#RPGaDAY2022 Day 16 – What would be your perfect game?

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 16 – What would be your perfect game?

GIG 207: Clawfinger / Misery Loves Co. – The Underworld, 24th April 1995

I'd been looking forward to this one. An amazing duo of bands sharing the same stage and at The Underworld - which was a really nice small(ish) venue underneath The Worlds End pub in Camden. Both bands were heavier than the music I was generally listening to at the time. I tended to be a … Continue reading GIG 207: Clawfinger / Misery Loves Co. – The Underworld, 24th April 1995

GIG 206: Vendemmian / Into The Abyss / Cathedral Lung – Marquee, 23rd April 1995

This was the second night of three gigs in a row. The previous night's gig had been a bit of a disappointment so I was hoping for tonights to be better. It certainly started off well with Cathedral Lung, whom I'd seen earlier in the year and enjoyed. They were possibly even better on this … Continue reading GIG 206: Vendemmian / Into The Abyss / Cathedral Lung – Marquee, 23rd April 1995

GIG 205: Rosetta Stone / Enrapture – The Underworld, 22nd April 1995

Having this evenings gig at The Underworld meant that an afternoon spent exploring Camden Market seemed like the sensible things to do. Given it was a Saturday and the Markets would be in full gear. I'd never seen Rosetta Stone before so was really keen on finally getting to see them live. I'm not sure … Continue reading GIG 205: Rosetta Stone / Enrapture – The Underworld, 22nd April 1995

Credit To The Nation were a British hip-hop group that had become pretty popular on the Indie scene - especially since their 1993 single "Call It What You Want" which sampled Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit". Other tracks followed, including the brilliant "Enough Is Enough" which they did with long time associates and friends Chumbawamba. … Continue reading GIG 204: Credit To The Nation – Camden Palace, 11th April 1995
