THE NIGHT FLIGHT ORCHESTRA interview. Touring Australia next week.

 

It's always great to chat with Björn. This time it's about THE NIGHT FLIGHT ORCHESTRA and their upcoming tour of Australia, visiting Adelaide for the first time with the band. We had a good chat about the new album, jetlag, or the lack of it in the Dreamliners, more bodies on stage, vocal challenges in a less extreme band, and Vegemite. Check it out.

INSOMNIUM / OMNIUM GATHERUM photos – Adelaide

 

I went along to the Lion Arts Factory last Sunday (the 11th) and witnessed an amazing show. I was looking forward to seeing INSOMNIUM for the first time, and I was not disappointed in the slightest. They brought fellow countrymen OMNIUM GATHERUM with them and I must say I was really impressed by them as well.

ROSS THE BOSS photos – Adelaide.

 

Another great night watching ROSS THE BOSS and his band perform. Plenty of fist in the air stuff as the classic MANOWAR album, 'Sign Of The Hammer' was given the treatment and the set filled out with other MANOWAR classics. NIGHT LEGION and HEADBORE completed the bill, and both performed in fine fashion. Overall a great night.

ROSS THE BOSS interview. Touring this week.

 

I had another cool and very relaxed chat with the legend that is ROSS THE BOSS, about many many things, not the least of which was the memories of the early days of MANOWAR, recording 'Sign Of The Hammer', and touring back in the day, and of course the upcoming Australian ROSS THE BOSS tour, playing the afore-mentioned MANOWAR album in full. The tour is almost upon us.
Check it out.

WINGER – Adelaide photos

 

I went along and saw WINGER the other night here in Adelaide and was entertained by a top quality band. It was 5 musicians all at the top of their game. Never thought I'd find myself at a WINGER show, but here we are. SHOTGUN MISTRESS were support and they got the crowd warmed up nicely.

THE HALO EFFECT interview. New album out soon.

 

I had an awesome chat twith Niclas Engelin from THE HALO EFFECT about many things, from the formation of the band, the reaction to the first album, the feeling you have years later realising you're performing on the same stage as one of your early guitar heroes from your earliest concert experience, and of course the upcoming album, 'March Of The Unheard'. Check it out.

BRAVE NU WORLD photos

 

Saturday November 23rd at the Woodshed was the scene for 'BRAVE NU WORLD – A Tribute To Nu-Metal'. A good sized crowd rocked in, and were ready to be entertained, and an entertaining night it was. LIMPIZKIT (featuring the music of Limp Bizkit), then FOLLOW THE LEADER (Korn), and finally FALLEN (Evanescence) played good quality sets and immense fun was had by all.
