COCONUT SHY, FASHION WEEK AND SECRET CUPBOARD!



RIGHT! That's it! Time to blog...

Things are moving fast so keep up, I have to talk about everything from shows, to secret cupboard gigs to secret toilet gigs to fashion shows and the speedyadvancement of the great and mysterious RECORD CLUB!

But first, this...

Yesterday I returned home from a photo-shoot with American culture magazine "Blackbook" which took place at the fashion house Burberry's headquarters. I had been kindly invited along by the company to appear in Blackbook's music issue. So it was, that the morning of the shoot I appeared at the front doors of Burberry with the hairstyle of a coconut and the wit of a coconut also...early morning starts often get me confused about what's going on in general terms and yes, this morning was no exception...

I was invited in to wait for a nice lady to come and wheel me up to the seventh floor, where the make-up lady would go to work and emerge an hour later sweating profusely with one of those thousand yard stares often portrayed in war films and a presentable looking "Sam Beeton" by her side.
Then still bemused I was presented to a white wall, which then slid aside like a lift door. Inside was a team of stylists from New York. After this things get a little hazy. I seem to recall being hit on the head from behind with a club and the rest is a mystery to me, all I know is I wake up looking sharp, in front of the photographer. Now I'm sure you all know the routine by now- Shouts of  "work it" "Shake it" "more Intense" "grrr" all that stuff coupled with the occasional flash of the camera and you have a nice set of pictures...amazing stuff. Anyway, for all my American fans and Record Clubbers, the April Issue of Blackbook will be out in April as is tradition and will be available in shops, reputable or not in April. April. Shops, In April time.



A new tradition/phenomenon has been sparked by myself and UK record club members at my shows... (suspenseful music here) YES, IT'S THE SECRET CUPBOARD OR SIMILAR SMALL UTILITY SPACE GIG! And what a shattering heap of fun it is to harken back to the days of the black hole of Calcutta and pile everyone into a small space and see what happens! Mostly hearty laughter and songs from me happen, and that's great! So next show you get to, be sure bring your mining lamp and tolerance for small spaces and check it out! Videos of these little happenings are up on youtube so have yourself a looky see.

The Record Club continues to grow at an incredible rate, people are joining like crazy and we at the label would like to say...HABUNZA! and Thanks! So much good stuff coming up! If you haven't hopped aboard the Record Club yet I urge you to do so! So many perks to be had in being a part of our journey....We are only three months in and when you join you automatically receive the volumes you have missed! Go to it! www.sambeeton.com/Shop

On Monday I attended Burberry's show for the fashion week, It was a great honour to be stared at from across the catwalk by various celebrities and luminaries who were all obviously thinking 'OMG' "Is that Sam Beeton on the front row?" "I love that little guy" and "wow look at his amazing coconut style hair do" that sort of thing...although I was a little perturbed by the whole of DURAN DURAN all staring at once...This aside the show was a masterpiece of performance and style and another success in a sea of them from Christopher Bailey, who I'd like to thank for inviting me along to see it!

Well Folks, I'll see you soon!

Many thanx!

Sam aged 19
