Frank Sidebottom
Comedian, musician and fellow Bizarre Ball performer Frank Sidebottom, aka Chris Sievey, has died after collapsing at his home in Hale, Manchester. In May, he revealed that he was fighting cancer, but told the Manchester Evening News: “It’s bobbins. I’ve had worse.”
His World Cup single “Three Shirts on my Line” was released for download a week ago and all profits will go to Cancer Research. RIP Frank. You will be missed.

SOPHIE
The S.O.P.H.I.E (Stamp Out Prejudice, Hatred and Intolerance Everywhere) Foundation was set up in 2009 after 20 year old goth, Sophie Lancaster, was kicked to death by strangers because of her hair, make-up and what she was wearing. The charity provides educational measures to combat prejudice and discrimination towards those from alternative subcultures. At Saturday’s Bizarre Ball, the Illamasqua Lounge helped raise money for SOPHIE. Here’s the video (I’m at around 2:40ish, pouting at the camera and looking drunk!):
