March Violets on Sky TV?

Quiff Boy — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 08:47:03 +0000

Sky subscribers have access to a bit of kit called the Sky Player which allows you to download and watch certain films, tv programmes, etc on your PC.

They rotate the content every week or so and, as of last Saturday, one of the films available to watch was the John Hughes film Some Kind Of Wonderful.

Amusingly, the main still from the film used on the Sky Player site is from the scene where The March Violets play live in a nightclub.

Here’s a screengrab:

If you hurry, you can still see it on the site here.

Added gig details to March Violets homepage

Quiff Boy — Fri, 02 Nov 2007 08:48:22 +0000

Added details of the reunion gig (and details of the official 2007 t-shirt) to the homepage: http://www.marchviolets.co.uk/

It was already on the news page but this way it will get the gig details on google quicker (my site is the top result when you search for most phrases involving ‘March’ and ‘Violets’!)

And of course:

Makes me wonder if I might not move the news posts into the site’s homepage, in a pseudo-blog style…. watch this space. Or rather that space.

Quiff Boy — Thu, 04 Oct 2007 11:45:54 +0000

I’ve been uploading all the videos from the Ghost Dance website to youtube, and while I was trawling through the archive I found a copy of The March Violets doing Turn To The Sky on BBC’s Saturday Superstore!!

So I’ve uploaded that too…

All of which can be found here:

March Violets forum

I thought it was probably worth mentioning that the forum on the March Violets site has been offline for some time, and will probably remain so indefinitely.

To be honest, very few people actually used the forum area, and the overhead of deleting spam and blocking bot accounts was too great to justify me leaving it open.

Anyone desperately wanting to chat about the March Violets is more than welcome to do so over on Heartland
