It made a nice change to go to a gig and not get battered about on the way there by the deluge of storms we’ve faced over the last few weeks. It was a bloody cold night, but Editors are the perfect band to get the crowd moving enough to forget about the weather. […]

Catfish & the Bottlemen @ Birmingham Arena 4 November 2019
I have to admit that having seen Catfish play twice before (at the Institute and then the Academy in 2015 in between the first and second albums), I kind of stopped taking notice; not deliberately just by accident. I didn’t quite realise that after the second and third albums, their small and passionate audience had […]
The Eagles @ Birmingham Arena, 29 June 2019
There is a special feeling you get when you go to see a band you have been listening to, and for the most part, loving, for over forty years. Sometimes it isn’t the band itself you love, it is the songs, and where and when the songs entered your life. It is how these songs […]
Panic At The Disco @ Arena Birmingham, 26th March 2019
It’s become increasingly common over the past couple of years to turn up to various arena concerts and be greeted by the fact that it’s not actually an arena show at all. From black drapes hiding various barren seating blocks or the stage being moved halfway across the arena to make you forget there’s the […]
Sharon Van Etten @ The Mill, 22nd March 2019
An evening of firsts: my first chance to witness Sharon Van Etten in a live setting, and my first visit to The Mill venue. A relatively new addition to the city’s growing list of venues, nestled in the heart of Digbeth’s post-industrial landscape. Both introductory encounters manage to yield one hell of a blissful union […]
The World of Hans Zimmer @ Birmingham Arena, 21 March 2019
It’s not often you get the opportunity to experience an evening packed with live film scores from an award-winning composer who can boast their own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, but if the chance should ever come along, do not miss it. Birmingham Arena laid host to The World of Hans Zimmer and […]
Nile Rodgers and CHIC @ Arena Birmingham, 16 December 2018
Having sold more than 500 million records in his time, there are few musicians on the planet to have achieved quite as much as funk and soul superstar Nile Rodgers. From David Bowie to Madonna and Diana Ross to Lady Gaga, he has worked with some of the greatest artists of all time to churn […]
The Four Tops + The Temptations + Tavares @ Arena Birmingham, 22nd November 2018
A pre December Winter chill’s hit the air but that’s not going to stop a couple thousand Brummies from plunging into The Arena, primed and ready to jive and high kick to the Monarchs of Motown. As a Millennial I’m used to swinging my arms around to 135 bpm in a nonchalant way so it […]
