Wolverhampton Men Arrested In Aberdeen Drugs Operation
Police in Grampian Scotland report that their Drug Squad has been involved in an operation against Crack Cocaine dealers from the West Midlands in England.
The Aberdeen Press & Journal reports that "Five people appeared at Aberdeen Sheriff Court yesterday, accused of being concerned in the supply of Class A drugs.
Justin Bennett, 31, Jamie Hill, 28, and Shane Lane, 25, all of Wolverhampton, and Colin Middleton, 30, of 399 Hilton Drive, and Colin McGettigan, 42, of 81 Ash-hill Drive, both Aberdeen, appeared from custody.
The Wolverhampton three were remanded in custody and the Aberdeen men released on bail."
A further two 25 year old men were arrested in Wolverhampton last weekend in connection with the operation that led to the recovery of crack cocaine and heroin with a street value of £70,000.

I've also discovered hiddenplanetradio a station that claims "to bring you the widest variety of unsigned rock bands and artists ever".
Sounds like good stuff to me but then who am I to judge? It does seem to me that unsigned bands deserve somewhere to showcase their talents to wide audiences. Major record companies have been able to pick and choose and manufacture bands to suit their own purposes and use their vast financial clout to market the product.
Independent web based stations like HiddenPlanet should help bring originality back into the pop music scene and help good unsigned bands get the attention they deserve.
Keep the volume up guys.
