NEN podcasters Paul and Gary met with Pete and Tommy from The Wurzels, just before their fantastic and cider-drenched show at the O2 in Islington. What followed was an insightful interview about worm-charming, and a recording of Pete (the lead singer) reading 'A Very Scary Story', as written by Paul and Gary.

Würzel, who spent eleven years driving the Motorhead sound as guitarist, died on Saturday . The news was announced to fans by Lemmy during the band's set at Sonisphere. Born Michael Burston, his life was one of an army spell, building work and small pub bands until having the closest thing you can to a Walt Disney story when Lemmy is involved. He read that Motorhead had lost a guitarist, sent off a letter and tape (ask your parents, kids), and - at the age of thirty - found himself in a major band. [...]
Motörhead fans, lower your heads. Michael "Würzel" Burston, the former guitarist of the band, passed away on Saturday, July 9th at the age of 61. The cause of death is said to have been complications from heart disease. Würzel joined Motörhead in 1984 and stayed with the band until 1995. Prior to that, he was a corporal in the army and played in a series of other bands. The name Würzel came from his comparison to a TV character named Worzel Gummidge. He would add the umlaut to his name after he [...]
Alestorm Back Through Time Napalm Records 03 June 2011 by Tom Dare Pirate metallers Alestorm stand accused not of piracy on the high seas, but of being insufferably shite. However, innocent until proven guilty and all that. So, by the power invested in me by my keyboard, I present to you the latest evidence: Back [...]
Sunday at Camp Bestival continued in exactly the same way as the two previous days. Perfect festival weather, an eclectic mix of music and good vibes all round. The once Mercury nominated Seth Lakeman , a late addition to the bill, drew a significant crowd to the bandstand stage to witness him play songs from his new album Hearts and Minds as well as some older material. His rootsy hoedown and folkish marching songs got to the tribal core and soul of human emotion and went down a [...]
When you have a blog, you can do all sorts of daft things. Like posting a track that gets you shut down , for instance. But today, I'm going to post something for one person, and one person only. She knows why. MUAH HA HAAAA! Happy birthday, Kate! MP3: Combine Harvester by The Wurzels (and thanks Rob for the help!) Note: It wouldn't be fair for me to post this track and not explain who made it. The Wurzels were [...]
Oh shit. It's Tuesday and I've still got to get two more out before the kickoffs. Not putting out the first eleven for the England-related songs today. Well they are playing a friendly - and one of these tunes isn't actually about the team... I'll explain: Have you discovered the delights/wonders/downright weirdness as posted on CosmoBells yet...? Well now you will. WARNING: Some images over there are NSFW What you'll [...]
As globally reported over the last day or so (well Somerset anyway) , The Wurzels have decided to pull out of their Glastonbury slot this weekend. Artistic differences have been blamed & all seventeen of their fans are said to be inconsolable . I`m sure festival organiser `Michael Eavis` is very disappointed a spot between `Iggy Pop` & `Babyshambles` wasn`t available. The Wurzels : Combine Harvester
