DERBY MUSIC NEWS SPECIAL #1

Thought I'd take the opportunity to draw your attention to the closest that Derby has to the Television Personalities (see below), they being the unpredictable but thoroughly charming (see the connection? see? see?) Mascot Fight.

Formed in 2004 by Tom John and Doddsy (no, I've not missed a comma out there), they've been cutting their teeth in the three buildings that will let them in this city ever since. Often ramshackle and on one occasion to the point of delivering the most shambolic (and debatably, the best) gig I've ever seen their melodic charms more often than not manage to find a way through the mayhem.

Thanks to their MySpace page you don't have to take my word for it. Go there to hear the fine, fine 'Thinking in French'.

Doddsy Fight : Pre-Sauve.

On a seperate Derby note - The Parents can be found supporting The Glitterati at the as-yet-unbulldozed Victoria Inn this evening. Head down there whenever you're ready.
