Club, Wigan Athletic FC.

We are not wanted...

You know that feeling? Where you feel you have over stayed your welcome? Well the average working class match day fan must be feeling that and has done for years, But something I noticed on the Arsenal v Newcastle match was the "Corporate" sponsoring going on during the game, And a source closer to home, Wigan Athletic the players for years have always acknowledged our support, For the Blackburn game they didn't think its a case of that's my 90 minutes played, Will go get my pay check, Fuck Wigan Athletic FC and their fans, I want my money is the mentality  that that showed in my opinion.

For years the likes of De Vos, Liddell etc all showed their supported to us, Maybe its the signs off modern football and its players have been creeping in through the back door at my club? Or is it a case of we are not wanted the fan who likes a beer, banter and that "edginess" off going to away games...Who knows? Time will tell  and from what it looks like, Wigan Athletic FC will need us more than ever in the near future.

In the Post - Casual Connoisseur Weir Hat 3

Over here on Redbricks we love what the Casual Connoisseur label produces, Having got a few off there tees and being a member over on there forum we often get an in site onto how the brand works and what is in the pipeline, After missing out on these great winter tifters the first time, I had to get one in what is my opinion the best out off the colours, They look mega.

Produced 150 of each colour, That means that there is only 50 off each - They have flown off the shelf, And they come with a limited edition card and the like which is the quirkiness which I love.

Also the fact that they are MADE IN ENGLAND is a massive selling point for me, There different and you will not see any around WN6 or at the Stadio d' JJB ( well I hope not.)
