Piers of realm/Elbow update

NO Pier Here
With some inevitability another pier has burnt down.

From all these recent coastal conflagrations the reason seems clear piers are made of wood and chip fat and so burn easily and also once they are a blaze fire crews can’t get near to put enough water on to stop the fire.

The only ray of light in this story is that the present owner a Mike Simmons is better known as “comedian” Joey Blower thus taking the whole thing into episode Phoenix Nights.

Quicksilver music prize:
Hurrah that there Elbow have won that there Venus music prize. Seeing as they are one of favourite bands I'm made up for them.If you can catch them live on there present tour they truly great.
Here's a demo bside from a recent single to celebrate (it's about drinking to prove it's not just thrown together)
