Darkness @ Hammersmith Odeon

They ROCKED. Not as hard as they usually do, hardly surprising as Justin's been ill, but still not bad rocking action... Amazing crowd response too, but personally I could have done without the people being in fancy dress.We went in Edwards before an...

Normally you'd get acdc... but not this time.

Up early to get those AC/DC tickets

C'mon...Good weekend though, started slightly fuzzy with booze, then met the parents for a curry at the Punjab in Covent Garden, then saw David Blaine in his box, he really does seem to be there, I don't get what the trick is still. Is David Blaine c...

Great picture of The Ramones at Canterbury Odeon, looks like 12th October 1980. By Andy Linden....

Everyone, ever, in the world

Got in to the Lord of the Rings Premiere by mistake, and everyone in the world of showbiz was there - all the cast of the film apart from Cate Blanchett I think (So Christopher Lee, Ian Holm, Ian McKellan, Elijah Wood, Liv Tyler, Sean Bean, stacks mo...

John Simm

or the Piss Apollo or whatever it's called these days, sat a few rows in front of us.

Simon Le Bon

He and family were going to see LotR: RotK over the holidays. Nice family, all fairly good looking. They made no effort to hide and everyone kept a discreet distance. Very 'Oh-we-see-celebs-all-the-time' kinda thing. Liars.

It's the vinyl countdown

You've obviously not forgotten that The Darkness album Permission To Land is out on Monday. Popex' very own copy is apparently winging it's way to the office RIGHT NOW, so another sort of review of it tomorrow... Anyway, the album is also out on VIN...

Motley Crue play Hammersmith

If it wasn't a Monday night, I might go to this, 11th June at Hammersmith Odeon, it's Motley Crue. In fact a Tuesday night wouldn't be good either, nor any day from Sunday back round to Friday again are out. If they move this gig to a Saturday, and i...
