Rum, sodomy and the lash at The Barbican
Rum, sodomy and the lash, originally uploaded by Caroline.Pictures of the Rogue's Gallery show at the Barbican in London last Monday. Not as good as the Dublin ones, circumstances were a little more difficult and restricted.

Look at me Leonard
Leonard Cohen, Amsterdam Westerpark, July 12, 2008 More Leonard Cohen photos by cvodb'You are all covered with sunshine.' Leonard Cohen looks out over the crowd in Westerpark. The setting sun touches the tops of our heads. Or perhaps we struck by the reflection of Cohen's 'golden voice'.It's a deep, ...
French law thwarts My Bloody Valentine
(Bilinda Butcher, My Bloody Valentine, photo by cvodb)
Free ear plugs - the proper inner ear kind - were given out at the door, but it didn't help the band one bit. The French promotors thought My Bloody Valentine's volume was dangerous and their sound techs adjusted accordingly. Singer/guitarist Kevin ...
Hark, the herald angel sings
(Not the Amsterdam show)
The minute Elbow started their show with most of the band members blowing trumpets, I knew we were in for a treat. I've loved Guy Garvey's voice from the moment I first heard Leader of the free world on MTV, but I'd never seen the band live ...
On rewatching Battlestar Galactica

There be Dragons
Dragons, from Bristol, are an ok band, they do give it their all. Wearing shades indoors though... I think only really big rock stars can pull it off. The singer looks a little like Jim Kerr and a lot like one of my colleagues, which was a little weird. Musically ...
Using the Asus EEE
Now that I have had my Asus EEE for a week and have taken it for a test run in the field I think it's time to jot down some thoughts.
The EEE pc is one of the most satisfying buys ever. It weighs nothing. I don't even feel I'm carrying it. ...
Torchwood - S2e07 - Dead Man Walking
I'm sorry, but the first scene made me laugh so hard I couldn't take the rest of the story seriously at all. Because Barrowman running in and shout-acting 'Stop, nobody touches him until I get back, is that clear...'? That wasn't television. That wasn't a musical. That was the local ...
An exercise in terror and music
Reading Matthew's 'premature evaluation' of R.E.M.'s upcoming album Accelerate, I realised I'd never posted my thoughts on the two shows I saw the band do in Dublin last summer. I did write about it on my Dutch music blog, but even fewer people probably read that than visit over here. ...
