Oxjam 2007

Calling all college-based musicians. Are you doing anything this October? No? Well, why not to try to arrange an Oxjam event?

Oxjam is Oxfam's most ambitious music event ever. They are asking musicians, promoters - in fact, everyone - to get together this October to make music, raise money and help end poverty.

From classical to club night, folk, funk and punk - it all adds up to one huge, UK-wide, Oxjam festival - raising hundreds of thousands of pounds to fight poverty. Whether you sing, scratch, or strum, you'll be joining some of the biggest names in music in the Oxjam line-up.

Given that the nearest event (to date) is an evening of space rock (yeah, another Hawkwind tribute band, all better than the original) in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, I'm hoping that Paisley can do a wee bit better!
