Music Reviews - The Chase, GST Cardinals and The Blackouts at the Under The Influence Xmas Show at The Adelphi - Sat 17th Dec 05 By Michelle Dee The Chase gallery by Michelle Honess
	Under The Influence celebrated its Christmas bash down at the Adelphi with a line up of rather new Hull bands them being, GST Cardinals, The Blackouts and The Chase. The billed act, !Forward Russia! sadly cancelled so promoter Dean Shakespeare had to make a few fast decisions to insure the show went on.

Music Reviews - Neville Staples, Quartermain and The Bonnitts at The Ringside, Monday 19th December 05 By Dick Spring Photos By Mo
	Monday December 19th 2005 is a date that could go down in the musical history of the city, for that was the day Neville Staples, original rudeboy singer of the legendary Two Tone band The Specials, and co founder of Fun Boy Three, made a triumphant return to Hull. Opening up were Hull favourites The Bonnitts who, though beset by a few technical problems, marched on through Read more...

Music Reviews - The Shine at The Top House Pub - 6th November 05 By DJ Chris Plant (www.djchrisplant.co.uk)
	Firstly, let me tell you a little about the band... The Shine are a top local cover band playing hits from the 60s to material from the present day. The band have been playing in Hull's top venues for the last three years, including The Springhead, Hull University and The Mainbrace to name but a few.

Music Reviews - Tuesday 15th November - She Likes Parties at The Sesh By Becky
	Over the last few weeks I have watched She Likes Parties come forward in leaps and bounds. Having gained a reputation from Sally Likes Parties (vocals) performing a capella at Staks cafe bar, acoustic sets at Linnet, Staks and Adelphi and drunken spur of the moment sets in the back room of Saturday night Silhouettes, the band had a lot to live up to at their debut gig as a full Read more...

Music Reviews - Thursday 15th December 05 - Band Wars at The Polar Bear By Martin Parnell
	The I was actualy there, and was actually listening to all the bands, whilst not being drunk, band wars review! Martin here, soundman, musician, songwriter, artist, and independent judge throughout the competition! Well here I will be giving my overview of this competition which saw lots of great bands and lots of great gigs, which I had the privilege of doing Read more...

Music Reviews - Thursday 15th December 05 - Band Wars at The Polar Bear By Michelle Dee
	Band Wars 2005 Result is an Insult to Hull Music. You know there's something amiss when you have to explain the presence of your bar staff in one of the bands to reach the final four. The competition was held at Polar Bear, the prize was a £1000. The four bands in the final were Jilly hates Willy Konscience, The Cyclones and The Landaus. There really was no contest or shouldn't have been... Read more...

Music Reviews - Bob Geldof at Hull City Hall - Thursday 1st December 05 By Steve Rudd
	December 1st 2005, in my mind, has gone down in history as an unforgettable day. It was the day I met my biggest hero. And whoever said that to meet your hero is usually a disappointing affair was wrong in this instance, and since meeting Bob Geldof (twice in one night!), I'm filled with even more respect for the man ... the god. I never ever thought I'd get the chance to meet Read more...

Music Reviews - 3rd November - Mystery Jets at The Adelphi By Emily
	Thursday 3rd was Mystery Jets' third visit to the Adelphi - their previous gig, earlier in the year - and proves that they are only getting bigger and better. This time around the venue was a lot fuller; buzzing with people curious as to whether the Mystery Jets live up to the hype. Since the Jets' last Hull appearance, the band has gained coverage through the NME Read more...

Music Reviews - Kill Surf City By Michelle Dee
	The fresh five-piece from Hull have fast become the band name to drop in any discerning musos discourse. Recent months has seen them leapfrogging the opposition and quickly reaching and surpassing a few significant milestones. The band had barely been together two months when they headlined at the Sesh (see review thisisull.com ) Linnet and Lark. This was quickly followed by more Read more...

Music Reviews - Night Clubs - Friday 2nd December - Regis at Pure Techno at Rhythm Room By Michelle Dee
	Friday night in the icy rain I flagged down a cab to town. My preferred late night spot tonight was Rhythm Room on Baker Street for a heady night of uplifting beats. Someone once enquired, What is this rude, lewd, lascivious junk called techno? What, indeed. One way of describing it is like a sonic sunburst Read more...

Music Reviews - 13th October 05 - thisisUll.com Keeping It Peel at The Silhouette By Joe Hakim Photographs by Darren Rogers and Mo
	Whenever a musical icon dies, there always follows a period where their name and image is turned into a commodity. The best current example would be John Lennon. The celebration of what would have been his sixty-fifth birthday and the impending twentieth anniversary of his death has sent the record companies and the various conglomerates that Read more...

Music Reviews - Scarborough Beached Festival 2005 Sunday By Michelle Dee Photos by Roland Standaert and Michelle Dee
	Sand beneath my feet, sounds of activity on the stage, blue skies overhead, sun blazing: a strange but rather pleasant surrounding for a gig. Amaya Huntly and Jon Neeves had the unenviable task to open the show on Sunday. An acoustician and Keyboard duo; the highlight of their set was the Credence Clearwater Revival cover where they proved with a strong number they can do a Read more...
