Cozy Powell? That’s miles away

Ages ago we asked you to contribute to a Google Map. A Brum music map, of not just musicians or venues or bands, but mangers, personalities, shops, companies, collectives and hang-outs. That map is still open for contributions, but you can now buy an A1 poster of memories:

Birmingham Music Map

It contains over 200 records, placed on the map by contributors. Zoom in, or see a detail:

It’s available to buy on my Zazzle store, with my other map-based artworks. And it’s Christmas soon.

Thanks to the Birmingham Music Archive.

Telly Savalas Looks At Birmingham Bearwood Ted Sings The Bull Ring Thing
  1. Birmingham: It's Not Shit loves Birmingham, its people, arts, animals, buildings, parks, grass verges, factories and bus stops. We've even got a soft spot for the Black Country.

    B:iNS runs The Brummie of the Year Award, Talk Like a Brummie Day and organises odd stuff like spending all day on the eleven bus.

    BiNS is mostly by Jon Bounds, a Birmingham based social web consultant, producer and writer. You can hire him to work on your stuff, or follow him on twitter. There's also stuff from Danny Smith and Karen Strunks.

    Feel free to send us anything you're interested in - or think we might be.
    If you've got gigs to promote, best to chuck them on the talk board.
