The nephews have gone home, it's been a fantastic week, but tiring... haven't spent that much time with them both, EVER! Looking forward to our family holiday we've just booked for 20 of us in Greece somewhere.Today; washing, tidying, sitting, watchi...

The first time I saw The Darkness

The official site had this to say about the day:Saturday 7 July 2001: Uncle Bob's Wedding Reception @ The Water Rats, Kings CrossA handful of Darkness enthusiasts were conspicuous by their absence, apparently preferring to attend an open-air recital ...

The Darkness @ The Barfly

Though The Darkness had played The Monarch 6 times before I saw them, this was my first time there, a week after the first time I saw them. I think....

Stalking The Darkness

Got a smashing gift yesterday, of a t-shirt thrown into the crowd by Justin of The Darkness, at a gig they did at Metro, probably a couple of years ago now. Got quite drunk, and everyone decided that a friend whose birthday it was should wear the t-s...

More redesign

Goign to do more stuff on the redesign today and REALLY finish this damn admin system... the big stumbling block is making one page that lets a user easily edit lots of database entries at once... I've always stuck to a "one page - one row from the d...

Darkness Cancelled!

There's a rumour going around that tonigh's show at Leas Cliff Hall might be off, because Justin Hawkins has lost his voice... Call the venue to check if you're travelling a long way!I'm still looking for a ticket for it, or the rescheduled show......

The Darkness

The band seem to have recently updated their official site, they have a new forum system in place, and it's being constantly updated with news of cancellations etc...A mate spoke to Dan Hawkins last night, he says the gig is definitely on, there are ...

The Darkness Passport Gig

The Darkness play a music passport show at Barfly London... Not sure whether to use up one of my competition entries on them, as I've seen them so many times...

The Darkness in Cardiff

There must be some kind of rumour going around that The Darkness are playing a gig in Cardiff, as I've noticed a few search queris the last couple of days...The Darkness last played Cardiff Uni on the 5th of October 2003, and played Barfly Cardiff in...

The Darkness Pictures

Bumped into a friend last night in the pub who'd just got some photos back from another friend, from a night out about two years ago. I remembered going drinking, but had forgotten that we ended up going to see The Darkness at Metro on Oxford Street,...

The Darkness gigography

Shows that The Darkness played Australia earlier this year, a one time visit I think... they don't have the new dates on the site yet for some reason...Sunday 1 February: Big Day Out 2004, Perth, AustraliaFriday 30 January: Big Day Out 2004, Adelaide...

The Darkness play Brixton, slight return

A cheeky warmup show for the boys from Lowestoft... not exactly an intimate moment, and not cheap at 24 quid a ticket, but it'll be ace to see them again this year, and I can't stand the idea of going to Wembley...Thanks JonN!Ah, waitaminute, this me...

I have two spare for The Darkness at Brixton too!

Leave a message.

They've fixed the Darkness picture

That item's been pulled but it's been put on again, with a new picture. Actually of The Darkness this time... bit pricey for me still....

Has Frankie quite The Darkness?

The Sun say so, maybe it's just a publicity thing though... not heard anything from the band for a while.

Got the first Darkness EP?

They have gone for decent amounts of money before, here's one just listed, good luck. Ah, here's the perfect accompaniment to the t-shirt I already have too...On to the blog, great weekend. Friday saw a visit from Emma and a rare trip to Chambers. Ve...

The Darkness

Who can say if The Melody Maker would have featured The Darkness on their cover or not? If they'd been around at the same time, maybe.Anyway, The Darkness provided the rock based entertainment at the Bang Magazine launch party last night, and it was ...

Siobhan Donaghy

she was drinking in the VIP bit. We high-fived, she looked worried, I looked drunk. She had a blue and white stripy top, very nice.

Har Mar Superstar

Har Mar Super Star was there also. He did Karaoke but was nowhere near as good as Pauly.

The Darkness

The Darkness showed up at Do Me Bad Things at the Dublin Castle last night (Tues 27th). They didn't look all rich and famous, just fitted in like they always used to do.

Bassist from the Darkness

At the Barfly last night with some pals. Sitting downstairs by the DJ bit. Looks a lot older in the flesh.

The Darkness Rock the Barfly

Not to be missed......

Mad Metal Mothers THE DARKNESS play at the Casino Royale third birthday party tomorrow (Saturday) night, you have to see them - Neds Atomic Dustbin will kick out quite early, so don't fret, there is time to see both. And if you're not going to see Ne...

Gigs at the weekend, both amazing

Neds Atomic Dustbin was FANTASTIC on Saturday... I really wasn't sure what to expect, but it was cracking. Predictable crowd of late twenties / early 30s aged indie kids, and nearly all male too, but it kicked off right away, and kept going until the...
