Product Information

Due to the recent demise of live events post-COVID, the three event companies have joined forces and are now offering companies and private individuals the opportunity to stream live themed events and awards ceremonies straight into their front rooms and corporate offices. They say that challenges are what make life interesting, and overcoming them is what makes life meaningful. In the case of Gok Wan, a quote has never quite carried so much relevance. To add another branch to his ever-blossoming career tree during ‘normality’ is one thing, but to do so during a global pandemic, gives a real glimmer of insight into the psyche of a man who has swapped teaching people ‘ How To Look Good Naked’ for a musical education on ‘How To FEEL good, clothed.’ Written by Lukas Rafael Hespanhol Ruiz, Adam Kershen, Andrew Polychronopoulos, Cesar Souza, Elise LeGrow & Brian West I sometimes think about taking a walk in the morning, but then my muscles become stiff … I can’t get my body to go outside,” Michi, a 45-year-old Tokyo woman who lost her job during the pandemic, said in a recent report by the public broadcaster NHK.

A number of bus routes to the town have been axed by Arriva and town centre parking is restricted to just one hour. Tony and Pamela Moule shop in the town and would like to stop for a coffee but the time limit makes that impossible. Pamela, 76, said: ”The biggest problem is the parking.” Vocals by Dames Brown (Athena Johnson, Teresa Marbury & LaRae Starr) Published by No Gravity Music/EMI Music Publishing Ltd, Universal/MCA Music Limited & Jay Qui Music/EMI Music Publishing Ltd The Tokyo ward of Edogawa, home to an estimated 9,000 hikikomori, will start holding metaverse socialising events next month to give people the opportunity to meet via their avatars. Kyoto prefecture organises virtual meet-ups twice a month, with participants ranging from teenagers to people in their 40s.Exercise is important for not just physical, but mental health too. Keeping fit can bring people together but funding constraints and soaring bills have shut a wave of leisure centre and swimming pools. An estimated 85 public pools have closed since 2019. While an estimated 60% of the people counted in official statistics are men, more women are coming forward to describe their post-pandemic experience of isolation. Do you think DJing is a way of empowering people? In the same way you do with your Gok Wan fashion/cooking career? But now you’re musically enhancing people’s lives instead of visually? Following a sold out show in London, we are pleased to announce that Gok Wan MBE will be bringing ‘Isolation Nation’ to Digital Newcastle on Friday 28th Jan 2022,

Bustling shops, pubs, libraries and banks can all help knit together a thriving community and prevent loneliness by getting people out and about and talking to each other. The result is Isolation Nation presents 4 Corners of House, an epic celebration of the dance industry’s most enduring genre. After more than 50 years of unpredictable pop, 2021 may be the year of Ron and Russell Mael, otherwise known as Sparks. As well as being the subject of a new documentary, they have written the script and music for a new film, Annette, which opened this year’s Cannes film festival. They tell Daniel Dylan Wray about their “hostility to being boring” and why they’ll always love pop music. Sport Shoppers and traders say bank closures and crazy parking rules are turning the once-thriving Pontefract in West Yorkshire into a ghost town. Several banks have already deserted the town and next month the Barclays will go too. But even now the branch, which has been a bank since 1801, does not open on Wednesdays – market day.Gok rounded off a fast moving 2020 by releasing his ‘Isolation Nation’ compilation, curated and mixed by him, on world renowned house label Defected Records, pre-selling over 3000 copies.
