May 6th is time to Vote


Unless you dont get out that often you will be very aware from the campaign posters and appearances of party candidates left right and centre that an Election has been on the cards.
Gordon Brown will go to Buckingham palace this morning in order to ask the Queen permission for a May 6th General Election.
What does this mean for you? We'll if you are not on the electoral role then it is most definately time to register for your vote. You have till the 22nd of April to register.
We at Misticon just wanted to urge all of the lovely Misticon ladies not to be part of the silent generation and make sure you guys get down to the polling stations!
(Don't worry we wont go as far as old Paris with the Vote or Die! Slogan)

No Commuters after train strikes

Well the strikes may have very well been called off but that doesnt mean it hasnt had an impact on the number of commuters using the rail services today. If like me you commute and you decided to brave it anyway you will have noticed that the trains are a whole lot emptier today. So where are all the commuters gone?
We want to here from people like you who commute? Are you going into work this week- or did you rearrange annual leave or make working at home arrangements.
We will keep you informed. But it seems like it might just be a very nice week to travel by trains. Everything running on time and a seat for everyone.

Video of the week

This weeks video of the week was chosen by Misticon Man Ben aka Jerry( you can find him being mute on twitter @misticon_jerry). He had no clue that when he played this over and over again at the Misticon barbeque we'd thank him by making this our video of the week!

Rock Out With Your Glock Out!

Hello fashion victims!

Welcome to my second ramble! I write to you with red hair dye dripping onto my lap top and Tiga blasting from the speakers. I'm meant to be packing for Barcelona this weekend but I have seriously got the writing bug since posting Ska's not Dead via the lovely Hannah the other day!

This is why I'm back and wondering if you've got your Bank Holiday plans sorted yet?! Yes, you say? Ah good. Well I have an idea for your next Bank Holiday activity already... I'm full of ideas at the moment you see! So, how do beaches, bars and balloons sound to you? Awesome? Yep, that's what I thought too! So you should head down to Bournemouth for the first May Bank Holiday and head to the awesome 60 Million Postcards bar. It's near the beach, it's a bar and you have a view of the Bournemouth Eye (a gigantic hot air balloon in the centre of town) from the front entrance, probably! Do you like The Lock Tavern in Camden or the Amersham Arms in New Cross? Well Postcards is run by the same people and has the same sorts of ultra cool DJ line ups and quirky events. Namely Rock Out With Your Glock Out! Which will be happening on Friday 30th April at Postcards. Entry is free too! Sweet!

Like hip hop? Like cock rock? Well ROWYGO is combining the two with it's hip hop vs glam rock night! Just think AC/DC vs Wu Tang Clan, Def Leppard vs The Pharcyde, Motley Crue vs Snoop Dogg, NWA vs Whitesnake, Aerosmith vs Public Enemy, KISS vs Public Enemy.... Get the idea?! Cool.

I am DJing at the night and will be flying the flag for all things cock rock, hair metal, glam and guilty (pleasures, that is). I have partnered up with Lee:Geek, one half of the Geek Chic Soundsystem; who will be on hip hop duties for our set! Lee is also one of my closest friends so I can't wait to be behind the decks with him! I am also gutted though as I am missing the Geek Chic boys DJing at Fabric for Adventures in a Beetroot Field on the 1st of this month! It's the same night as the Airbourne show. Lame. But the line up is wicked for AITBF, and if you are stuck for something to do, I'd definitely head down to the electro/indie disco/alt/rave party.

May Bank Holiday. Get involved!

Much love,

Japan Fashion Week fails to deliver.

This wasn't what we were expecting from the home harijuki girls. Aparantly the word is with our fashion contacts is that they were less than impressed with the designs too!
