News reaches Dewsbury from http://www.progrock.co.uk.

SEAN FILKINS - War And Peace & Other Short Stories - GBP 9.99 (released 11/04/2011)

http://www.progrock.co.uk/acatalog/F.html#aP15958

Recorded at Lee Abraham's Dockside Studio, the debut solo CD from Sean Filkins (ex Big Big Train) has a great production, with drums recorded and engineered by Karl Groom at Thin Ice Studios, where the CD was also mastered. The 6 powerful and melodic tracks include a number of guest musicians including Gary Chandler (Jadis), Dave Meros (Spock's Beard), John Mitchell (It Bites, Frost, and others!), Lee Abraham, and more. This release is highly recommended! Hear the track 'The English Eccentric' from the new CD at http://www.f2music.co.uk

I played "The English Eccentric" on my show on Saturday (the same track is on the latest Prognosis cover CD). Sean himself has been in the EIMA live chat the past two weeks and a few chatters ordered his CD on the spot. He hung around for Mary's show and she played another track from it, as Catherine mentioned. I have some Sean-era BBT lined up for this week and more solo Sean the show after that.

Splendid history of Arena (10 years worth)
Found my hard copy whilst sorting out a cupboard.

Indeed.
I wonder, was that video a recording of the result of a live "director" who didn't know the music? All of the cuts seem to be to where something had just happened, thus missing it. For example, where Martin Orford was singing BV just a moment ago or where JM had just hit a big chord a moment ago. This can't have been a cut with all the separate camera sources available...can it?
