Hello this is Woody’s brother Nick here.

I am writing this short note to tell everybody about my musical projects and video disasters that are in the pipeline or out there for your perusal.

Firstly if you want to listen to some of my music you can listen to my MySpace music by going to www.myspace.com/nickywoodgate.

In my top favourite firends on MySpace you can find Jacana which is another of my bands which is a latin based three piece band that I love playing in but we are have a very slow output of songs recorded and have only finished two tunes to date one of which you can find on the Jacana myspace page by going to www.myspace.com/jacanaband

I had an album for sale on iTunes but have recently taken it off because I quickly became a millionaire and wanted time to spend my money. It was called Nicky Woodgate, and had the tunes Open up and Let Me In, Long Time Coming , Nashville Jam and Joy I Found. All of these were recorded in Nashville TN USA in 2002.

I will shortly have a new EP arriving on iTunes for sale called Storm and Stress, which includes 6 tracks of instrumental music. The tracks include; Blueberry Pie, Get Ready, Rolling Hills, Latin Love, 53rd Ocean and Clear For Landing available in top sound quality.

If you like YouTube you can see me in the crappiest ever film making production of two of my songs. If you search for Nicky Woodgate’s First Video and Nicky Woodgate’s Second Video you should find it or look me up under my user name which is nickywoodgate.

I play in a covers band most weekends and rarely do gigs but it’s normally is in the Mil Hill area of North London near to our rehearsal rooms. We don’t have a name for our covers band. I play a blue Strat through a Peavy valve amp in the covers band - which is another three piece affair and we play 60’s and 70’s hits for the likes of the Stones, The Beatles, The Kinks and The Who, loud and proud and a good laugh if ever I had one.

May you cherish your friends and loved ones and family because they are the reason for all your present happiness.

Love from Nick

WHERE ARE THE REBELS WHERE ARE THE RIOTS

by Martin Brett of Voice of the Beehive

Why is it that the kids today seem so complacent about the government & the bankers who have fucked up this country? What we need is a reaction & it isn’t happening.

Is it because surviving on credit has provided a nice easy cushion for everyone over the last 20 years so there is no desire to react against it? There is a storm coming & when people run out of money, credit, beer, clothes, food, housing & lose their jobs will the students & the kids unite & do something?

Where are the great bands that always emerge in these situations in history, protesting & making a point? I can’t see them yet & that is sad. Why is it that my band “I Ludicrous” who have been around for 25 years is still writing interesting observational lyrics protesting against the crap that society is presenting us now? Where are the riots, the gigs, the songs & the souls of people who want to make a serious point? In 2 years time it will all be too late.
