London Calling TV Show 1999
What a find! Janus Stark performing “Victoria Falls”, an unreleased song, for the TV program London Calling. Filmed in London for the Japanese audience I believe! The line up of the band is interesting! Gizz on lead vocals and guitar, Shop has taken up a backing vocal position, Gav King is on bass guitar and Carl Alty on drums.
Shop had an injury at the Metallica & Marilyn Manson show at Milton Keynes on July 10th which left his right hand damaged and in plaster and metal pins for some time. This performance would have been sometime in Autumn 1999. Gav King putting in a great show!
The Club With No Name 31/12/99
This was a really intimate gig in front of 400 people absolutely squashed to death in a small back room of a pub “The Boys Head”, it was the 1999 NYE party of Chris Lovell’s “Club With No Name”.
These were very good times. An interesting period for Janus Stark, lots of unreleased tracks being played, lots of guest musicians including Gav King, Andy Hawkins and Matt Biffa!

RPM Oline Review
Check out this review of the two latest Janus Stark CD’s “Rewind To A” and “Chez Wrong” , it’s pretty damn thorough and the guy is really feeling it. The two CD’s are interesting because of the time scale and the stories they tell.
It’s proof that good inspiration can come from periods of optimism and pessimism! The first album recorded 1996-1997 , the second 2001-2002.
