Ok some of you will know that i've been DJ'ing at the Devonshire Arms in Camden for about 8 years.
And through the Dev, I made a lot of great friends and i've met alot of great people. The Devonshire Arms will always hold a great big warm fuzzy shape in my heart.
But times change, and after the managment change I felt very bad for staying there and not walking out and supporting Janine and Robin.
I felt it was my duty to still try and keep a part of the Dev the same as it had been musicly with the Propaganda TV and Propaganda J-Rock nights.
But the Dev has changed and seems to changing for the worse.
As a member of staff I am polite and curtious to the members of the public (Punters) and I try and play a broad range of music when I can. but being subjected to Verbal and then pysical abuse by one of the Punks on Monday 2 weeks ago I have now Quit the Devonshire.
I feel I was not supported correctly by the mangement of the Devonshire Arms (A Hobgoblin pub) and the Client involved has not been barred even though he threatned me with a bar stool!
And thus I have not been able to collect my equipment from the Pub/ any monies owed as he now seems to have become a resident of the pub because he thinks he can do no wrong!
P.S I have nothing against Punks, as a thirteen year old boy I had my first mohawk (green) and my first pair of DM's were nicked for me by the local punks from my area. and I've always had a great respect for the music and the art of punk it's self although when i was growing up I leaned away from my punk roots and through the likes of punk/goth cross over bands and finaly into Industrial.
but now onto business.
Propaganda TV and Propaganda J-Rock are not dead!
I start DJ/VJ'ing at The Intrepid Fox on the 7th of July with the First Jrock night of the month. and then contiune every Monday after that with Propaganda TV, as a regular feature in the Private area upstairs.
Hope you can all support the cause
