Tonight was a super bill of three hard working bands, fabulous value for money! First up are The Bites who have been attracting a lot of attention as the band to watch from LA. As first support there’s only time for 8 songs, six from their successful debut Squeeze, the band new track ‘Fire In […]
The Maid of Stone Festival Makes a Triumphant Return to Mote Park! The lighting was a little lacking at times, but the music was victorious and when Rock Royality ‘Mr Big’ came to town in a literal blaze of glory as you’d expect in true rock’n’roll style, the crowd hit apocalyptic! But what made this […]
Fashionista darlings Palaye Royale delivered a spellbinding performance at their very intimate acoustic show at Rough Trade East for the launch of their greatly anticipate new album Death or Glory, ahead of their upcoming show at Wembley Arena! For a band of this caliber to play an intimate gig like this was always going be […]
It’s seven years since Tuk Smith made it to the UK, and its long overdue. When I spoke to him before the UK tour he said he didn’t know what to expect. He need not have worried, the UK had not forgotten him and with a number of sold out shows and his friendly approach […]
Star Circus opened proceedings with a new guitarist Owen Palmer who apparently is not a permanent member,although they would like him to be, and indeed he fitted in well with the band’s image and style of playing, giving them a bit more of a Thin Lizzy feel at times.

Well yes, and my TotalRock companion Roland Gent (yes, he of the looniest of all tunes) and myself are here to cover it. I do love Rebellion, with the […]
In a Summer where a lot of outdoor events have had their spirits dampened by wet weather, it is great to have an evening when I can sit on the grass, cold drink in hand and get lost in some quality tuneage with my far better half. Hardwicke Circus kick things off in great style […]
Bonnie Tyler was to support Michael Bolton at the 02, but due to public demand, when that show was cancelled, she rescheduled last minute to the Indigo 02 which is packed with some of the most enthusiastic fans I have seen, ABBA-mania comes to mind. There’s no support band, instead Ultimate Power DJ warmed up […]
