Brave Captain: Advertisements For Myself
"Wake Up Boo" has become something of an albatross for Martin Carr. The Boo Radley's never managed to write anything as catchy again and subsequently split up.
Some bands spend a fortune on their music. Fancy expensive guitars, Roland keyboards, flash drum kits, the works.

What is a Juma? Well it depends on whom you ask... To some it's a dance riddled drug fuelled monster of funky rock and roll.
I have to say I was pleased that this event was taking place, my 82-year-old gran had a full right mastectomy to fight breast cancer only 3 years ago, and I have lost an Aunt to cancer.
