TIME - The Musical by Dave Clark opened on April 9th, 1986 in the Dominion Theatre in London's West End.

Time tells the story of the Rock Star named Chris Wilder, Cliff Richard, (later by David Cassidy) who has been transported, with backup singers Louise, Babs and Carol, from his concert on Earth to the High Court of the Universe.
There they face three other-worldly judges to defend the Earth in the case of the Time Lord vs. the people of the planet Earth.
From the programme: "...Now that man is venturing to the stars and has already walked on the Moon, 'Melchisedic', The Time Lord, has decided that the time has come to examine the Earth's people to determine whether they shall be an asset or a threat to Universal peace.”
Wilder convinces the judges that the Earth is worth sparing and he is transported back to his concert at the same time that he left. (Unbelievable, you say? It gets better.) Laurence Olivier portrayed a holographic floating head named Akash (his role was filmed) who is a pseudo-narrator throughout the show.

That's when we will be performing next, for those who simply cannot wait for the 5th of december...

Did you hear "Kindergarten Priest" already? This band rocks and of course they are friends of ours!

Last.FM started a new campaign and a new blog for all the independent artists out there.

"The Campaign for Better Music is here to say: it doesn’t have to be like the old days. We’re going to show you how to produce, promote and distribute your music, without spending a load of money, and without lots of other people getting involved."

SO, follow their blog, they're trying to come up with some helpful info:

Now Form a Band

Unsigned and single. After a brief "intermezzo" with Condi Rice he's back in Berlin to rock a couple of locations we're not gonna tell you about (because you might come and you might bring your stupid friends along and it's all very secret.) But I can tell you this, all the labels are fighting over this guy and they didn't even see him live.

The MySpace of Alex Tornado is not much help, but everybody who has seen him , thinks he's a sensation...

Please welcome our new friends on MySpace or over at
WWW.NOBLESSEOBLIGE.CO.UK.

They rock!

Some dates in Berlin coming up!
