Winding down for Christmas with a bit of a laid back show since I’m trying to figure out what I can fit into my bags and stay within the weight limits! Some acoustic tracks from bands more used to distortion pedals and wailing guitar solos, and a few from bands producing some awesome acoustic/indie rock all the time!

A little bit of a short show as I’ve been so caught up getting everything sorted for the US embassy interview yesterday - everything seems in order though, so just waiting for a courier to deliver the actual visa now! Very relieved it’s pretty much over, so here’s 3 tracks to help me unwind!

Remind Me, by Fissure (Fissure on MySpace)
Paper or Plastic, by Handhoney (Handhoney on CD Baby)

Fighting through a banging headache, but still full of awesome music! No-one’s been brave enough to send in a gig review over the past week - surely someone has been out to see a band live and wants to let us know what it was like?!

No bands that have recently changed their name in this show (or if they have have done, I haven’t noticed!), just some very loud rock music. This is definately not a laid back show to put your feet up and listen to! New idea over the next couple of weeks - if you get out to see a band live (and if not, go make the effort!), send me a quick e-mail with your gig review, and I’ll start getting them read out.

Back to normal this week for me, with Ewan having the honour of doing 3 shows in a week! For all our American listeners, hope you enjoy Thanksgiving and don’t eat too much - remember, Christmas is only 4/5 weeks away and you need to save space for that! Also talk just a little bit about me for the first time in this show, with what my plans for Christmas will be…

After a fairly calm + indie feel with Monday’s show and Ewan continuing it with TPN Rock Again on Tuesday, time to rock things up a little towards the end of the week! Hope it’s getting you in the mood for getting out there checking some bands live yourself, let me know how it goes!
