EDITORS BIT... What we get up to when we’re not screaming on facebook at Landlords and Promoters to send us their listings for the DERBY GIG GUIDE. INSIDE THE MOONSHINE SHACK... While I was DJ -ing at Americana this year Sam Woodrow Moonshine photographer went around and took loads of photo’s so we’ve gathered a few together put them in a booklet and they are now on line for you to look at or download, go to www.mickmoonshine.co.uk Well it’s time to chuck some logs on the fire, that time of year when we only do a couple of gigs a month cause of the weather and I’m mellowing out it’s an age thing, I’m leaning more towards the entertainment nights, more than disco, its more laid back, you can dance, shoe shuffle, it’s foot tappin hand clappin stuff, not everybody wants to go to the pub at the weekend and have their ears blown off or be, blinded by the light… ain’t that a song… so we do laid back Rock n Roll, Blues, Country and some Rock classics, it really is a trip down memory lane, and I’ve had some brilliant feedback and bookings for next year. So now it’s CD time, lots to listen to. Oh talking of feedback, some great words of encouragement with The ‘Inside The Moonshine Shack magazine so I’m going to do a bio monthly full colour available at selected outlets or mail order.

Pistol Pete Wearn takes a wrong turning from the lakes of Louisiana, drifting down the Trent, finally taking refuge at the Barge Inn at Long Eaton. Armed with his allies in his quest for the finest bluesy sounds, in the form of a stomp box named Duncan, a harmonica, and a homemade acoustic guitar thrown in. Usually Pete is accompanied by Ash Jones and Mick Askey to form the trio .44 pistols, the band being responsible for the album, live at the vaults featuring tracks salvation, shake your money maker and born in the borderlands. However on this occasion the jars of Moonshine are flowing as Pete serenades a sedate Sunday audience with an eclectic mix of original and covers of classic and unknown blues songs. There's also a twist which sees a few sixties rock and roll covers restyled with a delta blues edge with white stripes track seven nation army receiving the same treatment. The familiarity of retro sixties songs spiced up and remixed worked a treat to entice listeners to convert to a blues persuasion. Pistols' expert musical skills meant he fluently negotiated from acoustic guitar to harmonica while never missing a beat on his stomp box. If you missed out fear not as his new four track E.P glorious high fidelity is available for download on band camp or keep an eye out for the next .44 pistols gig. LULU DAVENPORT John Illsley Band The Flowerpot Saturday 27th September 2014 This was indeed a rare treat, John Illsley one of the founding members of one Britain’s best-loved bands, Dire Straits playing The Flowerpot. The show was split into two sets featuring a mixture of John’s solo songs, in particular showcasing tracks from his brilliant new album Testing The Water and some of the best known songs from the Dire Straits years. Illsely’s superb band featured the fantastic Phil Palmer on guitar, Phil actually played in the touring band for the Dire Straits On Every Street World Tour 1991-92. The band took to the stage launching into a stunning version of Walk Of Life and then Expresso Love. John told stories in between some of the songs and made a joke about the fact that the long gap between solo albums was down to him being a slow writer. Highlights from the first set included a flawless Private Investigations, new song Sometimes, So Far Away and ended with the brilliant Sultans Of Swing. The second set featured more tracks from the new album including Darling Heart, Testing The Water and the stunning Railway Tracks, a song written while John was in hospital. These songs illustrate just how good a songwriter John Illsley is, interspersed with choice Dire Straits cuts as Romeo and Juliet and Two Young Lovers. The band then treated us to Calling Elvis, a very powerful rendition of Brothers In Arms before ending with a superb version of Money For Nothing in which Phil Palmer really came into his own as a great guitar player that he is and the crowd were cheering and singing along. John Illsley and company came back to the stage and encored with The Bug, a great song to end a really good gig on. This is possibly one of the best gigs ever staged at The Flowerpot and a rare treat to have such a legendary musician from one of the UK’s bestloved bands playing this intimate venue. This was one of those gigs that will be remembered by all those present for many years to come. Kevin White. Fri 21st TICK TICK BOOM Marstons Social Club, Burton. LULU & MICK MOONSHINE @ THE BARGE John Illsley Interview 2014 The legendary John Illsley from Dire Straits, and solo artist having recorded the solo albums Never Told A Soul (1984), Glass (1988) and Street’s Of Heaven (2010) is back with a brand new album. Testing The Water was recorded and released earlier this year and John is out on tour in September and October to promote it. The Derby Telegraph caught up with him ahead of his headline show at The Flowerpot. Why the long gap in between albums? I’m a slow writer and I also like to paint and do occasional exhibitions so I do albums when I’m ready. What were the inspirations for the songs on Testing The Water? Mainly just reflections on what was going on in my life and the things around me On this tour you are playing a mix of solo songs and Dire Straits hits, will these be as we remember them or new interpretations? I try and play the Dire Straits songs the way they were made –not the same but a pretty good rendition I think. Are you looking forward to going back out on the road? I’ll let you know when we are done! But yes I have a great bunch of musicians , (I am) happy to say Phil Palmer who played guitar on the last Dire Straits’ tour is joining us. Are we going to hear any new material from you, if so, what can we expect? You will hear songs from the new CD ‘Testing the Water” and some Dire Straits classics Sultans=Brothers in arms – Money for nothing= walk of life – Romeo and Juliet etc. Is it true that the song Railway Tracks was written while you were in hospital? The new album, Testing The Water is out now and for more information on John Illsley including tour dates have a look at www.johnillsley.com. It was written in hospital whilst having a stem cell transplant for leukaemia. Kevin White. Do you have any particular favourite songs on the album and which ones are they? Not particularly they all have a different resonance for each other but somehow hold together. I also read your interview in the Daily Mail about your cancer and recovery, a remarkable story. Did your illness inspire any of the songs on the album? Yes -"Railway tracks " and" When God made time " It is good to see you back out on the road in support of a great new album. When was the last time you toured? Quite a while ago, but this is only a few dates not that long. How does it feel playing pubs and theatres after playing arenas and stadiums with Dire Straits? Do you enjoy having closer contact with the audience? I like the smaller venues –more intimate and less fuss. Have you as a solo artist or a member of Dire Straits experienced any Spinal Tap moments and would you share these? When the canopy above my head ripped in the middle of a massive rain storm in Germany during Private Investigations and I was nearly knocked off my feet by the vast amounts of water. Landmark traditional Derby pub, great beer, great food and regular live music. 6 real ale pumps including regular guest ales with discount for Camra members.

LIVE MUSIC NOVEMBER Sat 15th HARRIET Fri 21st SAY NO MORE 22nd HERRON BROTHERS 28th ELECTRIX 29th URBAN LEGENDS p13 SACKO'S SHIT LIST People say to me 'is there anything in life you actually like?' and I have to say yes, of course. Lots of things. I can't thing of anything specific offhand but I can be sure of one thingwhatever it is they'll stop making it, close it down, turn it into something different or fuck it up somehow. They'll turn my local into a karaoke bar, the chippy will become a kebab house, they'll change the deal at a rock venue to make it worse for you and stop distributing rock mags anywhere but Derby and so on. Somehow it'll get bollocksed up by the sort of wanker who wants you to join in the fun, usually involving something cuntish like pouring cold water over yourself or wearing fancy dress. What can you do? Not a lot sadly but you can let the world know what shithole full of shitheads it is. And on that note... People in the music scene who are too fucking idle to advertise in this mag. Bands, venues, promoters... Moonshine needs you to advertise. You need Moonshine to advertise you. You want people to know about your gigs don't you? Well, don't you? I assure you your talent alone is a thing of total unconcern to the average rock fan, you may be the best axeman since Hendrix but if you don't advertise nobody knows do they? Just think. The world is full of people frothing to read the latest shit list and who knows, they may even give the rest of the mag a cursory glance and spot your ad. And there are millions out there who read this just to find fault and send me emails and letters starting with 'for your information' and 'actually' and provide me with bog paper and stuff to clean the guinea pigs out, a whole readymade audience of the sort of cunts you don't really want in your shows but whose money is as good as the next man's. So what are you waiting for? Too busy trimming up? People who put Christmas decorations up before Christmas. Back in the days when we used to string up murderers and the like (we lived in a less violent society you see), when the prisoner sat in the condemned cell awaiting his new choker chain, the guards attempted to keep him jolly and not let him dwell on his impending doom as far as that was possible. They'd make light talk, play cards and other games, Scrabble, Monopoly, I Spy.....that kind of thing. They never, ever taunted the poor soul with a game of fucking hangman though did they? No, and why? Because they had feelings and did not want to rub in the ghastly end that awaited the victim. So why do people delight in taunting the innocent victim with fucking Christmas stuff in October? I have seen houses trimmed up like bastard Blackpool and it isn't even Bonfire Night yet-though if I see too many it will be, let me tell you. In the name of humanity, isn't it bad enough that the dread day awaits us in a few short weeks? You don't have to torture us beforehand, we know it's coming, we know what horror we have to face, demented women rampaging through the land scavenging the shop shelves cleaner than any vulture picked a corpse, the dates, the tangerines, the Advocaat, the awful scenes in the pubs and the sheer unremitting torment of the telly. Please, anything but celebrity quizzes and the Christmas Episode of the Vicar Of Dibley...hang me now, I'll bring my own rope. Now normally I can't stand poetry but I'll nick a bit of Coleridge here.. 'Like one that on a lonesome road doth walk in fear and dread, Because he knows a frightful fiend doth close behind him tread'. That frightful fiend is Christmas and it's devilish disciples are at fucking work in a house near you. You know and they know when Christmas is really here-the Easter Eggs go on sale. Calls about the accident I had. About three times a day I get a phone call from a number I don't recognise. So like the fool I am I answer it, it may be a lesson or a gig offer. But no, it is always some GIT who wants to talk about the accident I had two years and the three grand waiting for me. The only accident I had was 25 years ago, cost me a fortune, and if I had only insured myself with a johhny I'd have saved thousands. But for some reason they don't want to talk about that. I haven't had an accident. Are you sure, sir? Yes I am sure sir. I once farted and followed through whilst on a bus but otherwise I'm sure. The latter was I thought, a suitable comment on Trent Barton's services anyway. I might do the same later today in fact. And they do actually say that £3000 is waitng for you. Don't they legally have to pay up then? I might try that. Then you get the automated 'listen to this important message'. No YOU listen to THIS important message. Stop ringing me and fuck off. And when you get there fuck off from there too. Then keep fucking off till you are out of fucking sight. Then fuck off some more. Or you'll have an accident all right. Sex Surveys As published in the tabloids from time to time, usually when they've run out of things to print about nonentity celebrities, scares about food and doleys. Ooooh the scandal, tut tut tut.....Oooh the bullshit-and is ANYONE shocked by this stuff these days? God I could save them some time, not in doing a survey because they don't REALLY do them, someone makes them up in the office when bored, like horoscopes and the problem page. No need to make anything up, I'll tell it like it is, truthfully. Our 'shocking' survey reveals that 57% of men have fantasised about a threesome. And 43% are lying because there isn't a man alive who hasn't fantasised about that. And there are about three who have had a go. Oh they'll tell you they have but trust me, they're lying because there is no topic on earth that people lie about more than sex. All blokes multiply the amount of women they've had by three and all women divide it by three for a start. Our shocking survey reveals that 46% of women have used a sex toy. Nope. 100%. If you think your missus hasn't got one somewhere you fool only yourself. What did you think that buzzing in the bathroom was, the immersion heater? Our survey revealed that 42% of women have had a one night stand. They mean 100% and they just misread the question as afternoons don't count. And the best one? The survey revealed that every woman on our street-bar one-has fucked the gas man. I told the wife that and she said 'that'll be that stuck up cow at number 32'.
