Less than three weeks now till Feel's first show at the Glas Goes Pop festival on Saturday August 15th at Glasgow University. We will be playing Felt instrumental songs - and Felt songs instrumentally. Sounding great too!

Feel is a new group made up of original Felt members Gary Ainge, Marco Thomas on bass and Philip King on rhythm guitar. With Martin Davies on keys and Andy Wellings on lead guitar, they will be honouring the beauty of Felt’s music-by playing instrumental Felt songs-and Felt songs instrumentally.

Fan photo taken by Scott M. Schreiber at Glastonbury 1992. I’m rockin’ a brave all white look. I wore something similar when Felt played there in 1987 too (with Miki and Emma in the audience) and didn’t get a spot of mud on myself either time.

I see that Eyes Wide Shut has just been reissued by Criterion. During my very short time as a film extra in the late '90s I actually turned down Kubrick - as I was offered the - fnar fnar - very small part of a naked waiter at an orgy in Eyes Wide Shut.

It certainly looks like there were a lot more people at the My Bloody Valentine show at Wembley Arena last night than when Biff Bang Pow! supported them on a rainy Saturday night at Chatham Town Hall in January 1988. Alan McGee and Dick Green from Creation signed them to the label that very night
