Looks like we've taken on an unexpected passanger. Say hello to the interstellar being known on Zeus. He will be guiding those of you around the planet of Bill Bragg. Please listen carefully as it is Between the Wars! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjUA3RU4B8E

We are heading into the darkest of the explored regions - The Deep Purple. For all our safety we will be switching to the monotone drive as we go though the Dark Night sector. A big thanks to Tezac for supplying the equipment. Here goes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pkg0xJj2A4w

Seems we have a slight emergancy and will be diverting to Melissa Auf Der Maur as one of our more exotic flora the Demon Buttercup needs to replenish her water supply by Following The Waves. Hope you all enjoy this unscheduled break: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYIn7rJ5FlA&feature=related

*RED ALERT, RED ALERT* We have been bordered by that most dashing of space pirates and his horde of insects- Adam and the Ants. He is ordering us to Stand and Deliever. Do not worry, our head of security, the indefeatable noflynn and Igor will deal with him! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPgHbt0ODr4
