It would be an understatement to say I had a lovely time at Judas Priest & Alice Cooper last night 🤘

All of the emotion among the heavy metal community in attendance with multiple Ozzy tributes throughout the evening 💜

Even in spite of the heat (and BOY it was HOT), 2000 Trees once again delivered as the best festival the UK had to offer 🌲💚

Will post more in the coming days, but so many amazing memories made seeing superb bands and artists with some top mates across the four days 🤘

This time tomorrow, I'll be cracking open a can of cider in my favourite festival field with my mates getting ready to watch some amazing bands 🍻😎

Happy 2000 Trees eve to all who celebrate 🤘
We’ve given our iconic 2000trees sign a bit of a spruce up this year. Everyone is welcome at TREES 💚🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Can’t wait to see all your pics with this beast!!

The best time had at the biggest ever Iron Maiden UK headline show last night.

A packed out stadium on home turf in East London. The greatest to ever do it shining in their twilight years 🤘

Rare that I go to Southampton for a gig as will never make the last train home!

Stayed the night to make sure I could see Unto Others play a headline show on the touring cycle for my favourite album of 2024, "Never, Neverland". A special album from a special band 🤘🩷

Outbreak London yesterday was an absolutely lovely day with a top crew.

A day of great hardcore music, topped off by a stunning set from Turnstile a week on from the release of "NEVER ENOUGH". A truly special band

The best time had in Prague last weekend seeing Iron Maiden on their 50th Anniversary tour.

If you're off to see any of their shows this summer, you're in for a treat 🤘

Heavy Metal. Iron Maiden. The community that it brings together. The fucking best.

Go see your favourite bands abroad - especially at Stadiums - if you can, because it kicks the ass out of the UK experience AND its a holiday

Bring on the Prague gig tomorrow 🤘
May 30, 2025 at 5:41 PM
The hype for the upcoming weekend travelling to see my favourite band again is reaching fever pitch

Get me to Prague
Get me in Eddie's Dive Bar
Get me to Letnany for IRON FUCKING MAIDEN pronto 🤘

I've harped on already about how much I love "Are We All Angels", but live those songs hit the spot just as much.

Scowl truly are a special band 🦋💚
May 9, 2025 at 11:01 PM
As debut headline shows go, that was a bit special

@weareunpeople.bsky.social are a band that deserve your attention if you love alternative music. From the riffs, to the massive catchy choruses, they just have IT 🤘

Cannot wait to see them again at @2000trees.bsky.social this summer 👤👤👤👤

With the amount of gigs I've been to and have coming up, the biggest of the year has slowly crept up on me. 24 days until I'm in Prague ahead of celebrating 50 years of my favourite band!

Iron Maiden's gonna get you. No matter how far 🤘

There are times when you build up the idea of an album and how good it will be in your mind and it doesn't deliver.

I am happy to confirm this is not one of those times. The new record from Scowl is simply sublime. Go listen to "Are We All Angels" as soon as you can today 🤘💚

Friday was awesome, but tonight was proof that Knocked Loose will continue to crush it on bigger stages for many years to come 🤘

Outbreak London can't come soon enough to see them and so many other bands I love again.

Special night at Underworld seeing Knocked Loose tear the room apart before their *slightly* bigger show at Brixton Academy on Monday

Great time spent with @groundhoppercam.bsky.social & @tomhylands.bsky.social - shoutout to the former for sorting my ticket for the show 🤘

Berlin Day 4: My run of seeing wins at Alte Försterei came to an end yesterday. Not the result that Union wanted or needed, but always the matchday experience down in Kopenick.

Eisern Union ❤️🤘

Berlin Day 3: Great afternoon ticking off Ground 165 at Lichtenberg 47, some DDR sightseeing and bar hopping in Friedrichshain with @sussexstratton.bsky.social

Been back in my favourite city for a few days. One of those places where the vibe is one I love.

Berlin, you never disappoint ❤️🇩🇪

Getting back into the swing of writing live reviews again in 2025 after a few years.

Kicked things off with last weekend's wonderful celebration of underground metal rising to bigger stages - Green Lung & Unto Others at Kentish Town 💚💜

Go give it a read and listen to those awesome bands 🤘
LIVE: "The sheer quality and captivating nature of their song-craft has set them on a path to play stages much bigger than tonight’s gathering."

Green Lung showed us how it was done at O2 Forum Kentish Town.
