On Friday 14th March 2025 in BBC’s Maida Vale Studio 3 a group of 100 or so press and media people were treated the rarest of rare events when half a dozen BBC Radiophonic Workshop ‘originals’, some of whom were there around the turn of the 1960s/70s and had created some of the iconic Dr. Who and Hitchhicker’s Guide to The Galaxy sounds and music to mention just a tiny fraction of their output, performed a 30 minute live set of electronic sounds and music including the above mentioned, using...

Having caught on to Troy Redfern as a crossover artist at Hard Rock festivals like ‘Call Of The Wild’ a few years ago I take every chance I can to see him play. I am not so familiar with Philip Sayce billed as a Blues artist, but I am intrigued hoping that Troy would select a support slot right up his street. I was right and I loved both of their sets.

After much consideration, it is with both sorrow and joy, I announce my decision to take a step back from the grind of the extensive touring lifestyle. Today, Sat, Dec 7th, Sao Paulo will be my final gig with Iron Maiden. I wish the band much success moving forward. I will, however, remain firmly part of the Iron Maiden family working on a variety of projects, my long time managers, Rod Smallwood and Andy Taylor, have in mind for me.

Seeing Finish rock icon Michael Monroe live in London was always going to be a pleasure. Monroe is one of the most consistently exciting acts still touring today, but tonight there is an added treat. He and his band are playing the Hanoi Rocks’ seminal album Two Steps From The Move, from start to finish and in order. Monroe is one of the last authentic rockstars in a world full of posers and imitators. At 62, he still brings the raw energy, charisma, and talent of someone half his age.

As a man in his early 50’s the idea of standing in all weathers watching bands play from a distance with the wind often blowing the sound all over the place doesn’t quite have the appeal that it used to. One of the benefits of Tomorrow’s Ghosts (like the Rebellion Festival that I covered in Blackpool) is that the bands are all playing inside. Yes.

Words: Kahmel FarahaniPhotos: Ryan HildrewWith the explosion of country music in the UK over the last several years still picking up steam, it’s always a pleasure to see a genuine band that not only walks the walk but talks the proverbial talk. If tonight’s performance is anything to go by, Shane Smith And The Saints certainly are the real deal. The five piece band hail from Austin, Texas and that sun bleached country and western sound has bled into their sound.
