VINCENT FLATTS FINAL DRIVE
f you've seen the Birmingham (UK) band on the road, you'll know what they're all about. If not, you'll figure it out real fast once you hear 'em. Essentially, Vincent Flatts Final Drive is a southern-infused, blues 'n boogie band, with country rock and exciting boogie at its core. But while the music goes through the genre gears, one thing is constant: Steve 'Bertie' Burton's killer voice.

The New Cranes
The Newcranes are quite literally a 10-legged punk-folk guerrilla assault on the senses, with songs that can lift a room harmoniously whilst retaining the fire in their belly that set them on their path to the frontline years before most of their contemporaries. Stellar stuff."

Two tales of terror from the master of horror W W Jacobs.
THE GHOST OF JERRY BUNDLER
As guests at a small country inn pass the evening telling ghost stories, they discover that the very inn they are staying in, has its own resident ghost, Jerry Bundler, who is known for strangling his victims while they sleep. Two of the guests proclaim they don’t believe in ghosts.
One of the other guests, an actor, decides to put them to the test by betting that he can scare them before the night is up.
THE MONKEY'S PAW
Mr. and Mrs. White are visited by a friend of Mr White’s, who served with the British Army in India.
He shows them a mummified monkey’s paw and tells them that an old fakir placed a spell on it, so that it would grant three separate men three wishes but with hellish consequences for tampering with fate.
