Dangerous to my ears maybe, loud! But a case of who cares, they were headlining a small tour and loving every minute. A great band I follow, great songs, great melodies, just a great balance of sound which when given a live stage is amplified, in a great way! Gloves are off, the melodic guitar…
Went in cold (metaphorically as only had a quick Spotify listen on the way there), came out with a playlist, signed record and a plus ticked on my Spotify. They were a great live act that im pleased i’ve seen. Towards the end he said “we’ve only got two songs left, these will be high…
Met these lads last year after a day of music, I walked into the Joiners in Southampton and for me they owned the day / night. It wasn’t a competition but when you stand back and reflect on your day, they stood out by a mile. Dates haven’t lined up for gigs since but this…
I last saw Pop Will Eat Itself in the latter part of 2022, doesn’t seem that long ago. They were fantastic then, they were fantastic tonight! But why expect any different! It’s PWEI!! Coming on to ‘The Incredible P.W.E.I. vs. the Moral Majority’, the opening track of ‘Cure for Insanity’ and rolling into ‘Dance for…
Interrobang‽, an agitprop post-punk band formed in 2012 by ex-Chumbawamba lead singer Dunstan Bruce along with ex-Chumbawamba drummer Harry Hamer and ex-Regular Fries guitarist Stephen Griffin. ‘The interrobang is a combination of the question mark and the exclamation point, and is used to convey an excited question.’ ‘The interrobang is a printed punctuation mark (‽),…
Dead Freights hosted a hometown gig last night at The Stage Door in Southampton, a small cabaret venue with a max capacity of 150 standing, an intimate affair attended by a large number of family and friends of all bands present. And why not, its great to play occasionally for those who support you. First…
A Wednesday night in Bristol, Johnny Marr with Gaz Coombes in support. A 2 hour drive followed by queuing in light rain, thanks O2 priority for putting their priority queue out in the elements, it wasn’t even a light mist really by that point really. The setlist The Encore I almost feel that I need…
I saw lucky enough too see Gaz Coombes recently on March 14th of this year perform a one man show to a small audience in Southampton. This time there was a band, a five piece band, the same but different!. My image but sadly not my setlist. Gaz Coombes came onstage and had roughly 45…
Sounds a better title than Drum and Talent. Like a close-nit group of lads putting on a show for their mates and showing just how good they are! The place was bouncing! Always loved Drum & Bass and a great MC is a sight to behold, seen many over the years and rap music is…
Sunday, Monday, whatever the day, when these guys come to town you can but smile, and yes I going to say it, be happy! Shaun Ryder is his usual calm self, often hidden from view by Bez walking the stage with Rowetta dazzling in silver. She took to the stage from the off, her voice…
