This is a WYP photo-fit of a guy who stole about six quid in an armed robbery of an independent pet shop in Mirfield.

The suspect is described as a white man, aged in his late teens to early 20s

I used to work in regional news about 7/8 years ago and we did a lot of stories that came via the police, about a bookies being robbed or whatever. It was fairly common for the police press release to just say "the suspect is described as a black male". But if it was a white person they'd be wearing "a distinctive orange sports top" or whatever.

Junior Dictionary (LocalGarda), Friday, 6 March 2015 14:23 (nine years ago) link

I guess what I'm getting at is, why didn't all those black criminals wear more distinctive clothes?

Junior Dictionary (LocalGarda), Friday, 6 March 2015 14:26 (nine years ago) link

Does the phone number warrant inclusion here?

this documentary from the mid 90s about lanarkshire lad-rock band the gyres is about the funniest thing on the internet. like a spinal tap of post-oasis lad-bands, except these cunts are for real.

terrible quality sadly

There is one of these bands on the train into London, I think they got on at Wakefield

anvil, Sunday, 8 March 2015 18:26 (nine years ago) link

They have southern accents though, perhaps they are going home

anvil, Sunday, 8 March 2015 18:26 (nine years ago) link

I made a mistake, they got off the train, and there were around 12 of them. I think they were coming back from a school trip. one of them looked like he was in one of these bands, he was the only one I saw. The very loud drunk one was a different person and i only saw him when they all got off. He looked like a minor royal in a navy sweater

Nearby there were two women who didnt know each other, then they got talking and i could overhear them, and they knew some of the same places and they warmed to each other, but a little later as inhibitions dropped i think one realized the other wasn't the sort of person she liked at all. By this point the other one was suddenly quite drunk and didnt notice the first one stopped enjoying the conversation

The saying 'can't see the wood for the trees' could easily be applied to Manchester's music scene... So many bands, so much attitude, so much history. Keen to stand apart from their contemporaries, The Jade Assembly are in this for the long haul and for the right reasons, nothing is fabricated or posed, their attitude comes from an inescapable force of conviction in their music.
From the passion of Watson and Danny's rhythm section, to the raw power of Smed's guitar work, each Jade Assembly tune has a clear sense of purpose, nothing is contrived.
Central to their main point of difference is John Foster (Foz), a true northern poet and songwriter that places honesty above favour, a frontman who possesses an imposing sense of belief, not devoid of arrogance - but full of commitment.
As John puts it "Every word counts. Some people can't see the wood for the trees, but if you don't see The Jade Assembly - you're missing the best bit of the forest..."

''Best Guitar band since Kasabian''
Clint Boom, XFM/Inspiral Carpets

''Flying flags and empowering crowds, with their anthemic rock and roll, The Jade Assembly are he enthusiastic spawn of the Britpop ere''
Emily Schofield, The Mover Music Blog

''The Jade Assembly enter like a hurricane and instantly blow away any audience drawn into their path''
Frank Floyd, Louder Than War

''What sets aside The Jade Assembly from the plethora of indie-rock try hards that litter the music scene of the modern day is that the band are not merely going through the motions of a tired genre but reinventing it, giving it new life and allowing it to rise from its own ashes''
Ian Critchley , Louder Than War

''TJA are one of, if not the most, interesting band swimming in an otherwise tepid sea of indie-rock'' Ian Critchley Louder than war
''The Jade Assembly what you do is amazing''

Our Fold are a growing group of like minded musical people lead by a 4 piece alternative indie/rock band from Bolton. Selling out local shows in and around Manchester, the momentum is growing after every show. Gainging support from the likes of XFM, BBC 6 Music and Amazing radio, the band are currently working on finishing the debut album that should be ready to pleasure your ear canals late 2014.

Biography
Damien Robertson and Shaun Drysdale fucked about writing songs but after a good piss up and the introduction of wee Dodge (Craig Reid - who also plays bass for City Rain) and the further introduction of Craig Dyce and Mikey Ward they formed muggers lane in Nov 06 in Dunfermline. The self-acclaimed stars of the future, have impressed with their strong lyrics and belief in their musical potential. This is a band to watch for 2007.

Muggers Lane are a Fife based band with a blend of Indie, Punk, Dance and good old fashioned Rock and Roll, Muggers Lane originally formed in 2007 only to split up in 2008.
In this short time Muggers Lane gained a large following and a reputation as one of Scotland's best up and coming bands at a time when the talent was rife.
In May 2013 Muggers Lane reformed with all the original members, they are now ready to make their mark on the UK music scene.
