				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Enter Shikari have announced a new documentary mini-series to accompany the release of frontman Rou Reynolds’ recent book ‘<em>A Treatise On Possibility’</em>.</p>
<p>The first of four mini-documentaries <em>‘A Film On Possibility’</em>, will explore the themes of the book and how they relate to tracks from the album. This will then be followed by three subsequent episodes that will each air at 6 pm over the next three days on the band’s YouTube channel. They are described as <em>‘One part album-making-of, one part anthropological study’.</em></p>
<p>The films will feature special guests namely the writer and activist George Monbiot, academic Dacher Keltner and philosopher Toby Ord and of course the band themselves. In the episodes, they will discuss issues such as climate catastrophe, the dangers of social media, and existential peril.</p>
<p>When asked about the series Reynolds stated that <em>“There’s a 1 in 6 chance that humanity makes it through this century, In a world of TikToks, Tweets, and vox pops, we lose depth, detail, and broader perspectives. We get lost in the 24 hour news cycle, advertising, and online debate. This is us delving headfirst into a whole range of dizzying, yet critical, topics. Knowledge is power.”</em></p>

<p>— ENTER SHIKARI (@ENTERSHIKARI) <a href="https://twitter.com/ENTERSHIKARI/status/1251080610518622208?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 17, 2020</a></p></blockquote>
<p><script src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" async="" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>The band announced the accompanying book published this month back in April along with their surprise lockdown compilation <a title="Enter Shikari Release New Album ‘Moratorium (Broadcasts From The Interruption)’" href="http://www.mxdwn.co.uk/news/enter-shikari-release-new-album-moratorium-broadcasts-from-the-interruption/"><em>‘Moratorium (Broadcasts From The Interruption)’</em></a>.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.nme.com/news/music/enter-shikari-on-their-new-live-album-new-book-and-post-covid-society-2921523">Reynolds told NME</a> “<em>It’s really an analysis of the world that it was written in, It goes into social psychology, anthropology, philosophy and more. It’s exploring human possibility, where we’re going, what our potential is and the trajectories we’re on.”</em></p>
<p>In addition to the documentaries, Enter Shikari have also lined up two intimate shows in Glasgow this November, in collaboration with music industry climate awareness group Music Declares Emergency.</p>
<p>The shows purposely coincide with the COP26 Climate Summit that will take place in the city this November. The group will play at the Glasgow QMU on November 3 and 4, with tickets on sale <a class="monsterinsights-outbound-link" href="https://www.entershikari.com/shows" target="_top" data-vars-action="https://www.entershikari.com/shows" data-vars-category="outbound-link" data-vars-label="here">here</a> this Friday (July 30) at 10 am.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The organisers of Slam Dunk Festival recently shared an update on what entry requirements will be required for this year’s event due to the coronavirus crisis. Slam Dunk the UK Pop-Punk, Emo, Metal, and Alternative festival is usually held in May but then it was decided that they would move their schedule back so it could coincide with the recent reopening of live events after ‘freedom day’ last Monday on July 19.</p>
<p>Yesterday (July 22), the festival’s official Instagram account posted an update with all the relevant information regarding entry into the festival. Perhaps surprisingly to some or greatly received by others revealing that attendees will not need to be double vaccinated to gain entry.</p>
<blockquote class="instagram-media" style="background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);" data-instgrm-captioned="" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/CRoqkkXKt5I/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" data-instgrm-version="13">

<p>Headliners for the festival will include the likes of Sum 41 and Don Broco, with other big names on the bill such as Frank Turner &amp; The Sleeping Souls, Alkaline Trio, Funeral For A Friend, While She Sleeps, Comeback Kid, The Story So Far, We Are The In Crowd, NOFX and many more. The Event has two editions much like Reading and Leeds with the North edition of the event, held at Temple Newsam in Leeds will take place on September 4, while Slam Dunk South in Hatfield Park, Hertfordshire will take place on September 5.</p>
<p>As seen in the post at least one of the following criteria would be accepted in order to gain entry:</p>
<ul>
<li dir="ltr">Proof of a negative lateral flow or PCR test result logged within 48 hours of the event OR</li>
<li dir="ltr">Proof of immunity based upon a positive PCR test result, clear of the 10 day isolation period, logged within 180 days of the event OR</li>
<li dir="ltr">Proof of double vaccination, with the 2nd dose received at least 14 days prior to the event</li>
</ul>
<p>Meanwhile, Prime Minister Boris Johnson has urged nightclubs and any large events to check for<em> ‘COVID passports’</em> now that the UK’s coronavirus restrictions have been lifted. At a Downing Street press conference last week, he stated: <em>“As a matter of social responsibility we’re urging nightclubs and other venues with large crowds to make use of the NHS COVID pass, which shows proof of vaccination, a recent negative test or natural immunity as a means of entry.”</em></p>
