The Meanies Get Their Arses Back On The Road
The Meanies will finally get their arses back into gear for the ‘Better Late Than Never Desperate Measures’ tour to make up for the tour that couldn’t happen when the ‘Desperate Measures’ album was released.
To tweak your interest again, The Meanies have dropped another video, this time for the song ‘Sousa’.
“When your waking world makes less sense than your dreams and the realities of the failed experiment slap you in the face like a cold fish you write a song like ‘Sousa’; not really in the hope of making any sense of it all but more as a futile salve for what ails ya.”
Any northerner worth his salt will fiercely defend his social status in any north-south divide discussions.
That can certainly be the case in the gritty world of film-making, and in particular that of award-winning Manchester-based writer and director Chris Green.
Now aged 53, Chris has come a long way since sitting in his bedroom as a teenager and knocking out tales about gangland life on his typewriter.
He has now founded ‘Shout to the Top’ Productions, and aims to direct some of that seemingly endless London bias up to the North of England with the help of some of the plentiful untapped local talent that is bursting to make an impact both nationally and, hopefully, internationally.
