El Nordico Fuego lost his Crown of Lucha Chaos tonight. I blame two things. Firstly, the colossal hangover from seeing Outcryfire and Evil Scarecrow the night before, after which I left all my valuable personal possessions on the tube. Secondly, the brute power of Maduk Malik – the thus-far und...

If you drink enough and fight enough, sooner or later this happens... Over the next couple of weeks, I'll be out and about across the UK with the biggest tequila company in the world. Giving out tequila...obviously Luchadore? Luchamore!...

Less than 24 afters after my tag debut at Lucha Britannia, I was back again - for my solo debut! Hurled into the madness of the eight-man Lucha chaos match, it was the perfect way to get experience of the show without the pressure of planning and performing a single or tag match. Instead, I we...

This Friday was my debut at Lucha Britannia. As far as I'm concerned, London School of Lucha Libre is the greatest wrestling school in Europe and Lucha Britannia is the greatest regular wrestling show (even though it's technically a caberet night) in Europe, too. Having been a student of LSL...

After three years of design and a year of writing, Daz and I finally decided to share our project with the outside world. To do so, we decided to exhibit it at Nottingham Comic Con! On Friday night, with a car packed with piles of prints, two lovingly printed books and skate decks aplenty...

This evening, Gay Bum played at Play All The Things at the Lucky Pig cocktail bar. I appreciate that there is nothing massively interesting about that in itself, especially seeing as we only played three songs. What is fairly interesting, however, is that for the first time since about 2009 we wr...

Photos from Tough Guy Nettle Warrior 2014 have been popping all over the place over the last fortnight. They first starting appearing on Yahoo News, in which I appeared as part of their Pictures of the Week - alongside a view of the Earth from space: After that, various other pictures ...

This weekend, the Guild gathered in Perton near Wolverhampton for the madness of Tough Guy Nettle Warrior 2014. We arrived on Saturday and spent the day marshaling: taking charge of an obstacle and ensuring that everybody made it over safely and knew where they were going afterwards. I found myse...

For some reason (possibly because I am a huge fan of theirs) I agreed to take part in the Genesis MMA Gym's December Fitness Challenge. What ensued was three hours of total madness. We started with a run through High Wycombe. Don't ask me how far we ran because I honestly have no idea. It t...

For Halloween, I journeyed back down to London (by MEGATRAIN) to play at the Bar Solo Halloween Freakshow! On a whim, we decided to write and play a new song in honour of Halloween. So we did...and we actually played it. It is called Brains and is a tribute to zombies... ...it is also the fi...

This week, we had the honour of being specially invited to play at the opening of the Behind the Boosh photogrpahy exhibition in the Camden Proud Gallery. The exhibition features the best behind-the-scenes photos taken by Dave Brown (Bollo) during his decade of working on the Mighty Boosh. ...

Yet again, I have had the moonlight beaten out of me in High Wycombe. This time, however, it was in a tag match...and I won! Or rather, Eddie Dennis won and I had the fortune of being on his team. Even so, it totally counts as a victory and is my first win at EWA this year! In this gallery...

Alas, there is always a downside to fleeing the lands in search of adventure. Last night, at EWA Pro Challenge Wrestling, I lost my British Championship title to Crazy Jonny Jones, after I landed head first on his knees...twice in a row. The first time was from the top rope, when I mistimed a Doo...

Friends, enemies and animals with all the qualifications for personhood, who are nevertheless spurned by those who confused the concepts of human and person. LEND ME YOUR EARS! Murorga Sim Bowa (that's me, would you believe?) has been challenged to defend his EWA British Championship against t...
