Paul Weller To Play Benefit Gig For Japan!

On April 3 Weller will join Beady Eye, Graham Coxon, Primal Scream, Richard Ashcroft and The Coral to play a special show at Brixton Academy in aid of the British Red Cross Japan Tsunami Appeal.

The show is being held to raise money for Japan following the devastating earthquake and tsunami on March 11.

Almost 8,500 people have died in the disaster with thousands injured and with nearly 13,000 people still missing the need for an immediate response is immense.

The Japanese Red Cross has been working on the ground since the disaster struck, mobilizing 85 teams - made up of 700 doctors, nurses and support staff who have provided first aid, healthcare and assistance in assessing the damage and the needs of the communities affected.

Tickets for the show go on sale this Friday (March 25) at 9am, limited to a maximum of 4 per applicant.

Tickets will be available from http://www.gigsandtours.com, http://www.ticketweb.co.uk and http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk or via the 24hr hotline on 0844 811 0051.

Paul Weller Interviewed During Maida Vale Appearance For BBC Radio 4!

Fresh back from a short tour of the US and Japan, Paul Weller talks about the 30th anniversary of The Jam's sixth and final studio album, The Gift, and where he's at right now. Repost From The Huffington Post By: Jason Holmes Paul Weller bounds into his chair, an electronic cigarette gripped in his hand. We're in the BBC's Studio Three in Maida Vale. Visibly calm owing to post-tour exhaustion and a morning trip to the gym, Weller is here to be interviewed by John Wilson for BBC Radio 4's Mastertapes series. "Back in those days, bands put out an album a year, you toured with it for a year, then you went back in the studio and repeated the process. Looking back, I was glad I experienced that pressure.

Paul Weller's New Fashion Line! "Real Stars Are Rare"

Info via: RealStarsAreRare.com REAL STARS ARE RARE is a new menswear label from Paul Weller.  The collection has been designed by Paul in a collaboration with Phil Bickley , owner of Tonic, a menswear store in West London. The Autumn/ Winter 2014 launch collection includes tailoring, knitwear, shirting and accessories. There’s no ‘considered demographic’. REAL STARS ARE RARE is for men of all ages.

Our tight, considered colour palette features purple, indigo, plum and bright blues alongside rich, chocolate tones and cool greys. REAL STARS ARE RARE has been in the planning, you could say, for forty years. Ever since a kid from Woking fi...
