If you are in touch with Sean Flowerdew, would you mind giving him a nudge to fulfill orders for LISF merchandise - stuff I ordered and paid for in December is still not received.
Alternatively if you could ask him to respond to one of the many emails I have already sent him.
I am sure he is busy organising bands and tickets etc, but taking money without supplying the goods is theft. And that sort of reputation cannot be good for ticket sales..... |

More than a week has passed since I sent Sean a couple of emails to the address he had suggested. I asked him to let me know that he had received the message and I asked him to confirm when he would fulfill the order. I have not had an email from him and I have not had my order.
Not sure what I am expected to think about all this.
Sean, if you are serious about sorting this out, you need to do it this week. Otherwise trading standards will be sorting it out. |

We are delighted to announce The London Intl Ska Festival have teamed up with the Specialized charity project and will be donating £10 from every 4 day Ska festival ticket sold in March 2013.

This year Specilized launch their second campaign ‘Beat Teenage Cancer’, which is based around the songs of UK’s fantastic ska/pop outfit The Beat. The project centers on a Beat tribute album featuring all the bands classics, a series of UK shows and closes with a 3 day extravaganza at Parkdean Sandford on November 8th-10th 2013. Artists already signed up include: Ed Rome, Bombskare, The Values ft. Neol Davies (The Selecter), The Talks, Dub Pistols, Dave Hillyard (The Slackers), Rob Johnson & The Irregulars, Rhoda Dakar & Phill Jupitus, Erin Bardwell Collective, Dubtonik ft. Charley Anderson (The Selecter), Buford O’Sulivan & many more.
All the money raised once again goes to Teenage Cancer Trust. For more information go to www.specializedproject.co.uk
