Anyways, expect to see the Irregulars hook up with a blip account soon enough, but for now, here's a gem from a pseudononymous friend: [youtube NG2EGOB9-lc] http://worshipstirregulars.com/2008/09/01/new-music/ Well, we managed to ignore the blog for the last week; slow news indeed. Part of this is because we popped down to Devon, ancestral homeland of one of the Irregulars, for Shaldon Regatta; a proper break from the city life that was needed by all involved. Organising a little ... http://worshipstirregulars.com/2008/08/28/welcome-back/ Slow news week over at Irregular Towers, so I thought I'd take this opportunity to welcome my new niece into the World.

But seriously, Theme Park ... http://worshipstirregulars.com/2008/08/13/crash/ So Field Day has jaunted into the festival season with a well-deserved "fuck you" swagger. The line-up is making my mouth water. It's like a definitive list of the best djs currently involved in the London music scene bringing heavyweights such as Eat Your Own Ears, Beyond the Wizard's Sleeve ... http://worshipstirregulars.com/2008/08/09/field-o-win/ Guest post There’s a strong chance I am alone on this, but personally I like my rock venues to be shit scary.
