Passion Pit: Live, Nottingham Rock City, 9th March 2010

Passion Pit: Live, Nottingham Rock City, 9th March 2010

I swan into Nottingham Rock City like utter royalty without needing to queue up for anything at all, thanks to my generous bouncer chums. Tonight we have the highly unusual and totally unprecedented (for me) occurrence where the headliners...

The Wizard Of Oz: Theatre Review

The Wizard Of Oz: Theatre Review

So it’s off to meet the Wizard....but is it a wonderful wizard? That was the question on my lips as I visited the Carlton Operatic Society’s production of the infamous musical extravaganza The Wizard Of Oz at Nottingham’s Playhouse...

The Soft Pack: Live, Nottingham Bodega Social, 26th February 2010

Dot To Dot 2009: The Soft Pack

Formerly known as The Muslims (yes, we read Wikipedia too), this lot have probably only made one mistake in their band life so far and that was to change their name to The Soft Pack. How dull. They were anything but at last...

Cobra Starship: Hot Mess, Album Review

Can rock, pop and electro mix? Well, Fueled By Ramen’s most surprising signing Cobra Starship have given it a damn good go on their latest album, Hot Mess. It’s a surprising mix of big-time anthems, dancefloor hits, captivating choruses...
