THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR...who were they?

THE KNIGHTS TEMPLAR...who were they?

A thousand years give or take a few after their creation, the Knights Templar still capture the public imagination, why? what is it about their myth that is so enduring, what is real and what is just pure fantasy? From Indiana Jones, to Dan brown novels to dodgy power metal albums their famous imagery, sigil and deeds still loom large over our history. Sex, Murder, Money and Intrigue! So in this episode I continue the historical thread I've been on and look at who they were, where they came from and what is fact and what is fiction from this fascinating period of history!!!

TOUR DIARY PT. 2

TOUR DIARY PT. 2

This podcast is part 2 of the tour diary, you wanted sex, drugs and rock n roll and you are gonna get parking congestion, Brexit confusion, industrial wastelands, wet leather, the continuing saga of the missing merch and who took all the Vitamin C. How habits have changed, are people not buying tickets any more in order to be able to pull out of being social at the last moment? and all sorts of other problems coming down the road for the music industry that were perhaps unforseen during the pandemic.....oh and Elon who?

Game changers in the music industry

Game changers in the music industry

In E 105 AA continues the recent threads about the Music Industry, as Primordial embarks on another tour, AA considers how the industry has changed over the decades, what did managers do back in the day, the demands put on musicians now to have a multitude of skills, how the punk rock, hardcore, Nwobhm Do It yourself ideal changed the music world back in the day and how the ideal of remote living and working changes the fundamental principle of being in a band itself.......support the showwww.patreon.com/AlanAverillSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast.

Can touring survive?

Can touring survive?

In E 104 AA asks can touring survive? inspired by listening to the audio book of Henry Rollins 'Get in the van' for the first time, AA looks at the logistics of touring, how new costs are being absorbed by musicians and the crowd, what is because of the war? what is simply price gouging, what is price gouging? how does a tour get started, get booked and become structured. How will that change as we move ahead, what's the main difference between van touring and night-liner touring? some simply life hacks for both and will live music simply become a social luxury in the future? to support the show go tohttp://www.patreon.com/AlanAverillIG nemtheanga_primordialSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast.

Episode 103 is a chat with Mikko from SWALLOW THE SUN. Primordial are on tour with them and Rome in under two weeks so it seemed like a good idea to get together for a conversation. Mikko is Finnish, so as laconic, low energy, glass half empty and bleak as you can imagine!
