      Sometimes it's nice to know you are going to be thoroughly entertained and enjoy your saturday night out, this was the case when i went and watched a contemporary cover band called ... SHAMELESS. I watched them at Bar 362 in StKilda and pleased to say it was only a short stagger to home but i would happily travelled ...

It was the beginnings of a band called 'Blondie' and their charismatic lead singer Debra Harry instantly captured everyones imagination. Young boys dreamt about her, young girls wanted to be her! Her impact on the music scene was instant and mesmerizing as ...

      Well over the last decade or so the live music scene in melbourne has slowly been disappearing without any hope of a revival, just think St Kilda lost the Palace and then nothing was rebuilt when apparently there was going to be a vnue with three or so different music bars and nightclubs. Then there was the implementation ...

      It's amazing to think for the twenty plus years Melbournes best keep secret has stayed under the live music radar because for those in the know StKilda's Esplanade Hotel on the upper esplanade on the way to fiztroy st has been host to one of the most admired guitarist's in not only melbourne but all of australia its self! ...

      If i had to describe this terrific fender amplifier in one word it would be ‘WOW’ It really is that good for the price. The technology implemented into this Fender Mustang Amplifier is simply out of this world! Iwent to the local guitar to order a power supply for what was a ten year old 15watt ‘companion’ amp which i ...

      If your like and prefer to see music played live as well as listen to it live you will perhaps think less of the duos that get out there and position themselves in the corner of the pub on a friday night. They only have a 'live guitar' and perhaps a singer and that it is the whole show. It's very easy to ...

      Sometimes there is never enough hours in the day and you just don't get to either view or listen to all your favourite stuff, this Dvd is a good example of that. I have not played it for a while due to my laptop having crappy speakers and it is only recently that i have done something about it (bluetooth speaker ...

      The Great Rock N Roll Swindle is a tongue in cheek look at the rise and fall of the Sex Pistols and how they managed to rock the establishment back in the 1970's with their new brand of 'music' ...

      It's official .....well according to Rock Music Magazine Rolling Stone the best guitarist is Jimi Hendrix. I must admit that i have no problem with this choice but i am well aware the 'Jimi Vote' is also a cultural thing when you consider his face is still plastered over so many t-shirts around the world. ...

      The internet is about to change, big time! But first a quick lesson on how some things work, first off a website address is called a domain name and a good domain is worth money due to it's perceived marketing value. Some folk will just type in music.com without even do a google search so that makes .com worth money. Ok ...

      In a great move Fender has decided to release some fantastic designs and crossbreeds from the days when people used to swap and change parts as necessity dictated. I love the retro colors and look of these new guitars that look like they belong in a guitar museum. There is a lot of 'yester Year Detailing' on these ...

      One of the most iconic guitars ever built was the Fender Stratocaster and after coming across an interesting video on Youtube i thought it may be worth posting a few fender related videos up.

      There was a time not so long ago when nearly every local pub had a band playing on a Saturday and perhaps even Friday night but with the arrival of the pokie machines in Melbourne those good old days disappeared as the pubs were given a choice.
