We have to thank BST for bringing Christone ‘Kingfish’ Ingram to our attention as he’s a bit of a prodigy having won a Grammy being only 23 and having performed in the White House at age fifteen. He already has two albums out ‘Kingfish’ delivering excellent Muddy Waters style Delta […]
Having a gig at an old theatrical venue always adds to the sense of occasion and tonight at the London Palladium is no exception. Steve Vai also breaks the gig into two sets with an Interval which is also eminently civilised. What is not traditional is the large electronic screen, […]
Words: Diamond Dave Photos: Nigel Chapman The effect that the band Joy Division have had on modern music is unmistakeable and it is shown in this wonderful set from Peter Hook And The Light performed as they ventured across the Penines to play the two Joy Division albums “Unknown Pleasures” […]
The Rolling Stones BST Hyde Park 3rd July 2022 Words Kahmel Farahani Photos Dawn Osborne If there was ever a historic connection between a band and a certain space, then it is between The Rolling Stones and Hyde Park. From their historic free show there in 1969 to their 50th anniversary shows […]
Creeper are a new band for me and first impressions are memorable. Singer Will Gould cuts a striking figure with a body like a ballet dancer. Tall with a jet black quiff and razor sharp cheekbones he knows how to strike a pose (and facially looks a bit like Alice […]
Dust instead of mud, sunshine instead of rain and hot temperatures all day long. Day 4 of the Nova Rock festival started off with Austrian beer tent vibes and free beers as well as yellow and green hats for early visitors at the Red Stage. Since 2013 Wendy’s Böhmische Blasmusikkapelle […]
BST Hyde Park- Sunday 26th June 2022 Robert Plant and Alison Krauss: Plant and Kraus were immediately met with a roar from the crowd the moment they stepped out onto the sunny stage in London’s beautiful Hyde Park. Although the opening of the set was strong, it was the 5th […]
The mud on the camping ground and the stage area had finally dried up and fans were welcomed by a nice warm breeze and sun all day long at Nova Rock Festival. Those fans with access to the VIP area also got to enjoy a rum cocktail out of a […]
The morning of day two of Nova Rock 2022 started with more rain showers and strong wind as well as sleep deprivation caused by either partying too hard or/and other fans running around the camping area with a megaphone. No rest for the wicked! In the afternoon, the sun fought […]
From June 9 to June 12, music fans were celebrating the return of Nova Rock 2022 – Austria’s biggest rock festival – with 225,000 visitors flocking to the Pannonia Fields in Nickelsdorf near the Austro-Hungarian border. After a two-year break, the festival broke its previous attendance record. It also seemed […]
Everything I personally wanted to see on the third day was on the Opus stage and it felt good to change it up a little. So instead of wandering all over the enormous Download site a lot, as I had over the first two days, I decided to have the […]
Dirty Honey kicked off the Opus stage on Saturday. Although I have never seen them live (this is their first UK show) I have been impressed by their singles which I have been playing. Their sound is like the Southern Rock 80s stuff like the Black Crowes with a definite […]
