Just putting this out there, I love the support acts so always arrive a bit early as you never know who you might see, obviously you know the name but that name in a couple of years’ time could mean a very different thing. So, I support them! I’ve been aware of Shame for a…
Yes it’s an easy title to this post seeing as I was in the ‘Electric Ballroom’ in Camden but, he was! I didn’t search out set lists from previous gigs I just turned up an hour early to queue as I wanted a close up view and waited. It was my first time at the Electric…
Attitude! Attitude! ATTITUDE! They smiled, they scowled, they sang, they screamed one second as if performing a nursery rhyme then punching the air and contorting like an Alice in Wonderland villain! Maybe it was the white outfits with thick frills and corsets along with the doll like movement choreography that at times made me think…
So I had a free night in London on a work trip and it was obvious what needed to happen, a quick tube ride to Camden and down to the Dublin Castle for some live music. I arrived and got a drink, took a seat and it wasn’t long before I was in conversation with…
Headline act Hot Wax went through the ringer a bit last night but it only made the crowd love them more. Eatboys, Wonderlux and Citi Dog all ploughed through their sets, then the gremlins hit. They take to the stage and singer Tallulah Sim-Savage had no mike, after a minute of so of screaming in…
The title to this post may make no sense but the night did. Twin Skeletons is a four piece originating from Bath are on their first headline tour. Their bio “Their sonically diverse music provides an intriguing and addictive new sound to the current alternative rock scene as it serves a large range from singalong…
45th Anniversary UK Tour to celebrate the 45th anniversary of both the ‘Replicas’ (1979 as Tubeway Army) and ‘The Pleasure Principle’ (1979). Its going old school! I drove down the coast to Boscombe to the O2 Academy as I’ve done more times than I can remember, starting back in 1991 when it was just the Academy in…
What do I know about Niko B? I know as soon as he sang “Take the gherkin out of the inside”, Who’s that? What’s that? Was a regular play in our house, I like the Guerkins!! My wife was an instant fan and I never tired of hearing that, or Mary Berry, or a song…
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…
