16 March
The Vibrators: Knox played in Leeds on Sat. 13 March back on guitar for the first time for 22 months. The band played as a three-piece and seemed to be OK. The band will continue to play as a four-piece up to a few gigs before going off to Canada (12 - 30 May) where the band will return to being a three-piece.
3 March
The Vibrators: Recently completed a five-week European tour Vibrators/UK Subs which went very well. Knox was just singing in The Vibrators but is hoping to be back on guitar very soon, he's actually rehearsing up a lot of songs.
Painting: Knox did a bit of painting on the tour above. He has put 8 paintings from the tour up on the site. They're drawings and acrylic on A4 (approx.) size good watercolour paper and are mainly, 'patterny' sort of things, (quite nice colours!).
2009 NEWS
(25 Oct.) Back with The Vibrators, just singing, but maybe back on guitar soon.
2009 RECORDING NEWS:
DESPAIR ALBUM - this is a band I was doing before The Vibrators. (A possible cover idea of mine above, my memory of R. Crumb's comic.) A CD of this material plus some of my earlyish Vibrators demo's should be coming out soon on Cleopatra Records (a USA West Coast Label) - more news about this when it comes in. (Songs include Despair (pre-Vibrators) playing "Whips'n'Furs", "Claws In My Brain", "Sweet Sweet Heart", etc.)
URBAN DOGS ACOUSTIC ALBUM - This long awaited album is more than 3/4 done, recorded at Stan's (of Demented Are Go) studio, off Holloway Road, London. When Charlie gets back from Australia/New Zealand, and Japan, we'll have a go at finishing it off. Songs include Urban Dogs' favorites such as "Limo Life", "War Baby", "New Barbarians", and the Subs "Warhead" to mention a few, plus some new songs.
KNOX AND THE TRAILER TRASH ORCHESTRA - an album I recorded with that great country band from St Albans, The Trailer trash Orchestra, will be coming out probably around March next year. Has country versions of "Baby Baby" and "Juice On" plus plenty more other songs. (Above is a cover idea.)
