A Glom of Nit microletter
So just quickly
Hi,
I’ll keep this short, as this is more in the way of a public service announcement. There’ll be a proper Glom of Nit full newsletter next weekend with the traditional turn of the month. BUT there’s some timely stuff I wanted to get out now. It’s a capitalism thing. I kind of hate myself for it, but that’s the world for you.
Oh, I realise I’m sending this on Black Friday. I’d like to state clearly, and for the record, that this is not a Black Friday thing. It just happens to be Black Friday. Which, back in my day, wasn’t a thing. It was just “Friday”. *
So there’s some stuff about books, and then some stuff about a music gig in London next week (which fans of The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing should pay attention to).
All the info is below. I’m now going back to writing about Nirvana. Oh … did I tell you I’m writing a book about Nirvana?

Thing One: BOOKS
After much bother The London Boys: David Bowie, Marc Bolan and the 60s Teenage Dream is finally out in proper book shops and online stores. I’m aware Amazon is kind of awful, but for an author it’s a necessary evil, so if you do buy it from there at least you know it’s boosting me up the rankings. I’ve put some links for the common UK bookstores below. International releases will follow next year.

Thing two: A GIG
I’ll be re-uniting with my colleagues from The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing, Andy and Jez, to play a special one off gig in London featuring my band Before Victoria, their band Flesh Tetris, and our friends from New York, Frenchy & The Punk, who are one of my favourite acts to see live. It’s December 2nd at The Black Heart, London, and I promise it’ll be a really special night. TICKETS HERE.
