No Pasaran! (The Ballad of Jack Atkinson)

Instagram

Stage times for Saturday at #WSOisolationfest To get in, join us at: www.facebook.com/groups/isolationfest We got @billybraggofficial @gracepetriemusic @naomibedford77 @swillodgers @attilathestockbroker @jess_silk @headsticks @thewakesband and many more. This will be the Festival no-one went to but everyone was there. Join us 11.45am on Saturday!

Farewell Ste Goodall. See you when I get there, brother x

#WSOisolationfest is just a little bit special now. Well over 9000 waiting in the Facebook group for 11.45am next Saturday when the music starts, and WHAT a line-up: @billybraggofficial @gracepetriemusic @attilathestockbroker @thewakesband @jess_silk @headsticks @maddycartymusic @matthillsongwriter @naomibedford77 @thenashman @efasupertramp @chuckintransit @robbjohnsonofficial and many, many more. One big celebration of togetherness even though we're apart. Saturday April 11th. This will be the festival no-one went to but everyone was there x

For four and a half years I felt at home in the Labour Party because for once in my life I felt represented, and I was proud to support @jeremycorbyn from day one until the end of the road today. A thoroughly decent, dedicated and compassionate man in a world which treats those traits as weaknesses and mocks and exploits them into oblivion. His struggle for social justice will carry on, and will beat in the hearts of all those he inspired. Solidarity.

I know I said no more this year, but what the hell else does a songwriter do with no place to go? Ongoing work of songs, poetry and spoken word. Finished when this is over one way or the other. Superb @coinbutcher artwork too.

So here goes. On Saturday 11th April 2020 We Shall Overcome #WSO2020 will be running something called #WSOisolationfest It will be an online festival of music and poetry consisting of live streams and pre-recorded videos uploaded to a Facebook Group to a set schedule with a running order, like a real festival. The new group will be fully shared tonight, although many of you have found it already. And here's what will happen on Saturday April 11th. At midday I'll stream an introduction and from then on the music will hit 'the stage'. The stage is effectively the pinned post at the top of the page, the one you see first. When one set finishes it will be unpinned and the next artist pinned up there instead. When their set is finished they will remain on the page with links to music and t-shirts etc like a merch stand, with the added bonus that you can watch their set again or catch up if you missed it. This will run from 12 til midnight. It's free to get in, but we are desperately trying to keep Pauline Town going during the lockdown, so we have set up a GoFundMe page where you can offer a voluntary donation in exchange for the music....and no donation is too small. It will take ALL of us sharing the hell out of it to work, but as most of us musos have nothing to do for three months, I'm banking on a bit of help from everyone to make this a place we can celebrate togetherness even if we are apart. And that's why we've done this. Music performs a massively important role in society, it encourages and inspires, it lifts spirits and educates, and nowhere does it do that better than live. So there's an irony here, that just when we're most needed, we can't be there. Unless we can make something like this work and provide a template for how working together we can achieve something potentially amazing from a dark period in our history. #ApartTogether #FromOurKitchenToYours #WSO2020 #wsoisolationfest
