The Streets, in their final year as a band, will headline the Relentless Energy Drink Freeze Festival 2011. This performance is likely to be the last London festival the band will ever play.

The Streets, lead by Mike Skinner, brought a new style of music to the UK, in 2002, with their debut album Original Pirate Material. Tracks like “Lets Push Things Forward and “Don’t Mug Yourself” established the band in the UK music scene. Subsequent albums A Grand Don’t Come For Free, The Hardest Way To Make An Easy Living and Everything is Borrowed have made the group a household name in the UK. Singles such as “Fit But You Know It” and “Don’t Mug Yourself” can still be heard on the radio and in bars and clubs across the country.

The Streets have now released their last album Computers And Blues and from the outset it’s clear that Skinner intends to go out with a bang. The album crams everything Skinner has learnt in the course of his very personal five album odyssey into a package as irresistibly box-fresh as his game-changing 2002 debut Original Pirate Material.

British Olympic Snowboarding funding dropped
The morons at UK Sport who control the budgets for funding athletes for the Olympic games, have cut all spending for snowboarders and skiers in the run up to the 2014 games, despite receiving almost double the budget. Instead it will be wasted on pointless non-participation tray and blade sports -17Dec10
