It was another Monday night 'Student/Alternative' night in Barnet. The band, Fluff on this occasion, were entirely forgettable but the club night and company were fun. I know Nick, Dawn, Christine, Julie and a double dose of Liz's were all there that night. Price: Unknown

GIG 104: Christian Death / Marionettes – The Dome, 30th October 1992
I was never a big fan of Christian Death, although I was a big fan of the Marionettes (or The Screaming Marionettes as they were called before they dropped the 'Screaming' for some reason) - plus on top of everything else it was almost Halloween and what better way to go and celebrate than a … Continue reading GIG 104: Christian Death / Marionettes – The Dome, 30th October 1992

GIG 103: Rubicon / Le Faye – Brighton Pavilion Theatre, 16th October 1992
One of my favourite bands of the late 80's - all the way through to today - was Fields of the Nephilim. Sadly in the early 90's the band split up with lead singer, Carl McCoy, forming The Nefilim and the rest of the band forming Rubicon. It was Rubicon who drew me down to … Continue reading GIG 103: Rubicon / Le Faye – Brighton Pavilion Theatre, 16th October 1992
GIG 102: Nothing But Trouble – The Dandy Lion, 17th August 1992
It'd been a hectic summer (plus I had a small operation that meant I wasn't going gigging/clubbing so much) so it'd been a while since I'd been to The Dandy Lion's Indie/Student night but we were all up and active again. The music was typically good, the friends (on this occasion Dawn, Julie, Gideon, Shane, … Continue reading GIG 102: Nothing But Trouble – The Dandy Lion, 17th August 1992
GIG 101: Raw Melody Men (aka New Model Army) / Ed Alleyne-Johnson – The Venue, 16th May 1992
It was my 20th birthday and after spending a day in a London pub we trekked down to the wastelands of "South" London and the New Cross Venue for one of those 'elusive' secret gigs. "Raw Melody Men" were the band whose name graced the tickets and poster next to the venue door but we'd … Continue reading GIG 101: Raw Melody Men (aka New Model Army) / Ed Alleyne-Johnson – The Venue, 16th May 1992
Face The Music with Andreas Lundstrom
Most interviews with games industry figures tend to be about our latest game or “hot new thing” we’re working on. But what about the people behind the games we play and, hopefully, love? Little is said, or explored, of the actual person’s tastes, or how they got into the hobby, etc. Face The Music is … Continue reading Face The Music with Andreas Lundstrom
GIG 100: The Levellers / Back To The Planet – Brixton Academy, 15th May 1992
It was the day before my 20th birthday and my 100th gig... and what better band to see to celebrate it than one of the best all-time live bands, the mighty Levellers. I'd seen The Levellers only once before (the previous October (GIG 093) at The Town & Country Club in Kentish Town) but this … Continue reading GIG 100: The Levellers / Back To The Planet – Brixton Academy, 15th May 1992
