This week it’s been great to see some new faces getting involved straight away and adding loads of great content – turntothesky, BrunoMac and KCity65 – thanks for getting stuck in!

Reviews

1) Gumgum2804 – 9
2) BrunoMac – 9
3) KillTheRobotz – 6

Gumgum2804 has continued to add a bunch of really readable reviews, covering performances from Foals, Mark Ronson and Eagles of Death Metal.

BrunoMac shares some of his experiences of seeing The Cure

“So good that I didn’t mind getting a nosebleed in the middle. If you’re going to have gore dripping down your mouth then it might as well be at a Cure gig and, since they played for over three hours, it didn’t matter that I spent 20 mins with my head tilted back (possibly freaking out the folks behind us).”

…and KillTheRobotz shares a great review of Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn Manson explaining how the “controversial” performance went down:

“Norman Oklahoma is not the place you’d expect to see Marilyn Manson and NIN – the bible belt is very conservative and restrictive to the point of being oppressive [...] this generated so much interest it prompted throngs of ticketless religious people to show up in the parking lot just to see the spectacle, some held picket signs! Never seen that before.”

Photos

1) ghbradshaw – 196
2) turntothesky – 139
3) KCity65 – 99

ghbradshaw continues to lead the way on the photo front, this week sharing shots of Fields, Zutons, and Radiohead.
