Memorial services for iconic MOTÖRHEAD frontman Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister was held at the Rainbow Bar And Grill in West Hollywood, California 1-9-2016.

 

Lemmy, who celebrated his 70th birthday on Christmas Eve (December 24-2016), learned two days later, on December 26, that he was afflicted with an aggressive form of cancer. He died two days later, on December 28 at his home in Los Angeles.

MOTÖRHEADwas revered by both metal and punk fans, and Lemmy was considered an icon for his musical talent and his embodiment of the rock n’ roll lifestyle.

The Rainbow Bar And Grill on L.A.'s Sunset Strip was known as Lemmy's hangout, made it an obvious place for friends and family to say goodbye to the legend.

Playing host to the rescheduled Foo Fighters concert at Wembley (that was cancelled after frontman Dave Grohl broke his leg falling off stage at a show in Gothenburg, Sweden), the National Bowl in Milton Keynes came alive on Sunday, September 6, 2015 with the sound of 65,000 screaming fans. Following sets from rock duo Royal Blood and the eclectic propo-punk icon Iggy Pop, the Foos knew they had to deliver. From the moment the curtain sucked into a black hole vortex to the end of the show, it was obvious it was going to be one hell of a night to remember. Debra, Karl and I had arrived relatively early for the show and, being among the first to enter the MK Bowl, were offered "Inner Pit" passes. Issued on a first-come-first-serve basis, these gave fenced-off access to the stage and were an excellent surprise. We had a great view of the day's action and I was well positioned for photographs. "All My Life" opened the two and a half hour set, with Grohl spending the entire show seated on a most gloriously over-the-top throne, designed by Grohl himself and adorned by guitar necks. It transported the front-man up and down the runway, and was in itself a crowd pleaser! I have wanted to see the Foo Fighters for about two decades - and desperate to do so since "Wasting Light"- and they did not disappoint. A shredding version of "White Limo" alone justified the ticket price, and the rest was a wonderful (and sometimes nostalgic) tour through their back-catalogue. All in all, it was a triumphant, heart-warming singalong set that showed why, for so many, the Foo Fighters have been the soundtrack to the last two decades. Here's the Foo Fighters' set list for the Milton Keynes "Broken Leg" concert.

 

If I was desperate to see the Foo Fighters, I was absolutely aching to see 69 year old rock legend, Iggy Pop. I narrowly missed one of his gigs in Amsterdam at the end of 1978 and, after this initial disappointment, Iggy stayed on my Bucket List through the late-80's in London, the 90's in Prague and the naughties in the UK. When he was in town, I was always travelling, had other commitments or just had bad luck (i.e. the cancellation of the Foo's concert at Wembley in June where Iggy was on the supporting bill). Well, I finally got to see James Newell Osterberg, Jr. in full, topless, action in Milton Keynes on a fine evening in September 2015! Iggy brought his old school punk snarl to the party, prompting mass singalongs to classic tunes, some of which he penned with his old mate David Bowie in Berlin in the 70's. If I'm still as active as Iggy when I'm almost 70, I'll be more than happy! He made fine use of the runway before him, skipping, kicking, twisting and turning as only Iggy can. He took a breather every now and then, but Iggy still has more energy than any new breed act you care to mention. Fucking hell - he's the man that wrote "Lust for Life"! The snot-noses in the audience didn't know what hit them :-) FYI, here's the Iggy Pop's set list for the night.

 

A wonderful, sunny day and balmy evening with my family, and a fine way to celebrate the 32nd anniversary of my first date with my future-wife on September 7, 1983.

The original Wasted Youth, one of the best bands to come out of post punk East London. Formed in the summer of 1979 at the Bridge House in Canning Town. The band rubbed shoulders with the likes of The Psychedelic Furs and The Only Ones, occupying the indie album charts before splitting up in December 1982 on the verge of signing to a major record label.

 

Alternative music website Louderthanwar.com described them as “arguably the greatest ‘lost’ London band of the post-punk years… heavily influenced by the dark narcotic glamour of the Velvets, the Doors and Transformer-era Lou Reed.”

 

After a gap of 40 years the band’s 3 surviving original members reformed for their now legendary gig at the Lexington, Islington in February 2022. Tickets sold out within hours of going on sale.

 

While the revival success may have been bouyed up by a wave of nostalgia from their original fans, the band are keen to move on.

 

To quote their social media feed the band say "Whilst paying respect to and having great love for the ‘old’ Wasted Youth, the ‘new’ Wasted Youth are not a nostalgia act, and are eager to prove that they have something new to offer, both visually and sonically."

 

Ken Scott was and probably remains the major creative force behind the band and since the original line up split has seen his life and career follow a remarkable trajectory. You can hear Ken tell his own story here. foxyradio.com/foxy-radio-112-foxy-radio-on-deal-radio-fea...

 

As a Bridge House regular I saw Wasted Youth many times there and at other venues across London. I got to know Ken briefly as our paths crossed after the band split.

 

Having missed out on the opportunity to see the reformed band at the Lexington, and the Royal Albert Hall in support of the Furs, I finally managed to catch them at “Powerhaus” Camden (aka Dingwalls). I’ve been pestering Ken ever since to let me take his portrait. He finally caved in and we met last Friday for a shoot after I reminded him that he still owed me a favour for helping him decorate his flat in Plaistow circa 1984!

madness frontman suggs yesterday afternoon in soho, still wearing his trademark overcoat. although he had no singing voice and half spoke the lyrics while performing with 80s pop stars madness, suggs was one of the most entertaining front men of the era. never taking themselves too seriously unlike so many of their contempories, a lot of madness songs have stood the test of time very well with strong melodies, witty lyrics and clever arrangements.

i personally believe pop music is now dead as art form. i'd like to be proved wrong in this assertion. it would be nice to hear some good tunes from the younger generation.

"Janne Masalin is a long-time musician, as well as a film and stage artist. Masalin previously served as the frontman and songwriter of the Tundramatis, known for their open-minded and breathtaking music and concerts, as well as the 13-piece horn band Bad Ass Brass Band.

 

In the end, the music also caused the main songwriter and frontman of both bands to mourn. Masalin took a break for a couple of years to update his expression, modernize his sound and learn to present his thoughts as simply and clearly as possible. Kuoseja,

published in February 2023is the flawless second album. The new and more balanced music also relies on powerful electronic production in addition to the reverberant electric guitar, accordion and recognizable vocal sound. The focus is on personally reflecting and empowering lyrics, with which Masalin also steps in front of people more naked than before."

Roy, a frontman of Students Ugly band

Bora Djordjević - legendary and often controversial singer and frontman of the ex-Yugoslvian (now Serbian) group Riblja čorba (Fish Stew) at their unplugged performance in Maribor, Slovenia.

 

All those years of sex, drugs and rock'n'roll (he's aged 63 in this photo) weren't exactly nice to him, but he's still holding up very well and foremost lively. All in all, it was quite a memorable event.

___

 

Not a new photo, but I found it as I was going through the archives to find shots for a new exhibition (my 5th this year - and not the last, I hope - yeah, I know, it's a very extraordinary year in this respect, but I'm not complaining). :)

Playing host to the rescheduled Foo Fighters concert at Wembley (that was cancelled after frontman Dave Grohl broke his leg falling off stage at a show in Gothenburg, Sweden), the National Bowl in Milton Keynes came alive on Sunday, September 6, 2015 with the sound of 65,000 screaming fans. Following sets from rock duo Royal Blood and the eclectic propo-punk icon Iggy Pop, the Foos knew they had to deliver. From the moment the curtain sucked into a black hole vortex to the end of the show, it was obvious it was going to be one hell of a night to remember. Debra, Karl and I had arrived relatively early for the show and, being among the first to enter the MK Bowl, were offered "Inner Pit" passes. Issued on a first-come-first-serve basis, these gave fenced-off access to the stage and were an excellent surprise. We had a great view of the day's action and I was well positioned for photographs. "All My Life" opened the two and a half hour set, with Grohl spending the entire show seated on a most gloriously over-the-top throne, designed by Grohl himself and adorned by guitar necks. It transported the front-man up and down the runway, and was in itself a crowd pleaser! I have wanted to see the Foo Fighters for about two decades - and desperate to do so since "Wasting Light"- and they did not disappoint. A shredding version of "White Limo" alone justified the ticket price, and the rest was a wonderful (and sometimes nostalgic) tour through their back-catalogue. All in all, it was a triumphant, heart-warming singalong set that showed why, for so many, the Foo Fighters have been the soundtrack to the last two decades. Here's the Foo Fighters' set list for the Milton Keynes "Broken Leg" concert.

 

If I was desperate to see the Foo Fighters, I was absolutely aching to see 69 year old rock legend, Iggy Pop. I narrowly missed one of his gigs in Amsterdam at the end of 1978 and, after this initial disappointment, Iggy stayed on my Bucket List through the late-80's in London, the 90's in Prague and the naughties in the UK. When he was in town, I was always travelling, had other commitments or just had bad luck (i.e. the cancellation of the Foo's concert at Wembley in June where Iggy was on the supporting bill). Well, I finally got to see James Newell Osterberg, Jr. in full, topless, action in Milton Keynes on a fine evening in September 2015! Iggy brought his old school punk snarl to the party, prompting mass singalongs to classic tunes, some of which he penned with his old mate David Bowie in Berlin in the 70's. If I'm still as active as Iggy when I'm almost 70, I'll be more than happy! He made fine use of the runway before him, skipping, kicking, twisting and turning as only Iggy can. He took a breather every now and then, but Iggy still has more energy than any new breed act you care to mention. Fucking hell - he's the man that wrote "Lust for Life"! The snot-noses in the audience didn't know what hit them :-) FYI, here's the Iggy Pop's set list for the night.

 

A wonderful, sunny day and balmy evening with my family, and a fine way to celebrate the 32nd anniversary of my first date with my future-wife on September 7, 1983.

Memorial services for iconic MOTÖRHEAD frontman Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister was held at the Rainbow Bar And Grill in West Hollywood, California 1-9-2016.

Philippe Bareille

The Cure are an English rock band formed in Crawley, West Sussex in 1976. The band has experienced several line-up changes, with frontman, vocalist, guitarist and principal songwriter Robert Smith being the only constant member. The Cure first began releasing music in the late 1970s with their debut album Three Imaginary Boys (1979); this, along with several early singles, placed the band as part of the post-punk and New Wave movements that had sprung up in the wake of the punk rock revolution in the United Kingdom. During the early 1980s, the band's increasingly dark and tormented music helped form the gothic rock genre.

 

After the release of Pornography (1982), the band's future was uncertain and Smith was keen to move past the gloomy reputation his band had acquired. With the 1982 single "Let's Go to Bed" Smith began to inject more of a pop sensibility into the band's music. The Cure's popularity increased as the decade wore on, especially in the United States where the songs "Just Like Heaven", "Lovesong" and "Friday I'm in Love" entered the Billboard Hot 100 chart. By the start of the 1990s, The Cure were one of the most popular alternative rock bands in the world. The band is estimated to have sold 27 million albums as of 2004.[1] The Cure have released thirteen studio albums and over thirty singles during the course of their career.

NoGoD has been active in the Japanese music scene (and the European/international as well) for nearly 10 years.

Formed by frontman Dancho in 2005, and have performed with the same members since 2006. They have been active internationally in Asia since 2010, and are now ready to conquer Europe in the same way: through their music.

 

Their core message that “if a person believes in one core element, said element can become their own personal God. The band is striving to become just that.” NoGoD wants to be your God (in the sense of a core element).

 

A few other things the band is famous for are guitarist Kyrie’s special 7 string guitar technique, something a lot of guitarists strive to aspire to themselves.

And vocalist Dancho’s comical interaction with the audience when on stage, adding to the fun of the performance as well as displaying their love for lives and music.

 

Theological and philosophical principles behind the band aside they are of course most famous for their shironuri make-up, visual kei, looks and of course their music itself!

Whilst the band is known for it’s heavy (metal) style sounds, that remain quite catchy to the listener’s ear.

To achieve their own particular style they weaved in influences from J-rock, J-pop and of course the genre they are best known for: metal.

 

What is certain is that this band offers musical attractions to fans of many different genres, not just the visual kei or metal ones. They’re a great band that genuinely wants to build a solid fan base on the European market with their music and excellent instrumental technique.

So if you are visiting Japan Expo on Saturday the 5th or Sunday the 6th of July, make sure to check out NoGoD on their stage!

The times are not out yet, but keep your eye on the program so you don’t miss them!

The iconic mural featuring Joy Division's enigmatic frontman, Ian Curtis, has been repainted by Akse on Manchester's Star and Garter pub. It was originally painted on another building in the Northern Quarter, but was overpainted. By public demand it has been restored, to raise awareness of issues in mental health and suicide prevention.

"Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable", said the Mexican poet and academic, Cesar A. Cruz.

The Northern Quarter, and Ancoats has some of Manchester's finest artworks on its walls and free to view. There is a great walk to be had around this area. I would not describe it as salubrious, but on a dry day, it's well worth the effort. There is a massive spectrum of watering holes to boot. At 70 years old, I feel slightly out of my depth there, but I must admit its an education.

Memorial services for iconic MOTÖRHEAD frontman Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister was held at the Rainbow Bar And Grill in West Hollywood, California 1-9-2016.

 

Lemmy, who celebrated his 70th birthday on Christmas Eve (December 24-2016), learned two days later, on December 26, that he was afflicted with an aggressive form of cancer. He died two days later, on December 28 at his home in Los Angeles.

MOTÖRHEADwas revered by both metal and punk fans, and Lemmy was considered an icon for his musical talent and his embodiment of the rock n’ roll lifestyle.

The Rainbow Bar And Grill on L.A.'s Sunset Strip was known as Lemmy's hangout, made it an obvious place for friends and family to say goodbye to the legend.
