It's Competition Time!!!!
This week's Swag Bag contains albums from French Kicks, The Kooks & Radio 4, plus an Astralwerks CD Sampler with all manner of great stuff on it (Hot Chip, VHS or Beta, Juan Maclean etc.)
You can own all those lovely CDs by answering the following question:
Steve Aoki is spinning at Hiro Ballroom this week - What did he win at the Paper Magazine Nightlife Awards in 2006?.
email your answer to gbh@gbh.tv and we will select the winner from among the entries.
The answer to last week's question "What two bands was Dave Navarro in? " was (among numerous others) Janes Addiction & Red Hot Chili Peppers. In fact we had no idea how many bands Dave Navarro had been in altogether - but there were a lot, most of which we had never heard of.

BBC Documentary on The Downside of Globalization
"The New Rulers Of The World" by John Pilger
You haven't heard of him here, because the media doesn't seem to want to touch anything that criticizes big business - but John Pilger is very well in the UK, where he writes for some of the major dailies and releases disturbing documentaries such as this one which help us appreciate what those anti-globalization protesters are going on about.
Watch John Pilger's documentary here

Franz Ferdinand 'The Outsiders'
This song came out a while back - but we've just tracked down the video. It's our fave FF song to date - and it gets the video it deserves (did we tell you Franz Ferdinand came down to our Loaded party last Friday? It was wierd - they should be hanging out at the Playboy Mansion with famous people or something).

Make Dancing Legal
Our friends at the Drug Policy Alliance (no they aren't just a bunch of stoners, they are actually a very responsible bunch who are always fighting for civil rights and all that stuff) want to get rid of the cabaret law that makes it illegal to dance in NYC clubs and lounges without a cabaret license. You can help by joining in their 24-hour dance marathon Feb 9-10. Information here |

Fedde Le Grand 'Put Your Hands Up For Detroit'
This song is just so huge right now. We don't know why we love it like we do - probably because it is just so simple and unassuming - and yet so infectious and nasty (full disclosure, we've never been to Detroit and have no strong feelings on the city either way).

Is The Federal Reserve the Biggest Scam in History?
Ever wondered where your tax money goes? How about a group of European bankers who own the federal reserve? According to this movie (made by the producer of 'Trading Places' and 'The Rose'), this is exactly what's happening. And strangely enough, he can back it up with evidence.
Watch here
If you don't have time to watch the video - you might at least be interested in the fact that the dollar no longer seems to represent any kind of financial value. Click here to see the difference between the old dollar and the new dollar (an enlargement of the picture on the left). The old dollar was linked to Silver, and entitled the bearer to $1 in silver on demand. The new dollar is linked to... well, nothing apparently - so does that mean it is totally worthless? |

There's Something In The Water
The Anti-Fluoridation camp is dismissed by those who believe them to simply be scaremongers, preying on our gullibility. However, we just found out that 7000 employees of the EPA put their names to a document expressing concerns about water Fluoridation - see it here.
Also,
there are people out there pointing out a dark side to the history of water-Fluoridation. Here is an interview with Award Winning BBC Journalist, Christopher Bryson - watch

This was filmed a couple of years ago at the National Press Club - but we just found it recently. Fascinating stuff. We would love to hear what the skeptics have to say about it. |
