Another live music trip coming up in May for me.

Nickelback, Enter Shikari and Alice Cooper / Motley Crue all in the same week. Then back home after that lot.

Went to Roxette and also Soundwave festival last month. All good.

Nickelback, Enter Shikari and Alice Cooper / Motley Crue all in the same week.

Nickelback - Exceeded my expectations (which weren't too high to be honest given all the negative comment this band seems to attract) and it was a good show.

Enter Shikari - 10/10. Support bands were pretty decent too although quite different musically.

Alice Cooper - Despite his age he still has it so it would seem. Tops.

Motley Crue - If you're a fan from long ago and were up the front (and we were right against the stage barrier the whole time) then it was a great show. But if you were somewhere up the back or don't already know the words to all their hits then, well, it was a good show just as long as you weren't too worried about actually hearing any words and just wanted to sing (or scream) along with the band - which is exactly what we did so all good there.

"Molly - Do yourself a favour" album


Not bad, not bad at all

 

[Smurf1976]

Well now Soundwave has collapsed financially. Add that to the various other festivals which have disappeared and Summer in Australia is starting to get a bit quiet really.

A sad outcome but it seems to be inevitable. Every festival that the promoter has got involved with has ceased to exist so it's no surprise that this one is gone too. $25 million or so in debts and 50+ bands plus suppliers etc still unpaid from this year and announced today that it's over, no show for 2016.

RIP Soundwave.

Not bad for a 73 year old. Dare I even say it, absolutely fantastic........

It not only astonished the song writer, Carole King, but brought Obama to tears.

Vale Lemmy.

Lemmy started in the music biz as a roadie for Hendrix. He had a constitution of iron!

Do you know who the pretty girl at the 2:12 mark is. Do you think it is Obama's eldest daughter, Malia?

I don't know for sure but it certainly looks like it could be her daughter.

It's been raining all day so I had plenty of spare time to dig up some old masterpieces, this is one of them, great stuff and I'm listening to it right now.
