Preview: Bigface Reggae

on September 18th, 2011 at 17:40
Posted In: Reviews, Chinners, Preview

Bigface Reggae could quite possibly provide the soundtrack to the Dorset summer of 2011 with appearances at all the local festivals Endorse It In Dorset, Dorset Great Steam Fair, Grooves on The Green and Wind Fest. The band are fronted by the two of the most talented front men Si Genaro and Si Crocket who together with their band give just one of the most uplifting live performances their totally original style is just something that could not be compared to anything that has been before.

Panic Room/Vending Machine Repairmen

Mr Kyps, Poole

Panic Room

A mild Thursday night & we are looking forward to the long awaited return to these shores of Northern rockers ‘David R. Black’. Sadly they’ve decided on a no show & ‘apparently’ not bothered letting the venue know either! Great start-not! As a last minute replacement we welcome on stage a covers band in the shape of ‘Vending Machine Repairmen’. Great name,nothing like having a moniker that couldn’t describe you less! They are a confident 5 piece who play well known covers from down the years. I’m not overkeen on the guitars however, there’s a real keyboard-esque element to the sound. This aside they are a decent warm-up for the headliners and end their set with the Hazel O’Connor classic ‘Will You’.

Musicosity Festival – Not Advised/Canada Water/Checking Pulse/We Start Partys/Let’s Go Safari

on September 4th, 2011 at 18:42

Old Fire Station, Bournemouth

Well this is my first review in a while! And what a way to come back to reviewing since returning from Reading Festival, as The Old Fire Station hosted one of the main events at The Musicosity Festival on the Sunday. Sadly, Fridays line-up received a small crowd of around twenty five people according to sources I was told, but I was determined the atmosphere would pick up after Not Advised’s last visit to Bournemouth resulted in a sell-out iBar show. The Southampton based pop punk outfit will have been brimming with confidence as the last crowd they had were more than happy to sing along and get moving.

Mr Kyps, Poole Sunday 30th October 2011

The end of 2010 saw New Model Army reach their 30th Anniversary with marathon celebrationary concerts on four continents, box-set releases and a wave of good will. And still they show no sign of slowing down – spending this year preparing a new studio album to follow 2009’s “Today Is A Good Day”, their third new album in five years and widely acclaimed as being equal to their very best.

Preview: Y & T To Play The Brook, 12th October 2011

on September 2nd, 2011 at 20:44
Posted In: Preview

The Brook, Southampton

Before Motley Crue, before RATT, even before there was a Metallica, Y&T was slogging away in sweaty rock clubs around America. When the band formed in the early 1970s, little did they know they would set the standard for hard rock bands that trailed. Many of the biggest acts of the ’80s became popular opening for headliners Y&T and cut their teeth on the band, as evidenced by the Y&T mentions in tell-all books by acts such as Metallica and Motley Crue.
