Analysing the Cradle situation and what is the job of a session musician

In today's episode I discuss the crazy Cradle of Filth situation the whole metal scene is rubber necking over, what actually is the role of a session musician in the music industry and when do you go from session role to member, is it when you start song writing or is it longevity? and is it right to do everything so publicly? support the show over at :https://patreon.com/AlanAverillif you want to check out the band in the add read go to :Zappedüster:https://zappeduster.bandcamp.com/Sägisse Rock circle:https://www.instagram.com/saegisse_rock/Aesthetisk Art:https://www.instagram.com/aesthetisk_art/Kveleyst:https://kvelgeyst.bandcamp.com/album/blut-milch-und-thr-nenUngfell:https://ungfell.bandcamp.com/Primordial on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6WHaejNA63uhZZZZek?si=yFFV8ypSSDOESUX62_0TzQsponsored by Metal Blade recordshttps://metalblade.indiemerch.com/promo code AA 2024 for 10% off your orderships worldwideFor info on my work as a booking agent go to:https://www.facebook.com/DragonProductionsOfficialor email alan@dragon-productions.comPrimordial cds/lps available fromhttps://www.metalblade.com/primordial/death metalVERMINOUS SERPENThttps://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl9JD0Zn4rhpBvrN2Oa?si=zOjIulHXS5y9lW1YHMhgTAdoomDREAD SOVEREIGN https://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4pl0nbOrZA6u2QnqDN?si=sxQ5_1htR6G3WIvy1I_wXAgothAPRILMENhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/7GzLO1YJClmN5TvV4A37MJ?si=cRXSk24lQKWSqJG-B8KbWQSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast.

This is a paid for advertisement for the bandZappedüsterand the track "Näbelschlucker"ZAPPEDÜSTER „NÄBELSCHLUCKER“: Rural Black Metal Punk from the backwoods middle of nowhere...„In the dead of night resounds a ghastly screech in Agasul, drifting across the countryside – the curse of the Schrädel. The Hungersinet drives his woeful doings, the moaning of the Näbelschlucker awakens and gasps for Sargnägel, Pfiiffe, Chlöpfer und Bränz.“Out of the stale swill of Sägisse Rock, ZAPPEDÜSTER gathered together, wielding hatchet and rusty chains to stir up the spectres in the local pubs with their antiqated patoit Black Metal.Zappedüster:https://zappeduster.bandcamp.com/ Sägisse Rock circle:https://www.instagram.com/saegisse_rock/ Aesthetisk Art:https://www.instagram.com/aesthetisk_art/ Kveleyst:https://kvelgeyst.bandcamp.com/album/blut-milch-und-thr-nen Ungfell:https://ungfell.bandcamp.com/ Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast.

The oasis of witty banter vs. free speech hypocrisy

The oasis of witty banter vs. free speech hypocrisy

Mixed bag today. While not giving a F about it at the time, the 90s really where a time of optimism, anti censorship and not confined by the restraints of the culture wars and the re-union of Oasis has brought that into sharp focus. Contrast that with today's climate, I discuss a recent glaring example in Ireland of the hypocrisy of many modern musicians over free speech, is misunderstanding what it means a deliberate ploy or just casual censorship.....? along with an add read for support the show over at :https://patreon.com/AlanAverillif you want to check out the band in the add read go to :Zappedüster:https://zappeduster.bandcamp.com/Sägisse Rock circle:https://www.instagram.com/saegisse_rock/Aesthetisk Art:https://www.instagram.com/aesthetisk_art/Kveleyst:https://kvelgeyst.bandcamp.com/album/blut-milch-und-thr-nenUngfell:https://ungfell.bandcamp.com/Primordial on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6WHaejNA63uhZZZZek?si=yFFV8ypSSDOESUX62_0TzQsponsored by Metal Blade recordshttps://metalblade.indiemerch.com/promo code AA 2024 for 10% off your orderships worldwideFor info on my work as a booking agent go to:https://www.facebook.com/DragonProductionsOfficialor email alan@dragon-productions.comPrimordial cds/lps available fromhttps://www.metalblade.com/primordial/death metalVERMINOUS SERPENThttps://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl9JD0Zn4rhpBvrN2Oa?si=zOjIulHXS5y9lW1YHMhgTAdoomDREAD SOVEREIGN https://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4pl0nbOrZA6u2QnqDN?si=sxQ5_1htR6G3WIvy1I_wXAgothAPRILMENhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/7GzLO1YJClmN5TvV4A37MJ?si=cRXSk24lQKWSqJG-B8KbWQSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast.

Is it really possible to ban phones at gigs?

Is it really possible to ban phones at gigs?

Ghost banned phones for their most recent tour, in this episode I debate whether this is practical or possible for smaller bands or only a 'privilege' for bands right at the top? playing in huge venues who have the facility, is it possible in a smaller venue and do newer smaller bands even want it....as maybe they need the free promo....why do we feel the need to document every moment of our lives without living in the moment? I get into the whys and wherefores on this one and why doesn't Tobias return my texts anymore? this and loads of other random nonsense.....support the show over at :https://patreon.com/AlanAverillPrimordial on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6WHaejNA63uhZZZZek?si=yFFV8ypSSDOESUX62_0TzQsponsored by Metal Blade recordshttps://metalblade.indiemerch.com/promo code AA 2024 for 10% off your orderships worldwideFor info on my work as a booking agent go to:https://www.facebook.com/DragonProductionsOfficialor email alan@dragon-productions.comPrimordial cds/lps available fromhttps://www.metalblade.com/primordial/death metalVERMINOUS SERPENThttps://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl9JD0Zn4rhpBvrN2Oa?si=zOjIulHXS5y9lW1YHMhgTAdoomDREAD SOVEREIGN https://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4pl0nbOrZA6u2QnqDN?si=sxQ5_1htR6G3WIvy1I_wXAgothAPRILMENhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/7GzLO1YJClmN5TvV4A37MJ?si=cRXSk24lQKWSqJG-B8KbWQSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast.

Die with your boots on......

Die with your boots on......

Our icons age and eventually die, reminding us of our own mortality. They wrote songs that defined our youth and now are in the final chapters of life.....do we let them age? do we always want them to stay the same, some did....and died young and remained verile, beautiful and iconic....and some don't!

The Irish woman who shot Mussolini

In 1926 an Irish woman, Violet Gibson, shot Mussolini from almost point blank range in the face, almost changing the face of history.....almost. An obscure character in Irish and world history, where did she come from, her beliefs, how did she get so close to 'El Duce' and why did she disappear from history until recently.
