Today is popex admin day, dealing with the fallout of all the emails, and also writing reviews

Nirvana @ Birmingham Hummingbird

Time for another bit of back-blogging... this day in 1991 I was at Birmingham Hummingbird to see Nirvana... I was just inspired to add this by stumbling across NirvanaGuide.com, which has the following details for the gig:Setlist:Drain YouAneurysmFlo...

Weekend review

Smashing weekend in Folkestone, they now have a hexagonal pool table in ...

Weekend review

Went to International Student House on Friday for a gig, and to a good pub called The Albany, then to Winchester on Saturday to see MJ Hibbet, had a FOUR HOUR journey back from there because of the rail replacement bus service being caught up behind ...

Darkness review

read my review of The Darkness Carling Homecoming here... very good.

Curry and Mouse Poo

TOP curry yesterday, went to Tayyab near Whitechapel, very good, queued right out the door, which makes a change from all the hustling you get on Brick Lane... had a few pints before in The Ten Bells, also well recommended.Note to self: Never, ever g...

Tayyab

Apparently authentic Pakistani food, absolutely bloody fantastic curry anyway, and well worth the enormous queue we had to get in on Saturday night. It's small, and it's got no booze license, and it was a bun-fight to get a table (much queue jumping)...

Suede were amazing

So glad we went to the Astoria to see Suede on Saturday, they were fantastic. They played two sets, the first being all the non singles that they say they wanted to play - coincidentally it was all their best songs, all the songs they've been ignorin...

The Cure review

Unbelievably, we got into The Cure last night at Barfly Camden, and here is my review... This was the Music Passport charity show, a privileged audience of about 200 competition winners and successful ebay bidders, and then a handful of people like u...

RE: The Cure review

YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY THE BIGGEST PAIR OF SERIOUSLY OSTRACISED **** i HAVE EVER HAD THE DISPLEASURE OF EVEN BEING ROMOTELLY ASSOCIATED WITH. I HAVE NO SISTER.

Darkness Music Passport review

If you are Clare's brother and you're still smarting that we went to The Cure on Friday, then please turn away now... gone? Right, we also went to see The Darkness last night, doing another Music Passport show, and probably it was the highlight of th...

RE: Darkness Music Passport review

Must have been standing right next to you - was also next to their parents last night!

RE: The Cure review

Hi Would just like to say in response to the review i've just read by "Pauly" that it was an absolutely amazing gig to which i will probably never be so fortunate to attend anything of similar size again. I WAS THE SO CALLED WEIRD GIRL WHO PRETENDE...

RE: The Cure review

right on! pauly obviously doesn't know anything about the cure or cure fans... seriously pauly, do a LITTLE research before you post a "review"... what a joke. it's people like you who did NOT deserve to be at the barfly. i had several friends out...

RE: The Cure review

Well. what can I say about this? This is the sort of person who takes the place as a special gig instead of a true fan. The blokes a total liger. It really annoys me and for him to assume Sue fainted to get back stage? well from where I was standing,...

RE: The Cure review

what a bunch of whinging bitches

RE: The Cure review

do you mean a 'ligger'?a liger is a cross between a tiger and a lion. them Scientists made one, specially, and everything. them Scientists are DEDD CLEVVER!i want to be one of them Scientists when i am an grown up.if pauly is a liger, i want to str...

RE: The Cure review

neat.you've managed to annoy a whole load of "twoo fans". one of the things that I always enjoy about my privileged and lofty position in the music industry is watching the looks on the faces of those poor "twoo fans" as I waltz past their queue, and...

RE: The Cure review

why cant you understand why were annoyed? WE'RE not whinging....im sure it was pauly WHINGING and his unsubstantiated ASUMPTIONS that started all this off!!!

RE: The Cure review

whilst im unsure if pauly would call himself a "true fan" he does like the cure, lots.. i think it was last year he was going on and on about seeing the cure but having to miss it because of a wedding or something.. so i think he deserved this, he pu...

RE: The Cure review

Pauly knows lots about the Pet Shop Boys.

If I told you, I'd have to kill you.

RE: The Cure review

"the" pet shop boys... or just pet shop boys in general?

RE: Darkness Music Passport review

no Pet Shop Boys review? For shame!

Pet Shop Boys review

Was a bit squiffy, don't remember much of it, first we went to the Lock Tavern, then we went into the Barfly...The stage was very nicely set out, they surrounded that end of the Barfly in mirrors, and even had a mirrored floor. Chris had big sunglass...

Pixies review

Pixies were amazing last night at Brixton, could be one of the best gigs ever. We warmed up for the show with a few pints of Old Rosie in The Beehive (Brixton Academy gigs are about the only time I can persuade anyone go in a Wetherspoons) so missed ...

deffo enjoyed your review

it's a wonder people like that are still in business...should have sent gordon ramsey in to sort then out!!!

I retract this review

It was rubbish this weekend, has it changed hands again?

Darkness review

Not worth reposting it here, it's up on popex, you can read it there... a good night, as I've said before the best thing about Brixton gigs is I'm allowed to go in the Wetherspoons beforehand. Clare's not keen on that pub (The Beehive), and it's easy...

Bad Curry

Went to Eastern Nights on Saturday evening, at the top of the Old High Street for a curry, as it had been recommended. Normally in Folkestone we'd go to The New Delhi, and it's always good, but OH NO, I had to speak up and insist we try something new...

The Cure Passport gig

Amazing, we got in to the Barfly, read my Cure review.

The Beta Band

Tonight's venue is crammed with indie's brightest and best, all happily expectant

according to the review in the Independent, that's me in particular to which they were referring...

Delirious?

Ha, AWFUL christian rock. I was accompanying a friend who was reviewing or something.
