Wrong Speed Records. Part-time electric guitarist.
SCIENCE FICTION are folks from Bob Tilton, Lords, Brown Owl, Hey Colossus, Kogumaza, Schema etc. Rather than reform old bands + cash in on nostalgia we're trying something new because we're stupid and we hate money.
First gig on Sunday at JT Soar Fest in Nottingham. 1.15pm. Real time not punk time.

This weekend is the start of a daft "4 gigs in a week with 4 different bands, 2 of which I've never played in before" personal Krypton Factor challenge that seemed a good idea.
One on Saturday, two on Sunday and one next Sunday.
Come early if you're coming to either
("Casualty" theme plays)

Rest In Power Bruce Loose, partially responsible for a couple of the weirdest nights of my life when Grey Hairs opened for Flipper in 2012. Memorable characters to say the least.

Most 2025 releases (Haress, AAA Gripper, Irked, Big Break, Deep Cabaret, Navigator, Joeyfat) are down to their last few copies and there's some back catalogue gold available thanks to a warehouse tidy up.

LP is random-coloured recycled vinyl. Shown here as a sort of blue vomit but we won't know for sure til they arrive. The excitement!
