Here We Go Again...

Here we go again, as David Coverdale once sang in his famously tight leopard sking trousers - there's literally bucketloads of gigs on this year and with key events now firmly established within the limelight of a NME obsessed Britain, guitar music never had it so good...or did it ? Is this the end - or the beginning of the end - after the frantric media fenzy over the Boomtown Rats - oops - I mean Razorlight - "have garage (attached to my semi), will travel (after reverse coming my hair)" is the catchword amongst those ready to leap barefaced bottom outwards, right into the gravy train. Watch out for acts like Matteo Scumaci - you'll see what I mean - desparate ? Keep watching......but amongst all of this there are some real gems coming through - best of all though, the most exciting things at this end are that the most innovative and original bands haven't really been heard of yet - although to give you a clue we've already written about them...the future is bright - but for now lets see what the winter signings bring us...
