Instigate debate taking the House Concert one step further.

This is a wonderfull Idea www.instigatedebate.com, Instigate Debate - Get involved and get a free gig - at your place.


Instigate Debate is an experiment. An avenue for exchange between the public and public figures, without the hindrance - or safety net - of media spin.

It's simple. If you have a mobile phone, it most likely has a camera.

Whoever you are, wherever you are, if you spot a public figure, any of the wonderful people who regularly appear in our fantastic magazines, newspapers or even on our tellies, try not to gush, or faint. Instead, ask them a question, and film the response. There is a list of suggested questions on www.instigatedebate.com. What do you want to know? How can we find out?

Instigate Debate make a promise to everyone who submits a video - a group of some of the UK's best musicians - Jon McClure, Tom Clarke (The Enemy), Carl Barat (Dirty Pretty Things), Drew McConnell (Babyshambles) and other friends - will play a set in your living room, what the hell, your garden, for you and your friends. They will do as many of these gigs as humanly possible. No matter where you are in the UK, they will come to you.

Submit your video at www.instigatedebate.com, include your contact details, and we'll get in touch asap to book a time for the gig. They want to get this - and the debate - moving NOW.
