The Verbal Terrorists, from Newcastle, will work with an esteemed American rap duo who will feature as special guest vocalists on the group’s new release. It comes after the politically-motivated group, originally from Fenham in the city’s West End, were awarded £1,000 funding to help them produce another album.<br /><br />Now, the Terrorists, who aim to carry a political message and engage with disadvantaged young people through their lyrics, will work with New York-based double act, Dead Prez.<br /><br />I can't find any mention of where the funding is coming from but I am pretty sure we will be paying for it one way or another.alf stonenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-15108540907426002712011-04-03T14:01:54.777+01:002011-04-03T14:01:54.777+01:00"...and I urge everyone who cares about poetr..."...and I urge everyone who cares about poetry to join the PBS as a matter of urgency... and pay a suitable subscription to replace the money that hard pressed taxpayers can no longer afford to (unwittingly) donate so that I can make a better living out of my hobby than they can working their guts out."<br /><br />"Wait...

Just to check I ran to my collection of Ordnance Survey maps and searched desperately for signs of Poetry Corners, Street Theatres, Living Statues, Abstract Art Communities and People's Mime Events... and could not find one.<br /><br />Yes they have indeed been wiped off the map! So where do I go now to see young men breakdancing while listening to gangsta rap? Or admire displays of upside down garden sheds with blu-tacked signs on them?<br /><br />My life has just got less exciting... and all I have now are useless maps that shows bridges and roads and rivers...<br /><br />WV= infetic = risk of contracting disease from worn fetish clothingarts for farts sakenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-79647645505284483902011-04-03T12:59:13.669+01:002011-04-03T12:59:13.669+01:00Julian Lloyd Webber said the arts were just fine, ...Julian Lloyd Webber said the arts were just fine, on that dwarf's show this morning!Oldrightiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03192587284458430556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-86099900633163927752011-04-03T12:22:33.314+01:002011-04-03T12:22:33.314+01:00Cut harder, cut deeper.Cut harder, cut deeper.Longriderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139120804208136012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-81811004477497982372011-04-03T12:12:30.478+01:002011-04-03T12:12:30.478+01:00"Thespian", You mean a two meter, in all..."Thespian", You mean a two meter, in all directions, dungaree wearing, hobby welding, pit bull owning, docker boots wearing thing with no cock (but wishes it had) and a lisp?Furor Teutonicushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13856575077967523322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-31160027311866090192011-04-03T12:11:22.065+01:002011-04-03T12:11:22.065+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Furor Teutonicushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13856575077967523322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-75213533279176690282011-04-03T12:08:35.244+01:002011-04-03T12:08:35.244+01:00It would be interesting to know what alternative t...It would be interesting to know what alternative these people think there is.<br /><br />All very good at saying "Not us, we are important", but none of them ever seems to suggest what SHOULD be cut, so there pathetic little book reading, pigmaent daubing, and stage prancing (Also known as "dance" and "ballet") clubs can "survive".Furor Teutonicushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13856575077967523322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-627081175329856970.post-3712031178754921942011-04-03T12:08:18.461+01:002011-04-03T12:08:18.461+01:00It's nice to read some good news occasionally....It's nice to read some good news occasionally.
