Christmas can be a magical time, but for some it is just another day and our shmuFM volunteers wanted to change that with their Christmas for all Appeal. They collected items such as tinned food, pasta, rice, pet food, baby food and nappies, as well as cosy items like hats, scarves and gloves.

Without an avalanche of Tumblr accounts offering endless information on what your favourite band is wearing, Soundcloud recommendations about who to listen to next, or Twitter documenting your most-loved guitar player’s childhood fear, publications such as the pioneering DIY zine Sniffin’ Glue and groupie-focused Star found their way into the eager hands of music fans […]
