Simple ingredients are used to create a wholly unique electronic landscape marked with euphoric melodies, harsh textures, complex arrangements and huge distorted beats. Friel has been touring and recording under his own name and with his band Parts & Labor almost non-stop since 2001. His work with both has garnered rave reviews from The New York Times, Rolling Stone, Wire, and Pitchfork. Friel also co-runs the Parts & Labor-operated independent label Cardboard Records, which has released trailblazing American experimentalists such as Gowns, Pterodactyl, and Ecstatic Sunshine, as well as the acclaimed 57 band "Love and Circuits" compilation (w/ High Places, Fuck Buttons, Japanther, Lucky Dragons, Oneida, Matt & Kim, etc). Friel's most recent solo recording, ?Ghost Town?, was released by Important Records in May of 2008."

It's time to get back to the Deansgate Slug & Lettuce folks! If you still haven't joined our meetings, we are a relatively new group, and at each meeting so far, we've usually had about 50% new faces, so please don't be shy about coming along. We're just waiting to meet you! Most people arrive alone, but please feel free to bring a friend along if you prefer. It's always a very relaxed gathering, with a good exchange of lively conversation and travellers' tales. We're all simply there to make new friends without any pressures, so everyone is very welcoming, and you'll be chatting away in minutes. The evening starts at 6, but the wine usually flows until late, so please don't worry if you can't arrive for 6 - we'll be there all night! In the Slug & Lettuce, we'll be the party on the far right as you walk through the main doors from Deansgate - they usually mark-off the section as private for us. I'm still away, and not yet sure when I'll be back, so Alberto has very kindly offered to co-host this meeting in case I'm not back in time. I really hope I can be there to join you, as I'm sure it'll be another great evening! In the meantime, I hope you all join me in saying a really BIG THANK YOU to Alberto for helping to make sure we have another meeting soon. (And if I'm not there, a hope a couple of the regulars will offer to buy him a drink!)
Hi all, Hope you've all had a good Christmas & New Year! Yes, I know it's been a little while but here's our next book club meetup. Because the vote was tied last time- this time our book will be The Somnambulist by Jonathan Barnes. Usual pub- the Bank. Hopefully they will reserve our table properly this time! See a few of you there :-) El x
Following a breathtaking performance for the Manchester Chamber Concerts Series last March, the highly acclaimed Michelangelo Quartet returns with three classics of the quartet repertoire. Opening with one of Mozart?s ?Haydn? quartets, a particularly strong and determined work, they then tackle Shostakovich?s gem, which contains the sort of melodic writing that sets the listener thinking of divine inspiration. Currently in the process of recording the complete Beethoven quartets for Pan Classics, the Quartet end with the composer?s seventh quartet, a turning point which initiated a decisive break from accepted compositional rules.

Don't miss walking the trails in the Coolidge Reservation. It is home to seaweed draped rocks and tide pools alive with all sorts of fascinating little creatures. Don't miss the path thru the woods to Clarke Pond with its creek that connects it to the Atlantic Ocean.
Downtown is filled with great restaurants and wonderful little shops for browsing. Manchester is a mostly upscale residential community but does have some public beach access including beautiful Singing Beach which includes views of Baker's Island and Little Misery Island.
DID YOU KNOW: that Singing Beach really does sing? If you pull your hands thru the sand or shuffle your feet over it, it makes a squeaking sound kind of like a high pitched violin! Come and try it!
