F.L.U @ Old Queens Head

This was our second monthly night at the old QUEEN. The first Tuesday of every month treats us nicely. The somewhat unpredictable Gods of Promotion and Fortune, always ready to upset the rhythm, to keep you on your toes.

Overseers of the cosmic universe of the 3rd/4th and 5th dimensions revel in the comic nature of humanities existence and the jokes it can play on you/me and the curious life of a promoter. A truly exceptional breed. Choosing to exist in a realm of pure chance and lottery. YOU BUY YOUR TICKET, YOU TAKE THE RIDE. There are no P.A.Y.E's here. Just unstable elements that one convinces them self, that combined & confined into one venue for one night will create a chemical & henceforth physical reaction with punter & cash money alike. That wonder/amazement/a mild inter-rest, the suspension of disbelief for a few hours from the illusionary reality that we all BUY INTO can be offered up to the Gods for 5 ENGLISH POUNDS.


We pray! We abandon all religion and superstition! We become MATH. I AM THE FOULS/YOU ARE KRAFTWERK/ JESUS.......AND THE MARY CHAIN............I digress.

Our line up for April here was about as true as you can get to what F.L.U(FUTURE LONDON UNDERGROUND is all about. We had the Black Soul Strangers who are moved/moving to the Sepultura CITY(LONDON) to make their fame and fortune. Sounding like a angry/Irish RADIOHEAD, ones to watch explode into orbit this summer.


The Black Tricks, return to the limelight with a whole host of new songs and line up. Elliot the guitar player of the now defunct SKALLYWAGS (R.I.P) is on bass duties. Word on the streets of East London is that they are bringing another new member to cover bass? who? and Elliot will jump back on his sonic blaster and do what he does best....rinse the shit out of his guitar. Alongside John Black Tricks on guitar this band will be immense.


Next up we had Poppy & the Jezebels. These young ladies are front runners in the underage gig scene that has blown up over the past few years. We couldn't wait to have them come and tease us with some of their crafty pop psychedelia. Check them out on this Episode of our FLU CAST.

Finally for this night , we finally finally welcomed Plastic Passion their second gig for F.L.U and their LAST EVER as the Plastic Passion we have come to know and love. This band of outsider punk misfits of the post punk rinsers is OVER. Their self recorded album Contrived Imagery, released in JAPAN. Hearts & Minds WON.


HOWEVER this is just the beginning for these punks. They are LAUNCHING their new band SAVANTS( www.myspace.com/wearethesavants) this SAT 25TH APRIL @ TOMMY FLYNN'S on the 360 Stage on the CAMDEN TRAWL 4:30PM. With the addition of DAN FATEL (Fatels/No Picasso) to this trio, THINGS ARE EXPECTED?
