Well outside the sphere of live music I’ve seen: Dido, Queen Of Carthage(play): Based on a chunk of the Aenead and written by Chrostopher Marlowe it was in The Chapel of the House of St. Barnabas near SOHO. The action moves around the venue from room to room to courtyard with even the audience been… Read More
… We’ll get together then….
Well long time no real post, a few gig reviews which you can see just below this one but not much else. I have been busy running GridPP16, our collaborations most recent get together. It went really well and I eventually met my boss who lives in Australia and kept the entire 5 days running… Read More

Gig Review – Eels – 27/06/06 – Astoria, London
Back in the Astoria to see the Eels turned up just after doors so we’d catch Smoosh (onstage on Friday at 19:30) see all the Eels’ set (onstage at 20:15 on Friday) BUT ooooh no. Doors may have been at the same time both nights but Smoosh were not on till 20:00 and Eels till… Read More
Gig Review – Eels – 23/06/06 – Astoria, London
Support: Smoosh Back to the Astoria, like the Underworld in Camden at the start of the year I practically live here now. Sarah and I got here a little late and missed Smoosh and the start of the gig which will be funnier when you see the review for the next night. Anyway this is… Read More
Gig Review – Foo Fighters – 17/06/06 – Hyde Park
Support: Juliette & The Licks Angels & Airwaves Motorhead Queens Of The Stone Age Look at the lineup!!! Beside the AVA(apparently that’s how the kids type Angels & Airwaves) hiccup that’s great.

Gig Review – Foo Fighters – 14/06/06 – Victoria Apollo
Well first and probably last time I will be in this venue. Usually hosting musicals and the ilk but since booting out Movin’ Out early (I think) they were going to be empty for the summer while waiting for Wicked to start in Sept so in step the Foos. The venue itself reminded me of… Read More
Gig Review – Tool – 13/06/06 – Hammersmith Apollo
No Support (that I saw) This was almost two weeks ago 😕 Back to the Hammersmith Apollo. Nice venue, a large version of the Ambassador in Dublin and no real bad place to stand. This show was trippy as all Tool shows should be. Good mix of old and new stuff not a massive long… Read More

Gig Review – Viking Skull, Islington Garage, 06/06/06
Support: GU Medicine B-Movie Heroes Tits Of Death Back in the Garage, last time was for Bezerker et al. Half decent venue sound is good, a bit loud for no real apparent reason but anyway… This was Sarah’s first night in London(and obviously her first show). We missed Tits Of Death but Frog Ninja assures… Read More
