Music Reviews 13th October 06 The Automatic at Asylum Hull University By Alison and Hannah
	Friday 13th October, unlucky for some, but not for The Automatic fans who were treated to a flamboyant 50 minute set from the Cardiff born quartet. Support was from two bands, one of which was so crap we can't even remember the name. The other of which was amazing - Mumm-ra ... Don't even ask me what the name means- it's a Topcat character Read more...

Music Reviews - 9th 0ctober Monday Nex Above It All and The Clauberg Opera at Ringside Hull By Michelle Dee Photographs by Kate Langan
	Having only seen The Clauberg Opera previously in the darkened confines of the Adelphi I found tonight's setting rather strange. The absence of light was replaced with dancing coloured spots and a disco ball. One of the reasons Clauberg took this gig apart from their desire to pick up as many gigs as possible was to try out a shortened version of their set. Read more...

Music Reviews - Thursday 7th September 06 - Dirty Rotten White Boys at Staks, Beverley Road By Michelle Dee Photographs by Andrew Lord and Dennis Low
	An air of something between curiosity and anticipation fills the Staks Café Bar. Tonight is the last of these popular Thursday nights of acoustic artists and bands and Alex Haribo Hunter's new band Dirty Rotten White Boys second ever gig. They reflect the ethos that everybody wants to be in a band these days and embrace the rock n roll lifestyle. Read more...

Music Reviews - Thursday 31st August 06 - Zhain at Vox at The Vale, Glasgow By Tony
	What is it about a band that makes you want to see them again and again and even buy their CD? If a stock answer existed every band would subscribe to the formula and be a success. Luckily, different answers exist making rock'n'roll so diverse and exciting. It is an amalgam of so many things, music, image, personality, projection and Read more...

Music Reviews - Sunday 1st October 06 - Shindigg - Soup at Certificate 18, York By Lyle Tuttle Photographs By Kate Langan
	By the time the portentous quip, If I keep myself low I'll never drop is delivered, David Tomlinson is half naked. Fluorescent lighting is unable to penetrate the shadow the brim of an army surplus hat has cast over his eyes, and assuming that those eyes have again glassed over as they had done by this time last week at The Adelphi, we notice that there exists a new Read more...

Music Reviews - 2nd October 06 - Soho Dolls Paparazzi Whore and Dance Bastards (debut) at Asylum Hull University By Michelle Dee Photographs by Kate Langan
	After hearing on the grapevine about new girls, Dance Bastards and also watching the cutting edge video created on a shoe string I was looking forward to their debut gig. I had checked them out for a few weeks on myspace -watched that stark video a good few times- and had the song Suckerrr firmly implanted in my head. As the girls take Read more...

Music Reviews - 25th September 06 Sleepers Acoustic Night With AfterGlow By Michelle Dee
	I just spent a very enjoyable evening in the pub Sleepers on Newland Avenue; just the other side of the railway bridge. First of all I drank a pint of Caffreys Cold. Now any connoisseur will know how good it is to start a night with a Caffreys. The cold just makes it that little bit better. Next I believe was the wheat based beer similar to Hoegaarden. Read more...

Music Reviews - Wednesday 27th September 06 - Kill Surf City The Holy Orders and The Neat at The Lamp By Michelle Dee Photos By Mo
	After a hop, skip and a jump I arrive at the Lamp with Dave lead singer of Kill Surf City. Sound checks are under way in the newly refurbished performance space and I leave him and the band to deal with the technical issues. I take this opportunity to do a brief interview with new band The Neat. Having seen the post punk outfit supporting The Dirty Dreamers Read more...

Music Reviews - Sunday 10th September 06 - Fonda 500 at The Mela Festival at Pearson Park By Becky Martin Photographs by Kate Langan
	As we slowly made our way to Pearson Park dragging our tired limbs behind us from a drunken night at Spiders, we emerge in the middle of the Hull Mela 06, a celebration of Hull's cultural diversity and acceptance of an alternative lifestyle, with its catchphrase of bring nothing but an open mind. The grassroots-style venue is a huge mixing pot of different cultures, foods, Read more...

Music Reviews - Stop It You're Killing Me, Monkey Boy and Freaks Union at The Adelphi By Becky Martin Photographs by Kate Langan
	The crowd's full of teeny-bopper emos and hardcore metal fans tonight in a glorious mixture of piercings, tattoos and spiky mohicans, as Stop It You're Killing Me kick off the rock night with their own brand of heavy guitars, energetic drums, and screechy vocals. The hot female bass player weaves in her own soft vocals towards the end of their set earning them a great reception Read more...

Music Reviews - 6th September 06 The Cherry Cobb Cartel at Durty Nellies By Michelle Dee
	So here's the set up you take an old Irish pub introduce a few musicians who jam their way through popular covers. Hits from Chuck Berry to U2, The Beatles to The Eagles with perhaps a few soul standards thrown in for good measure. This blend of talent and refreshment paves the way to a relaxed evening of fun socialising. Read more...

Music Reviews - Thursday 17th August 06 - The Tommys and Garden Gang at The Lamp By Becky Martin Photographs By Kate Langan
	The set couldn't have been more varied as Lamp proudly presents Garden Gang and The Tommys, one high energy glam punk rock fest, and the other contemporary girl rock that'll knock your socks off! German born band Garden Gang kick off their set with a mixture of influences including American 50's rock'n'roll, 70's punk and the new wave Read more...

Music Reviews - 22nd September 06 - Tonik The Shine and AfterGlow at The New Adelphi Club By Michelle Dee Photos By Mo
	Tonight is a night for Cilla to have a blow out; god knows she of all people deserves one. We arrive in a very wet Adelphi car park where great puddles make the footing precarious and more than one person ended up ankle deep in cold, muddy water. Perhaps some kindly building contractor might dump half a ton of aggregate on the car park next time they pass. Read more...

Music Reviews - Thursday 21st September 06 - Freaks Union 10th Anniversary Show with Monkey Boy and Stop It You're Killing Me at The Adelphi By Michelle Dee Photos By Mo
	Lads sporting fine Mohican hair do's standing tall, ladies in their tightest t-shirts, make up done just so. These are the punk kids piling in to the Adelphi during a heat wave. Tonight the celebrated punk band Freaks Union are putting on a special show to commemorate ten years in the business; ten good years as front man Jimbo proudly announced. Read more...

Music Reviews - 19th September 06 - Paul The Girl and Matt Edible at the New Adelphi By Michelle Dee
	Its blisteringly hot the air cons knackered there are young louts on stage pretending to be bad ass gangstas from da Bronx with little or nothing to say. They go on about being open to ideas, accepting everyone for what they are and being free doing what you do, but it is all bullshit. Judging by the racket they were making in the corridor whilst the visiting Read more...

Music Reviews - Sunday 17th September Aberfeldy Catherine Feeny and The Rocky Nest New Adelphi Club By Michelle Dee
	What a delightful night of live music; once again I found myself down at the Adelphi Club in Hull. A night with a strong billing that attracted a fine knowledgeable crowd. Aberfeldy the Scottish folk/electro five piece on their third visit to Hull not counting the two nights supporting The Beautiful South at the City Hall in July I arrived just after eight Read more...

Music Reviews - Leeds Festival - Part One By Joe Hakim Photos By Stuart Mountain and Mak
	My mates decided to throw a party the night before we were due to set off for Leeds. I initially thought about taking it easy, but the alcohol began to flow and before I knew it I was as pissed as a fart. Some of my mates went outside to have a game of football in the street, so I necked a half and sat on the windowsill and watched them play. Unfortunately, Read more...
