Every so often I advise you not to look at this blog but to point your browsers somewhere else instead. This is one of those times as Shephard Fairey starts to hit town in advance of his stolenspace show (starting 2nd November) . 

Obeyclothing.co.uk have the heads up on this one and their blog should be essential reading over the next few days. Here's some pictures they've got already and I'll be running some from the show and streetwork just as soon as I can.

Paul Fox RIP

Paul Fox, guitarist with the Ruts died aged 56 on Sunday October 21st 2007. Paul was pivotal to one of the best punk bands of all time, certainly the best of the second wave of punk bands that hit the charts around 1979. His guitar sound, menacing, amplified and clear will live on - even so many years later the Ruts songs still sound fresh and urgent. Hit up Youtube for Babylon's Burning or Something That I said or type in Rollins Ruts to see Paul Fox play at his farewell gig with Henry Rollins. The Guardian have an obituary on Paul here.
