Welcome to #RPGaDAY2022! Now in its ninth year, #RPGaDAY was originally created by RPG author and games designer David Chapman (Conspiracy X, Doctor Who, etc) as a bit of fun and to get people talking about tabletop roleplaying games. August was chosen, I believe, to coincide with tabletop roleplaying’s gaming mecca that is Gen Con … Continue reading #RPGaDAY2022 Day 26 – Why does your character do what they do?

GIG 217: East 17 / Peter Andre – Wembley Arena, 1st July 1995
You have not read this incorrectly. I did actually go to see East 17, with Peter Andre in support. Not only that but I went willingly and on purpose. I know, right? A friend of mine (Barbie Mike) and myself had decided to try and see some of the big pop bands of the day … Continue reading GIG 217: East 17 / Peter Andre – Wembley Arena, 1st July 1995

GIG 216: Econoline Crush / Interact – The Borderline, 17th June 1995
Econoline Crush were a Canadian Alt-Rock band that I liked so seeing them play the relatively small Borderline was a real treat. A few of us met up for the gig, which was on a Saturday evening so we kind of treated it as a warm up before we went clubbing at Slimelight at the … Continue reading GIG 216: Econoline Crush / Interact – The Borderline, 17th June 1995

GIG 215: Warrior Soul / Clawfinger / Headswin / Misery Loves Co. – Astoria, 15th June 1995
The Kerrang-Carlsberg Tour 1995 rolled into London and took over The Astoria for the night. Four bands, three of whom I'd seen before, and a night of headbanding awaited. I had a week off so really had no excuse for arriving late at this gig. But for some reason we did arrive late and unfortunately … Continue reading GIG 215: Warrior Soul / Clawfinger / Headswin / Misery Loves Co. – Astoria, 15th June 1995

GIG 214: Whale / Ringo – The Water Rats, 12th June 1995
I could have been in Stockholm for this gig rather than London. Michael, Francesca and I were three of very few Brits in The Water Rats on this Monday evening. Whale were pretty popular in their native Sweden and had scored a top 10 hit over there, whereas it would only be somepoint this month … Continue reading GIG 214: Whale / Ringo – The Water Rats, 12th June 1995

GIG 213: The Marionettes / Dream Disciples / Witching Hour – The Underworld, 9th June 1995
Friday night and a Camden double bill of a gig at The Underworld followed by clubbing at The Electric Ballroom for their Full Tilt night. Loads of people were out and a great night beckoned. I'd seen first support, Witching Hour, a few years before (GIG 098) and had really enjoyed them at the time. … Continue reading GIG 213: The Marionettes / Dream Disciples / Witching Hour – The Underworld, 9th June 1995
