It's all go today

It's all go today, XFM Winter Wonderland tickets sold out before I managed to send out a spam about them, so now doing a bit of marketing of The Eagles Farewell Tour. I'd like to see them, but it's 75 quid or so for tix... did this suddenly turn into...

Primal Scream slight return

Some would have you believe the people of Folkestone are mad

The evidence cited in support would be that most locals there are firmly behind a planned shopping development, says the Guardian... I think the HMV is a GOOD THING, not so sure about Asda but who knows. We have plenty of little independent shops, an...

Brilliant Hibbett gig last night

Had a proper night of booze last night, haven't been out in the week for ages. Saw MJ Hibbett at Soho's own 12 Bar club last night, and the place was rammed - WITH GIRLS??? Is this the power of the pop video? If they were expecting a stage show of fl...

RE: Q Magazine's best gigs ever

The Darkness at Hammersmith would def make it into mine, but as you say, that was as much about being there in a big group. Others I'd say would be: Beta Band at the Astoria; Primal Scream at Brix Academy (with Death in Vegas supporting); Radiohead's...

Review: Cooper Temple Clause @ Camden Barfly

Cooper Temple Clause @ The Water Rats

Let's start on a downer: Their name, it is RUBBISH. There are SIX of them, that is rubbish. They are look like an indie boyband, that is rubbish. One of them (guitarist Tom Bellamy) was playing whilst sitting on the floor messing about with some mad ...
