I'd really enjoyed seeing Terrorvision in October '94 (GIG 188) so when they announced a date at Brixton Academy (one of my favourite venues) I quickly snapped up a ticket. It was a Sunday evening and Angela, Alex, Mike R, Oli, Surfer Boy and myself all headed down south of the river to the gig. … Continue reading GIG 210: Terrorvision / EMF / Joyrider – Brixton Academy, 21st May 1995
#RPGaDAY2022 Day 18 – Where is your favourite place to play?
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 18 – Where is your favourite place to play?
GIG 209: Ugly Kid Joe – LA2, 15th May 1995
There was a time in 1992 that Ugly Kid Joe ruled the summer. 'Everything About You', 'Neighbor' and 'Cats in the Cradle' blasted out loudly everywhere and our little group used to sing merrily along when we heard them. It took me until 1995 to finally see them in concert. My love of them had … Continue reading GIG 209: Ugly Kid Joe – LA2, 15th May 1995

GIG 208: Warrior Soul – Camden Palace, 9th May 1995
Tuesday night and The Feet First Indie Rock night at Camden Palace in Mornington Crescent beckoned - with American rock band Warrior Soul taking the midnight live band slot. A few of us met up at The Southampton Arms, the pub opposite Camden Palace, for a few drinks before heading over the road for the … Continue reading GIG 208: Warrior Soul – Camden Palace, 9th May 1995

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
