Vinyl re-release of 15 year old comedy-art-drone piece on Green Vinyl.
An owl wakes up at sea in a pea green boat. It is accompanied by a cat, its natural predator. There is some honey. What chain of events led to this dangerous situation?
This is a long awaited luxury vinyl repress of the legendary Pea Green Boat record. On Pea Green Vinyl! (note – it’s slightly darker than it looks in the photo)
It’s more or less identical to the 2007 release, except this time we have pressed the record on pea green vinyl, and in deference to the times, each disc comes with an mp3 download.
Also we’ve removed the references to myspace from the back of the sleeve.

I unreservedly recommend the following shows at London’s Leicester Square Theatre, some of which can be seen after me some nights, so why not double-dip it!
In recommending them, I do not seek to use my vast influence to damage the careers of other comedians who I am not recommending, or to seek to take business away from other venues, which are not the Leicester Square Theatre.
You know Tony – like a car crash in a paint factory.
Hans is one of the greatest stand-ups ever.
In the interests of full disclosure I am married to this woman, who is now sold out until the December dates.
I recommend also…
Featuring comic-monologuist-writer Ben Moor as the narrator the ATP-shaking psych-prog band perform their concept album on the arctic explorer Ernest Shackleton.
I had a new book out on August 4th, Content Provider, through Faber. “Over the last five years, often when David Mitchell has been on holiday, the comedian Stewart Lee has been attempting to understand modern Britain, and his own place in it, in a series of irregular newspaper columns.
Will Scotland become the Promised Land of the Left? Is it possible to live a life without crisps? Who was Grant Shapps? What does your Spotify playlist data say about you? Are Jeremy Corbyn and Stewart Lee really the new Christs? And so on. Selected, introduced and, where necessary, explained by the author and corrected by readers, Content Provider is funny, grumpy, provocative, confusing and brilliant.”

This clunky title, as well as being the same name as my next book, will be another full-on, finished, Carpet Remnant/41st Best/Milder Comedian type epic show, with an actual set, although the exact material is currently in freefall post-Brexit.
Until Nov the shows are work-in-progs and then I will tour it for about 18 months (everywhere in UK and EIRE, except Carlisle) into mid-2018, unless there is no demand for it or I get sick or bored. Here’s some dates.

On Wednesdays at 11pm on Resonance 104.4 fm and on the station website, the barely present cult Canadian stand-up comedian Baconface continues to play lengthy and mainly uninterrupted selections from his late brother’s extensive record collection of ’60s and ’70s psychedelia, progressive rock, free jazz, folk, acid folk, folk rock, acid rock, electronic music, and ethnoforgeries.
In association with the Chilliwack Office of Leisure. [Repeated Saturday 4am.] The shows can also be heard here.. http://www.baconfacecanada.com/global-globules/
Resonance is a groundbreaking 24/7 radio station which broadcasts on 104.4 FM to central London, DAB to Greater London, nationally on Radioplayer and live streamed to the rest of the world.
Comedian Robin Ince, the co-editor of the new comedians’ horror fiction anthology, in which I have a piece, writes…
“Hello everyone. Dead Funny Encore is out. i am really pleased with it, as is Johnny Mains. Sorry it took longer than thought, but really couldn’t be helped.
This is a link to book page – https://www.saltpublishing.com/products/dead-funny-encore-9781784630393
We did a horror event at Latitude that viciously plugged the book, http://cosmicgenome.com/features/podcasts/
Here is the book on that Amazon
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dead-Funny-Encore-Robin-Ince/dp/178463039X/
I have written the introduction for two reprints of travel books by the surrealist-occultish Ithell Colquhoun, out this month.
It was a pleasure.
