The first in a series of photos sent in by those who won The Beat Is The Law – Fanfare For the Common People posters signed by Pulp.
We asked the lucky few to photo the signed poster hung up in their pride of place.
This is what Helen M. from The Lake District, UK had to say about her photo:
“Fantastic film, enjoyed it more than anything else I’ve seen in ages. Feel very lucky to have won a film poster as well (very nice it is too!). Since you asked for pictures of the posters in pride of place, I thought I’d send you this. It’s not quite pride of place yet: I was preparing to hang my poster up on the wall, put it down for a second and left the room. As if they knew it was important, my two whippets Bell and Charlie rushed in to guard the poster and insisted on sleeping like that for most of the afternoon… I always knew they had good taste! Charlie always gets very happy when I play Longpigs or Pulp, so he’s clearly a fan!”
Thanks Helen.

To celebrate this glorious occasion, there will a launch event held at The Leadmill, Sheffield on 29th April featuring:
RuthJoy (Krush)
Winston Hazel (Jive Turkey/Forgemasters)
two Sheffield artists who played an influential role in the birth of the UK House movement, playing House Arresting tracks that shaped their own sound and in turn playing tracks by current UK artists influenced by the Fonetic beats mastered all those years ago that continue to resonate to this day.
Ralph Razor (Razor Stilleto/Space Cabaret) will also be in the mix playing more essential 80′s tunes.
Sensoria folk will also be joining us to celebrate the closing night of what will no doubt be yet another successful festival
