http://itsaxxxxthing.blogspot.com/2015/07/static-rockbelturmagic-trik-hrc-glasgow.html
Thursday, 9 July 2015. Static Rock/Beltur/Magic Trik – HRC Glasgow – 08/07/15. Static Rock/Beltur/Magic Trik – HRC Glasgow – 08/07/15. With a tour of some cities down south already arranged - and their debut single and video Straw Dog newly released - the very young Glaswegian band Magic Trik are undoubtedly looking to hit the ground running and shake things up a little. Beltur on the other hand are a few steps ahead of Magic Trik. With an eye on writing and performing songs that would be comfortable res...

Wednesday, 26 November 2014. The Jesus and Mary Chain - Barrowlands 23/11/14 (Glasgow). The nights of every riot being a mini revolution may well have been left behind by The Jesus and Mary Chain, and similarly the late appearances and early finishes as a statement of truculent defiance are gone to, but there is no denying that the power has not diminished in the near thirty years since they gave the world psychocandy. Very often you never really know if you should swoon or duck when in their presence.

Monday, 19 January 2015. Christie Connor-Vernal and Roadway - NHC Music - 17/01/14. So far the NHC should be four instore acoustic shows into 2015, but there seems to be a curse on the Sundays. Had to pull out due to ill health and this week it was the turn of AWOL with an injury, but never fear as both shows, and a set from Arno Blok, will all be sorted out for the future. Meanwhile what can be said about the Saturday nights though? In fact it’s actually difficult to convey how good this show was. We ca...

Wednesday, 25 February 2015. Moonage Daydream/Starman/Soul Love - Milky Edwards and The Chamberlings. Thanks to Jimbo for making my day brighter by sharing this. Apparently it is a fake. No one knows yet where it surfaced from or who is doing it, but when fakes are as good as this then who needs the real thing. Posted by It's a * * thing. Links to this post. Milky Edwards and The Chamberlings. McCann - 21/02/15 - NHC Music (Glasgow). Even with the full flow of them being partially contained by operating ...

ITAXXXXTHING BLOG: The veteran curmudgeon guide to festivals.
http://itsaxxxxthing.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-veteran-curmudgeon-guide-to.html
Sunday, 26 July 2015. The veteran curmudgeon guide to festivals. A light hearted consideration of what has went wrong). 1) Gazebo glampers aka Your land is our land. Half an hour after putting the tent up. And this monstrosity appears. That, the blue one, a small one, a gazebo out of sight and more. Space sectioned off for three adults and two kids. The modern festival goer requires a home from home apparently. Or a bigger home from home. No longer will a single sleeping bag and tent suffice. With the ti...

ITAXXXXTHING BLOG: Wickerman 2015 - Part One
http://itsaxxxxthing.blogspot.com/2015/07/wickerman-2015-part-one.html
Monday, 27 July 2015. Wickerman 2015 - Part One. Festivals by their nature are hit and miss with the entertainment provided. Not because they are apt to look to scrape the bottom of the barrel, but simply because a crowd of thousands of people with different tastes can’t be kept happy all the time. For every stage that is visited that provides the hit there will always be one that delivers a personal miss. This however wasn't my experience of Wickerman 2015 though. It’s not possible. If there was any cri...

ITAXXXXTHING BLOG: Black and White Boy – The Avenue
http://itsaxxxxthing.blogspot.com/2015/06/black-and-white-boy-avenue.html
Wednesday, 3 June 2015. Black and White Boy – The Avenue. Carefully looking to strike a balance between making music recognisably your own and not falling into a repetitive rut must be the curse of the musician, but Andrew Nicol - aka Black and White Boy - is still on that high wire and moving incrementally forward. It’s very mature fare and written to appeal to a more contemplative audience. That being the case there is the possibility that some may miss out on the magic that lies therein if they are lo...

Tuesday, 31 March 2015. A Hard Rain at Sunshine Corner - Jon Zip featuring Mescaleros Pablo and Smiley. The future is certainly unwritten. Jon Zip can attest to that as I doubt in 2002 when the word came in of Strummers demise that he would have considered that all these years later he would be releasing an ep with the support of a couple of Mescaleros. And yet here he is doing both, and with suitable agit-folk aplomb. Just when people in some quarters were considering that there is nothing musical out t...
