Girl that posted kinky photos now trying to talk like she's in LA Law


Some broad from Caerphilly that insisted on showing everyone on London Calling photos of herself wearing not-very-much recently has stunned viewers with a dramatic u-turn.

Now she is demanding the removal of certain photographs, threatening lawsuits and using big words like 'violation' and 'permission'.

The broad implies that images of herself are worth enough money to go to court for. Regular poster Toffy however, disagrees, and has adjusted his original rating to penalise the broad for this change of attitude.

"I can post prickteaser photos of myself all I like, but the minute anyone tries to steal my thunder, I'll run to my photographer who'll squish you like a bug under the tyre of the Juggernaut that is commercial Copyright Law".

Vendetta Inc up and running.



Possibly the best idea ever? I think so. Showbooker Niesh, Tattooist Dom Holmes and Special Move frontman Scott have all joined forces to create Vendetta Inc.

From booking shows, to designs, to vegan and veggie food stalls at shows, to shirts, the three have come up with a concept that will take the hardcore scene by storm.

Click on the banner above and use their services.

We wish them all very good luck and look forward to Vendetta inc taking off.
The first appearance of the food stall will be at Facedown Fest at the dome.

Uproar at London Calling Members


Members of the London Calling board started a full blown war with the members of the collective zine board, it was reported this morning. The main culprite, a london calling member, was seen screaming Bulldoze lyrics and then was snapped "throwing chairs". Luckily, we were able to find the evidence and post it here, and she will be punished in due course. Please comment on what you feel would be an appropriate punishment on the board.
