Aha here's why Hammersmith Odeon changed its name again

It's a joint venture with MAMA Group, HMV and MAMA Group (who you might have known under the name Channelfly, own Barfly, and owned popex etc) co-own the venues or something and HMV get the branding rights.Saw this happen on the listings that I have ...

This seems to be the oldest surviving popex news post

Good to hear from you

I have just been thinking about popex again recently, and how much easier it would be to make it so much better with all the knowledge I have now! Bah, Channelfly still own the rights to it, though they have no intention of doing anything with it as ...

Popex throwback

Hi Paul,

You won't remember me from within the 150,000 users but I can remember getting the odd email directly from you!!

My name is Mike Nash, just thought i'd say thanks for the memories!

Black Monday

Stop selling everyone, and you the news, stop telling people how bad it is, it's just making the ill informed small investors like me worry more, and sell, and exacerbate the problem. The market is only about as low as it was in mid August right now,...

Boo, just found this Amy Winehouse message from 3 years ago

Not only was she a clean living newcomer to the world of pop then, but she'd just bigged up popex in an interview on that webwise column. Looks like the BBC update that page by hand, and they've not kept a complete archive of all the celebs they inte...

PopEx

I am number 8 in the popex charts, not done this well for a while, even though it's my game... Is this the right time for me to be dumping my good performing shares and buying Shayne Ward (x-factor winner) instead? I'm feeling in the mood for a gambl...
