Music Reviews - Saturday 16th July 05 - Doing Hull a Favour - Silhouette Club By Joe Hakim
	So I'm walking down Beverley Road, and as I'm walking this car stops at the lights and a guy hangs it head out of the window and shouts across to me, "Ey, mate...yeah you!" I try to ignore him, but seeing as I'm the only person on the street, there's no doubt in my mind that he's talking to me. Shit... "I think yer've dropped summat, mate," he yells. Read more...

Music Reviews - Tuesday 19th July - Killer of Saints at Fibbers, York By Tom Law
	I love going to Fibbers. I still have awesome memories of the last time we made the trip to York to see 36 CrazyFists ... quite possibly the best gig I have ever been to. So I couldn't have been looking forward to this anymore unless I was dragging the Pope along for a night out. Killer of Saints made their way onto the caged stage Read more...

Music Reviews - Hollywood and Mantra at Ringside By Emily
	As I arrived at the Ringside, I noticed that the venue seemed quiet and fairly empty. However, the turnout was good considering that the gig was promoted solely through the bands websites and by word of mouth. As Mantra dragged through a tight set of Pantera style metal; consisting of heavy riffs and memorable choruses, their confidence and stage presence grew Read more...

Music Reviews - Saturday 4th June 05 - SideWinder, Mr Mojo, The Vultures, The Cardinals at the New Adelphi By Julia Grant
	Unfortunately I arrived late to find that I'd missed the first band of the night, The Cardinals. I was told that it had been their debut gig. No doubt I'll get another chance to catch them somewhere soon. Having already seen The Vultures play once before, I thought I knew more or less what to expect. It turns out that I can't have paid that much attention to them on that first occasion. Read more...

Music Reviews - Tuesday 12th July 05 - The Paddingtons Single Release at Ringside and Signing at HMV By Joe Hakim Photos by Darren Rogers
	I'm not quite ready for the sun when I step into it, and if I'm being honest about it I still haven't recovered from the weekend. I spent it in Bridlington, trying to devise ways to sneak into the Kings of Leon gig. At the last minute I rolled up to the door with a friend who employed some kind of Jedi mind-trick. It was a brain bending trick, and needless to say, I got fuckin' smashed in celebration. Read more...
