The "God save the queen" jubilee on june 4 was a great succes.

=============================
Against All Odds
Compilation cd with 26 killers tracks with 13 shit hot bands from all over the world playing 2 songs each there will be a free poster with this release and noonoo stickers the release date is mid june thats all we know so far.

====================
Yes as far as I know everything went in  according to plan.
I've attached a copy of the article to this.
 
I  hope all the events went off ok - have you had any feedback?
 
It would be  cool to mention some of the best ones on TotalRock, so please let me know what happened.
Best wishes,
Sarah
===================
Hey Nick,

The gig was awesome! A hell of a long bloody day (I did 12 hours
straight stage managing all the bands!!) but well worth it - and besides
I got all my grog for free! Very pissed at the end of the night!

I ended up having the whole gig videoed (with 3  cameras) and had
interviews done with every band. All bands were recorded on  either DAT
or Minidisc. I can't wait to see (and hear) the outcome. I also  had a
guy running around taking 'digital stills'.

As soon as I've got  any photo's, video's, recordings etc - I'll get in
touch and get as much as I can over to you. At the very least I should
be able to email you some of the photo's pretty soon.

Every band did 'God Save The Queen' - all in their own style - the
highlight for me though was our own Triple R band 'The RRRottens', they
were fucking amazing - they sounded just like the Pistols -  and they
were LOUD!!

Will be in touch soon with some photo's  (hopefully!).

Cheers,

Tim

Tonight we gonna put some pictures on  our website about the event

> it seems to have gone  well - though the Out-Rage continues in
> Australia until the 10th June

> Once i have all info i will do a short summary & send it to you
---> Yeah cool .. already produced a show to be  broadcasted end of june
again talking about the event .. playin' some  worlwide Punk CDs I
received recently .. to keep the memory alive  etc.

===============
Hi Nick just got news getting another childrens  story published end of
month, see attachment as you know I support the  Queen, but Camila Bowles is
one old slapper I can't stand, and she will be the down fall of the Royalty,
I cannot forgive her for what she done to  Diana, thanks Alan if you won't to
see anymore let me know
============
I need someone willing to contact other promoters in other countries

===============
i'll second that; it must have been a  hell of a task getting all of this stuff together, give yourself a pat of butter....
still nowt in the press locally, but it's what we expect up here - itv only had one camera to cover the whole of the region, so if there had been  two murders they could only have filmed at one!!!
we got our pix so stuff  'em

 

------------
now that you're big joob is done maybe you can consider doing some promo work for us?
 

The FUX

'3RRR God Save The Queen Royal Riot Benefit  Gig' - Monday 10 June (Queens Birthday Holiday) at The Esplanade Hotel, St.Kilda, Melbourne, Australia.......
-----------
hey,

hopefully this email reaches you all

in the aftermath (for most of us at least) of the event, i think one more thanks needs  to be done

Nick, you did a great job organising all this... people had  fun all over the world, some of us got our names in the papers, we even got to  piss a few people off :)

and i know at least my gig was better than the shit they had on tv


so thanks Nick, you created something out of nothing

god save the queen........

 

see ya all at the next one




=========
hey nick,
 
gig went ok, not great but about as big as i could have hoped for somethin in australia on a  tuesday night... there arent many punks around here
 
4 bands played,  somewhere between 30 and 40 people came to watch, everyone had a pretty good  time
 
we also got some live recordings of 2 of the bands
 
i think  a compilation is in order
 
did anyone else do any live recordings or  anything?
 




================================
Nick,
 
Here a nice desktop for your computer,
Tonight we gonna put some pictures on our  website about the event

my gig didnt go well at all :( i sat down in the library (acoustic) got through the song. no one noticed (and i was singing too)...then i went up and down the  elavator several times and everytime the door would open, i would start yelling  and playing...nothing..so i went to the CHILDRENS section and did it, and thats  when some bodys mom asked me to shut up. so then i jumped on a table, shouted ANARCHY and walked out...still no one cared...i had fun though...but i was hoping to at least stir up the wackenhut..oh well

==============================================
we came we saw we  climbed a ladder.....
about a hundred people or so turned up - no cops, no tv  unfortunately but we might get it into the local rag.
the set list was
anarchy
pretty vacant
we're from bradford
longside lane
no reason ( about the riots!!)
god save the queen

someone came to see us from worthing near brighton.....followed us up to the next gig where the bass  player did a simenon and smashed up his bass - some kid claimed it and we all  had to sign it for him; how cool is that for your first gig visit?
geting some of the pix downloaded tomorrow; we've played 3 gigs in 2 days and quite frankly my dear i'm fucked!!!! us old blokes can't cut it all the time you know, but all the same we followed your instruction to the letter and
WE FUCKIN' ROCKED!!!!!!!
be in touch
over and completely out

Well I just played GSTQ in honour of Outrage.
Shame I couldn't get a gig together...
But it sounds like some of the other guys had pretty successful endeavors.

=====================
it was an uneventful outrage here....banged out  "the" song and about 100 others to the delight of noone in particular!!!
######################
axepilot and i got together yesterday and jammed (he lives about 2 hours from me) we're going to be working on some stuff to record and post on g.com...look for it!
 
hope the outrage was a screaming blast!!!!!!

GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!
================================
Hello Nick,
 
It was a very great  succes our gig on the roof of Doornroosje club
A lot of people showed up, more than 100, we played 7 songs, and we started, ofcourse with God save
the  Queen
Also about 5 photographers, radio station interview and a television report, it was already today
on the television

So after all it was a great succes, tomorow we are at  least in two newspapers with pictures

God save the queen, we mean it man
 
 ===========================

The F.U.X. (as it is pronounced in the public media) is  originally from Allentown PA, a suburban "all-american" town directly between NYC and Philadelphia. The "outrage" events will run the entire week, reaching a high point on Saturday the 8th, with an all-age punk show for many bands of the  past few days from the area.

Hey Nick what can you do about getting us a  show in notts on July 11?

Jon

if you really get stuck for this area i MAY be able to pull a few strings at The Charlotte in Leicester for July

i'm  really not sure what you meant by "put a gig on in july for us" means - do you  mean PBD & the FUX ?

Nick

===========================

we may just play a rooftop and two pubs on the day - it's  like whatsisname who flew everywhere for bandaid on the day.....!

============================

by the way LORD LITTER & myself are talking about making this a yearly event as he thinks it will get bigger each year !! - Nick

===========================

Again good news, today we had a interview for a national radio station in Holland
about the june 4 jubile
It will broadcast  tommorow (saturday), about a couple of million listeners
Greetings Jozzy
The Radio station is called "Radio 3 FM" and the prgram is called "Leidse Kade Live"
For the dutch readers, it's tommorow at 8  o'clock in the evening

> "dutch news paper "De Gelderlander" today -
> this newspaper has 1 million readers each day, 'Out-Rage  2002' they write
> about
> The Bips, you as promotor and ofcourse the Sex Pistols"

======================

Nick - these are fantastic!
I'll talk to you more later -  but I just wanted to say that I mentioned Out Rage to Fat Wreck Chords - you  know the punk label - & they are thinking about putting something together!

======================

Hi Nick,
I hope everything is good with you!
 
I do my piece for TotalRock tomorrow - I'm on Malcolm Dome's show between 9pm and midnight, but I won't know the time until tomorrow,  its on www.totalrock.com or SKY 885.
 
I will talk about Out-rage 2002, give the web address and ask people to get involved! Is there anything else you want me to add?

===================

Please send as much information to Roy Peters about the june 4 event, his email is ******@*****
He is working at a national tv station in holland and he is intrested to make a documentary about the june 4 event.

=====================

if you want a short personal quote i'll be more than happy to put it alongside out-rage australia - which reflects what you all really think down there !!

later dude - Nick

=====================

I'll try to send you our recording of the song and and whatever else we can find (media and stuff).
