on wednesday 14th November the bearded wonder and friend of the brush will be climbing Snowdon with our promoter dj Stu to raise money for cancer research as both of them are bearded the whole "movember" thing is not an option , watch the video below to see what Pips saying about it all....
The Inbetweener and friend of the pink toothbrush James Buckley has made his directorial debut on fellow friends of The Pink Toothbrush Essex band The Milk's new music video for their single 'Every Time We Fight.'
Asked how he got involved, Buckley said: "I got involved through mutual friends. I've liked the band for some time and I just an email out of the blue from a mate of mine (the brush's very own promoter Stu lol) who knows the band asking if I'd get involved in the video. I put myself forward to direct and I came up with the concept of the video as well. It's been the most rewarding thing I've done in my career so far."
Then asked what the video was about and his role in it, the actor added: "The band have described the song as a love letter to the working class and I've basically filmed the video in the working men's club where my dad would drag me to on a Friday and I still drink in now."
He continued: "It's about those characters that you see in the every pub and capturing that in a beautiful manner. There's a back story of a factory closing and how the people then come together as a community. The song was written at the same time as the London riots and it's a kick back at that. I play a worker, who rallies everyone together."
Stu from the club was also on set making a behind the scenes feature which will be out shortly ..... expect us at the brush blog to be shouting about THE MILK as we honestly believe they are the next big thing !!!!
unfortunatly James and co are still editing the video so in the meantime feast your eyes on the last single "Broke Up The Family"

Soundgarden will headline this summer's Hard Rock Calling festival in London.
The reunited grunge band, who will also perform at this summer's Download Festival, join Bruce Springsteen and Paul Simon in headlining the event.
Hard Rock Calling will run from July 13 – 15, with Soundgarden headlining the opening night (July 13), Bruce Springsteen the second night (July 14) and Paul Simon closing the show on July 15 by performing his classic album 'Graceland' in its entirety.
The festival's supporting bill, which included the likes of The Kills, Kaiser Chiefs, Adam Ant, Frankie And The Heartstrings, Stevie Nicks and Ray Davies in 2011, will be confirmed in the coming weeks.
See Hardrockcalling.co.uk for more information about the festival.
For those who don’t know you, give us an introduction you are…OLUGBENGA. All caps. Bass player in Metronomy, laptop DJ, remixer.
What did you do at the weekend? I played a show with Metronomy in Tours, a lovely city about two hours south of Paris. We drove, so Friday and Sunday were mostly spent sitting in a van watching Boardwalk Empire and working on a remix.
Tell us how you got into music, and doing what you do now…I grew up singing with my Von Trappe-style family. Then I sang in a gospel choir. Was briefly in a hip-hop outfit called Tribes of the Most High with some friends from church (we were young, what can I say?). Fastforward a few years, and I was singing for a dubstep outfit called Various Production and started touring with them and a couple of other bands. Then I got an email from a mutual friend asking if I was interested in trying out for Metronomy. In the last year (while Joe Mount finished the new album), I taught myself how to DJ with Ableton Live and started doing remixes.
If you could work with anyone in the world, who would it be? I don't know if I'd want to work with him (frankly, I'd be too scared). But I'd love to watch Trent Reznor put an album together. Ideally one with Alan Moulder involved.
Also, I would have loved to see Jay Dilla put a beat together. Apparently it only took him about 15mins to make a classic. Could we maybe just get the universe to send him back for 15mins?
We wanna know your Top 3…
Artists / Dj’s - EAN, Kanye West, Om Unit
Blogs - RapRadar, The Lefsetz Letter, Jeremy Scahill on the Nation
Tracks - Three Trapped Tigers '11', Take That 'Affirmation' (yeah, seriously), Late of the Pier 'Best In Class (Soulwax Remix)'
