warrior1 Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 This is certainly taking a dramatic turn for the worse. Looks like things are warming up in Windsor!...thanks for the post update. I reckon anybody who's the slightest bit interest will soon figure it out http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=svengalifest+forum welcome Curious Folk of Windsor ! the newspaper office is just around the corner, and I need speak to them about our upcoming Selecter gig, so I could put it to them ... though it's quite reasonable coverage, considering they were the media sponsor ...

warrior1 Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Hi..rock on where is he doing his promoting this time?..it migt be a good idea to warn bands as well as venue owners...I will do it with pleasure... well, funny you should say that - word on the 'fest front has gone quiet...BUT...he is starting up his interesting band nights again so he is staying in windsor, even though he's not chasing the music. watch this space I guess.

warrior1 Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 our chances of meeting ever are slim but I will commit the name to memory as the world they say is never big enough..thanks for the info. the scotch bar in windsor I think on thursday nights. i think its called itchy feet but don't hold me to that. gets out of not paying bands, pomises the earth but never delivers...the usual! bascially as someone else has said on here anything with marco iorio on it avoid. - good advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gypsy moth Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 hey , hello, re svengali capers!! I went shopping in windsor and his record shop is all empty like a ghost town, torn down posters and a1/2 open door like he had just done a runner, wow! this festival f**k up really hit him hard didnt it? now hes living in secret somewhere in the royal borough! under a hedge!!! clutching all his precious beatles albums that no one ever wanted from his over priced poxy shop. deary me , maybe he should have gone into something a bit more ordinary, not festivals or anything to do with music , maybe sandwich making or cutting OAP's hair.

warrior1 Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 yeah I thought that was a bit odd...you saw that on his myspace too...I tghink he must be a bit confused as well as a liar! Nice attitude to have when promoting a festival in the 21st century . Still I'm sure the ravers out there won't mind not having to run his particular gauntlet...

Ringo_Spar Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 Maybe he's gone off to find Richey Edwards so that he can put on the original line-up Manics next year... With special guest appearance by Elvis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
