First of all, apologies for the lack of blogging on my part. Been busy interviewing and writing exclusive features for our first issue due out beginning of May.
If you have no plans for this evening, Birmingham’s Secret Wars FINAL is taking place at The Rainbow Warehouse in Digbeth. I’m going, you should too.
The battle is between Bevlak and Phill Blake for the right to be crowned Secret Wars Champion of Birmingham 2008/2009. I attended the second semi-final last month and it was a thoroughly enjoyable night which you won’t be able to experience for another year!
Melonz’ editor and designer – Katherine Higgs will also be playing drums for her band The Epics in The Rainbow pub supporting Isolated Atoms. Why not check out both?
Be there for 8pm to catch all of the music, 9pm for the art.
See you later
