After seeing in the new year by hosting a Surrealist-themed party and then grappling with a bad cold, here’s a somewhat belated overview of 2014 and a look at the coming year. (more…)

Monday, January 12th, 2015What’s new in the moogosphere?
Tuesday, October 14th, 2014Things have been quiet here at moogieman.com but there has in fact been quite a lot going on. First of all I’ve managed to produce the first live video from the EP launch gig at the Albion Beatnik back in July, so here I am with the Masochists playing When We Vicariously Touch.
Next, I’ve been editing a brand new video for Marine Peilstand Drei (MP3). (more…)

Long awaited Extended EP (E2P) out on 3 July
Wednesday, May 14th, 2014
The Moogiemedia team is pleased to announce that after many months of hard studio work, several months of deliberation and a few months of indecision (not necessarily in that order) the Extended EP (E2P) will be released on 3 July.
The occasion will be marked with a launch gig at the Albion Beatnik Bookstore (more…)
Last chance to get the Moogieman Xmas CD single
Thursday, December 19th, 2013There are a few copies left of the Moogieman CD single, My Origami Christmas Tree. There will be a chance to pick one up tonight at Catweazle, or over the next few days.
The single comes wrapped in an origami cover and includes a DIY kit to make your own origami Christmas tree with high quality Japanese paper.
Moogieman and the Masochists: we have lift off
Tuesday, December 3rd, 2013The new Moogieman band played a short but arresting set at George’s Jamboree last night. Alongside Vincent Lynch on electric drums, the Masochists include Claire LeMaster on keyboard. We should hopefully see some full-length Moogieman and the Masochists gigs early in the new year.
The history of the Kaddiska Mu Stellar club part 3
Monday, November 4th, 2013It was the Catweazle Club’s 19th anniversary recently so here is the next episode in my continuing saga, The history of the Kaddiska Mu-Stellar Club (see also The history of the Kaddiska Mu-Stellar Club: Part 2).
In the last few years it has become something of a tradition (albeit a tradition invented and observed by me alone) to recount excerpts from the history of the Kaddiska Mu Stellar Club, an open mic on the planet Oxford in the Sopdet binary star system. (more…)
Night of the living books
Thursday, May 16th, 2013
So, the last In The Spotlight – the boutique semi-open variety night at the Albion Beatnik Bookstore, run by Moogieman and Lewis Newcombe – coincided with World Book Night.
‘What’s World Book Night?’ I hear you ask, ‘and is it related to World Book Day?’ Normally you’d expect the night to immediately follow, apart from some unspecified but certainly brief twighlight period, the day.

Christmas In the Spotlight
Monday, December 17th, 2012
You may have heard rumours about a monthly variety night at the Albion Beatnik Bookstore in Jericho, run by Moogieman and Lewis Newcombe, where there is not only a mix of spoken word and musical performances but also regular improvised acting slots and even, it is whispered, a drawing competition.

Presidential election in the spotlight
Thursday, November 22nd, 2012Right, so first I should probably mention that along with my compadre Lewis Newcombe I’ve been putting on a variety night called In The Spotlight. This takes place monthly on a Tuesday in the Albion Beatnik Bookstore and incorporates music, poetry, storytelling and improv acting. There’s also a regular drawing competition. More on this later …
For this month’s Spotlight I wrote an election-themed poem in honour of the world’s most important democractic constest (more…)
