Welcome to what’s probably the final Wyrd Ways Rock Show of 2024.
Some of you will, no doubt, be glad to know there’s no Christmas music in this week’s show. As per usual, it’s all new music.
While I’m here, there’s some people who need some help.
Studio Sevvven in north London is at risk of closure because their local council don’t like kinsksters, sex workers and queers having somewhere safe to do what they do. The council have decided to change the goalposts and are saying the studio needs a different type of licence than the one they have. They need money to pay a lawyer to put the council straight and more money to apply for the correct licence. Here’s the link to the GoFundMe.
Some of you may be wondering what this has to do with the Metal community. Well, aside from the fact that some of us are in the kink, sex worker and queer communities, there’s the issue of councils going after people who aren’t doing anything illegal for “moral” reasons, usually hand-in-hand with extreme right wing politics. It has to stop and we need to be part of stopping it by standing up for our fellow outsiders. Because that’s what we are in the Metal community – we’re outsiders, and thanks to Rob Halford and others, a bit part of our aesthetic comes from kink. OK, we don’t get it in the neck as badly as the queer and sex-worker communities especially do, but somebody’s got to start fighting back, and it might as well be us.
