Mid September madness

September is certainly a wash with madness, in the sense that I’ve noted Christmas items in some shops already…… Blimey, has summer shut up shop then, in commercial land. I don’t see how this is right and proper, as the sun has shone again for another extended period, with beautiful sunshine all the week; par a little rain…..and just in time to help us Commemorate Battle Of Britain Sunday across the UK…

Twofers today came from the Australian band, the Temper Trap, we played – ‘I need your Love’, preceded by ‘Trembling hands’ (two tracks from one artist or band = Twofers)

We also reminded ourself of the great debut single released by Talk Talk, Called ‘Talk Talk, as there is indeed a delightful tributing type covers album out at the moment called…’SPIRIT OF TALK TALK’

Michael McIntyre, at The O2 – 26th – 30th Sept 2012 • O2 Arena

My music pick for this week;
Tue 18 Sep Matchbox Twenty – O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire, London

One of the most successful American rock bands of all time originate from Florida and are enormously popular in the United States and abroad.

Wed 19 Sep The Futureheads – O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire, London
Provincial indie rock band from Sunderland come with angular punk riffs and socially aware lyrics often ignored in a largely decadent music scene.

Sat 22 Sep Biffy Clyro – Roundhouse, London
Cult rock trio Biffy Clyro formed in the mid 1990s as teenagers. Slowly building a fan base across the UK with their angst post-grunge sound, it was only following the release of their fourth album ‘Puzzle’ in 2007 that they achieved mainstream success.

The Saturday Breakfast show – ‘be involved!!!’…If you are in a Band/Artist local to Brentwood & Billericay or a locally based Comic, then I’d love to hear from you!
