I’m gutted to have missed Green Man Festival for the first time since 2003, and looking over the reviews I’m seething with jealousy for everyone who attended! Turns out John Grant and Lone Wolf were there spreading their musical magic…
…at least I can catch Lone Wolf supporting Philip Selway at Bush Hall next month. Killer lineup! And the mighty JG will be rockin the Roundhouse in November, so every cloud…
Brass player? Bored of the safety and assurance that when you play you’re unlikely to burn your parents house down? Then look no further, for it’s time to inject a dose of excitement into your practice sessions…

That’s right! A sandwich in a can! A CANDWICH!!!
Forget the apocalypse, I don’t need an excuse to gorge on these beauties! Nom Nom Nom
In a world where music video games (think SingStar, Rock Band, DJ Hero etc) have become for some a primary source of consuming music, I guess this is a natural next step… let me introduce you to “The Building” by Jesse Stiles, and its accompanying music video game, “Inside A Dead Skyscraper”
“An alternative approach to the musical game form would link the independent music and independent games scenes. Indie music games could promote unknown bands to the multi-tasking, hyperactive, interaction-addicted new generations”
