Julie is one of my favourite people I've ever met and worked with. Warm, smart, funny, cool and so so knowledgeable. I was at the Lostprophets gig at the falcon / barfly and the Bring Me gig with The Red Chord.
This was a phenomenal conversation. Really got in depth about the industry and talked about that elephant in the room with he who must not be named. So many people stray away from even talking about that situation, and she as always had the chops to explain and express it.
I remember first time I saw bring me was supporting bleeding through at newport tjs, i just remember they were bricking it because they were opening for practically a hometown Hondo maclean crowd(Hondo main support for BT) Hondo shared members with funeral for a friend who at that point were one of the biggest bands on the scene, so it was basically a hometown funeral for a friend crowd. But I give them all the credit because ollie realised the situation I heard him commenting before they played that people were there because of the connection to funeral so they were playing out their skins that night.
Is anyone else thinking Get back at it Julie! I live in North East and there are so many talented musicians looking for support and to be discovered! Some of the best gigs i have seen have been at local pubs where i can't understand why the bands aren't massive!
What she was saying about the managers was true as well in regard to "be part of a company", I saw martin hall (hall or nothing management and pr) do a seminar, he talked about how back in the 90s he had Oasis and the Manic street preachers two of the hottest bands in the country but he didn't start making real money until knebworth and both bands were no longer on the rise but the rock establishment. And the advice she gave for young bands, I remember talking to Julie years ago I was wearing a smashing pumpkins shirt and she said to me that the reason why Billy Corgan is so successful is because he understands the business side of the music business, he studies what the manager and the label does.
@trevorsheldrick3438 Yea I loved their album. Saw them afew times live, They had a great sound. I knew the guys from Kilkus and Miocene quite well.. Cant believe that Era was 20-25 years ago.

The Visible Noise, Thirty Days of Night, Calculated Risk, In At The Deep End Records days were brilliant.
Interesting chat she's a good person to have in your corner!

Miocene, Vacant Stare, Kilkus, Hybrid uk... who remembers that scene?
Still listen to Vacant Stare on a weekly basis. Superb band

Great times! Saw all those bands far too many times in London
Love gems like this, thanks for having her on, cool podcast and cool guest
genuinely gasped while scrolling
Interesting chat! Could've been 3 hours I reckon
Visible noise was lit my fav label back in the day
awesome episode, she's really funny too
Also great interview 👍
Think she meant "Beat Union" not "Go audio" who Luke played with.
Days of worth & Fireapple Red 🤘🏻
'98 is when Cacophonous started going south. Maybe Julie had more impact on them than is given credit for.
well jorden fish left the band
cough cough 'Filthy Soup' listen everywhere
I can’t believe Oli hasn’t bought her a house. Still living in an apartment, my gosh.
Something that is really strange is i always got Ian Watkins vibes from Ollie Sykes.........
Now i know why🤦♂️🤦♂️😂😂
What do you mean?
