Collecting Butterflies on a Sunday

The sound of “We are the Mods” from a bouncing crowd was back at the Lemon Tree on Mayday Sunday as From The Jam rolled back the years for many of us. Here’s Still Burnings review and pictures of the gig.

Shoot to Thrill

A roadtrip to Peterhead to catch His Name Is Codeine at the latest Dangerous Club event. With an album due out soon you’d do well to catch them live if you can. Also on the bill was Chaser and Emma Hogarth. Pics from the gig can be found here.
