Turn up the volume! *** "Crude, lewd, rude and socially unacceptable" are just some of the accurate descriptions of Rough Trade's act. Carole Pope, born in Manchester, England, and Kevan Staples, born in Toronto, met at an audition for a group called "Deva Loca Sideshow" in 1968. Neither joined the band, but they became friends, and put together a group called "O" which played the coffeehouse circuit during 1969-1970. "O" was featured in the film "Osaka '70," made for the World's Fair held in Osaka, Japan. Kevan Staples recalls, "The film chronicled the travels of a bus trip across Canada and we were in the part about Toronto. We played on top of the bus in front of city hall. It was Carole, myself and our dear friend Clive Smith playing piano. This was the group 'O.' Clive was from England where he had played with the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band and went to school with Pete Townshend and many other fab gear rave limey types. He is a terrific guy and now a very successful partner in an animation company called Nelvana." After "O" disbanded in 1971, Pope and Staples formed "The Bullwhip Brothers," which was mainly the duo on guitars, with an occasional electric piano player, and friends sitting in on <b>...</b>

THE INDUSTRY The writer John Updike once observed "Sex is like money; only too much is enough." According to recent studies the sex industry generates worldwide revenues over $90 billion annually exceeding the combined revenue of all professional football, basketball and baseball franchises in the US Of that amount an estimated $20 billion is derived from male prostitution a practice dating back to antiquity. In ancient Greece prostitutes were mainly orphaned boys or slaves while in the islamic world they were looked upon as inferior - even though their services were frequented nonetheless - and in ancient rome male prostitutes were celebrated with their own holiday. In the US male prostitution dates back to the late 17th century evidenced by court records and vice investigations. Today they are referred to as "escorts, hustlers, and rent boys" 25% of whom work in the pornographic industry itself while the others mainly work independently of pimps or infrequently through an agency. The phrase "rough trade" is an industry expression that refers to a male prostitute who will provide his services to men as well as women. THE VIDEO Incorporating two different editing styles - my purpose in making this video is to present a gritty street feel to the subject matter of male prostitution. This is my first attempt at experimenting in a substantial way with the use of "bursting" along with the "cutaway" (double imaging) effects in editing. In order to overcome the limitations of <b>...</b>

She'll gladly "Yank Your Chain!" A day in the life of former New York City waitress, comedian, Kate Rigg. This clip is from "her act" filmed at Joe's Pub at the Public Theater, New York City. Originally from Canada and Australia, Kate currently resides in LA. Kate's comedy career began after she graduated with an acting degree from The Juilliard School. The allure of the club scene drew her to Caroline's Comedy Club, NYC, where she quickly was slotted for a series of appearances and features showcasing her particular brand of character based comedy, edgy socio-political commentary, Asian American slanted jokes, and in your face dirty girl talk. She has brought this funky urban Asian sensibility to The Kennedy Center, The Smithsonian Institute, Chicago Museum of Modern Art, and The Public Theater... (to name a few). She has preformed at the Montreal Just for Laughs Festival, the Toyota Comedy Festival, The Marshalls Women in Comedy Festival, and developed her first comedy and music revue for NBC's PSNBC in New York, and the HBO Time Warner workspace in Los Angeles. This show "Kate's Chink-O-Rama: featuring the chinkorama dancers" is a New York city favorite at Joe's Pub at the Public Theater, and has toured extensively to comedy festivals, colleges and special events around the Country. Her follow up "Birth of a nASIAN" a collection of characters, stand up and trip hop spoken word, was part of the Mark Taper Forum's Summerfest, was developed at La Mama ETC, New York City <b>...</b>

Mumford and Sons play live at Rough Trade East, London E1 on 4 November 2008, to celebrate the release of their second EP. The songs included here are Little Lion Man and Roll Away Your Stone. Little Lion Man originally appeared on the limited edition Chess Club EP, Love Your Ground. Roll Away Your Stone originally appeared on the limited edition Chess Club EP, Lend Me Your Eyes. Newly recorded versions of both songs will be included on Mumford and Sons' debut album, Sigh No More, released on 5 October 2009 on Gentlemen of the Road/Island Records. Little Lion Man will be released as a single on 28 September 2009. The official video can be seen on the band's MySpace now. Update: 19 months ago I saw this amazing band for the first time (at this gig); playing to a couple of hundred people in a record store in East London. For months afterwards I was banging on about them to anyone that would listen, saying "These guys are going to be big!" "Yeah right", they said, "Sounds like an antique dealers or something". Well people, last weekend the 'antique dealers' packed 18000 people into the John Peel Stage tent at Glastonbury. 18000 people that knew every word of almost every song. I hate to say I told you so but.... Well done lads, you deserve it!

Mumford and Sons play two amazing new songs live at Rough Trade East, London E1 on 4 November 2008. Marcus & co were performing instore to celebrate the release of their second EP, Love Your Ground. The new songs featured here are Thistle and Weeds and Dust Bowl Dance. Sadly, due to my memory card being full, Dust Bowl Dance has the end missing which is unfortunate, as the story has a denouement - but, hey, go see them live and find out what happens at the end! Mumford and Sons' very lovely new EP was released on 3 November on the super cool Chess Club label on 10" vinyl. I would advise buying a copy very soon, as the debut EP has now sold out and Love Your Ground, no doubt, will follow suit. Update: Both songs are now available on Mumford & Sons amazing debut album, Sigh No More, along with the singles Little Lion Man and Winter Winds.
