Lasts years official song for Shed Week is now an official Song for the guardians Down with the kids column, this is what Sid Life Crisis says
“just to let you know that ‘in me shed’ has been made official campaign song for a campaign to give under 18s the vote in the Guardian Family Section today. Chris Cleave’s reasoning appears to be that that way the kids can rule the country whilst we retire to our sheds and remove ourselves from the whole shebang.”
Last years Punk band of Shed Week 2009 have got a new viral video out.
MAN FLU!!! Important Government Public Information Film about Man Flu, presented by the Ministry for Dad’s Health and Punks Not Dad. For more info please go to www.punksnotdad.co.uk

Everyone’s favorite middle aged punk band Punks not dad with a shed leaning and of course the blokes who come up with the shed anthem & official song for shed week, that is “In Me Shed” may have hit the 14000000000000 (Fourteen thousand) views mark on youtube by the time you read this, if not then why not view the video in full not just the bit about Lisa Rogers.
You can also read an interview with the band which took place after their dadstock gig
The official song for Shed week “In me Shed” from the wonderful Punks not Dad (on twitter) has been let out of the shed and you can buy it from various online shops as a MP3 download, amazon and Apple’s Itunes
Here’s the Video but please buy the song as the dads say “it’ll be 79p you won’t regret!”
If you buy it then let me know and I will do the unofficial #shedweek chart here on the shedblog..
I went to the launch gig of the official band of shedweek “Punks not dad” new CD “We are the dads” last night in a pub in Cardiff for their Dadstock event, and they were brilliant, middle aged (as advertised) funny, shedlike and loud..(see I am getting old as well)
It was great to meet the boys and thanks to everyone who turned up especially sheddie & shed of the year finalist Thomo who drove all the way with the Mrs from Norfolk to be there..
Great to meet a sheddie with so much commitment and passion for what he does, by the end of the night he had converted most people into building rammed earth sheds!
The downside of the night for everyone except me and thomo was that we got to “sing” with the band the chorus of In Me Shed, I am very sorry about that..
anyway a great night, lots of beer and new friendships.. Bring on Shedweek, when my hangover has gone that is
Thommo’s mate Graham took these shots (and they even gave me a lift home, I love you sheddies!)
