While the recent Greek elections were making the news headlines, Wrinkly Towers was delighted to receive our latest membership application from Crete! Although our latest membership offer of £3 tickets to see Blacktop Deluxe at The Fiddler's Elbow on Saturday 14th February, might still be financially prohibitive for Chris to fly over - but hey, £3 to see two great bands must be worth the effort of joining our FREE membership scheme - just for that alone! Welcome aboard Chris!

Our thanks to Wrinkly The Silver and his never ending connections for our 'Video Of The Day'. German based band Avantasia is a metal opera project put together by 'Edguy' singer/songwriter Tobias Sammet. The Avantasia show is usually three hours long and Tobias manages to bring in some amazing guest vocalists from all over the World, one of which in the past has been - you've guessed it - Bob Catley from Magnum!

Within an hour of the launch of our new site, Chris Rogers of Powys, was the first person to take up FREE WRC membership! If you want to join Chris and all the others and take advantage of offers such as discounted tickets to our forthcoming Aynsley Lister gig then simply go to our FREE Membership page.

We suppose it should have been our Track Of The Day but Albany Down's awesome live performance of 'South Of The City' on Radio Veronica's Countdown Cafe at the end of August was actually filmed - hence today's Vid Of The Day. And don't forget that the guys are also appearing at our WRC Xmas Bash at The Horn Reborn in St Albans on Wednesday 2nd December. Supported by the excellent Southbound - you have two quality bands for just £7 in advance (including admin fees) here - £9 on the door and only £5 for WRC Members - just e-mail wrcpromotions@aol.com to reserve your members ticket.

Their new album '4' has enjoyed high approval ratings - indeed Cashbox magazine called it "an album absolutely jam-packed full of catchy music, subtle lyrics and sheer pleasure." Yes 2014 BluesFest heroes the David Sinclair Four are supporting Warren E. Hodges at The Borderline, London W1, tonight. The world-renowned six-string pioneer, Hodges, continues to blaze trails with his signature brand of guitar driven rock. His latest offering, Gunslinger, features 10 new songs that bend, squeeze, and breathe fire into the wood and wire he wields. Doors open at 7pm with DS4 on stage at 8.05pm precisely with Hodges on at 8.50pm. Admission is £12.

Kevin Beale is back live tonight here at 7pm with his Blues On The Radio show with very special guest Toby Barelli aka King Size Slim talking about his brand new forthcoming album.

And talking of Track's Of The Day - we're giving you another chance to listen to yesterday's Blues On The Radio podcast with the news that the star of the show - WRC Award winner Robin Bibi - will now be popping in to the TNMC's First Anniversary party at Hooley Village Club, St. Margaret's Road, Hooley Village, Coulsdon, Surrey, CR5 3RB between midday and midnight this Saturday!

"Finally, it was Ray Davies’ turn, playing an extended set of nearly two hours to help make up for no Joan Armatrading. Ray had a full supporting band, but no other Kinks - and he ruled out any prospect of a reunion because “we wouldn’t want to do another Who”. However, even if the band wasn’t pure Kinks, the songs were. Sunny Afternoon had the whole crowd standing, singing and dancing - I did vaguely wonder where those thousands of folding chairs had got to, but didn’t know, and didn’t really care."
