COCKFEST WELCOMES RADIO RIOTS


Welcoming “Radio Riots”!

Hello all, yes another band announcement! We welcome another local band to our festival, and what a band they sound. Radio Riots are a four piece indie cover band who also have some of their own material. Although the lads (Joel Allport, Ollie Bond, Harry George and Ewan Griffiths) are all 17 years young outfit they still have three years under their belt as Radio Riots, Cockfest 3 will be the month of their 3 year celebration – how fitting. They are definitely growing in popularity throughout our lands, from Shrewsbury, to Telford to as far as Leeds and the Welsh Coast with their up and coming gig at Shrewsbury Quarry Fest and Wem Carnival (both in the same day!) be sure to go check them out.

They cover many bands from modern to some rock classics, such as The Killers, Artic Monkeys, Kasabian ,The Clash & The buzzcocks. We are definitely looking forward to Radio Riots making their Cockfest debut and wowing the crowds, but until then be sure to join them on facebook, check out their blogspot and listen to some of their material – all the links and info can be found on our band page.

Bring it on!!!!

Vancouver Rioters and Facebook Vigilantes

The June 15 Stanley Cup hockey rampage has been called “the most documented riot in history,” and accurately so. Many who took part in it have felt not just the wrath of police and public officials, but also that of “Facebook vigilantes” who have posted incriminating photos, along with names and home addresses.

More than 200 arrests have been made following the riots, and scores of rioters, many identified online, have turned themselves in. The day after, a few preternaturally stupid rioters boasted online about their looting and destructive “exploits” on their Facebook pages. They were met with a firestorm of anger and threats of physical violence (and were “unfriended,” of course).
