Sunday Mass came late yesterday in Sydney, as the ever faithful braved the wild winter weather and packed out the Metro Theatre to get some more of that Tea Party divinity. The popularity and loyalty towards this phenomenal band just doesn’t waiver after all these decades, and we are always spoiled when Australia’s favourite adopted sons decide to entertain us …

Sydney was in desperate need of some sizzling on Friday night. As we battled through some freezing winter temperatures, who better than the wonderfully talented Mr Billy Ocean, to not only help us defrost, but to bring us a party mixed with dance, romance and funk. I will confess now, as a youngin’, I would obsess over ‘Caribbean Queen’. Anyone who …

What a night of brilliant music!  It’s so difficult to remember which Bryan Ferry/Roxy Music song I ever heard first when a young thing. Was it the covers I used to hear at various functions in the 80’s? Or the ‘Let’s Stick Together‘ music clip after MTV hit our TV screens? Or was it on the radio? Ferry and Roxy …

How do you describe a man like Dee Snider? Unique and rightly outspoken? A multi-talented metal legend who plays by his own rules and still continues to set the bar? Well, I can add, one of the best metal front men I have ever seen. This was one helluva show at the Manning Bar in Sydney on Friday night, and …

After a scorching week, going outdoors for a whole day event requires some level of craziness. I was excited to be able to attend “By the C – Wollongong” at Stuart Park. It’s a beautiful park beside the beach and a popular venue for family fun activities. The last time I visited Stuart Park was during my wife’s skydiving adventure …

We all knew Australia’s biggest ever dance party, The Summer Series, was going to be a night of decadence, the ultimate treat of all treats.  Just thinking about this evening of musical indulgence was enough to make even the most ardent of music fans salivate.  There are so many memories and emotions evoked when you think of these iconic bands …

It may be over 20 years since his last tour but this was one night worth waiting for. Phil Collins, the singer/songwriter/drummer/producer/multi-instrumentalist, award winner, with hundreds of millions of records sold, gave Sydney such a beautiful performance on Monday night at the Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, that it has made the rest of the working week that much more …

When it seems like the whole world has lost its sense of musicianship and gone crazy after cyber-celebs-&-bling-bangs, some people still go their own way of creating music and work hard towards mastering their craft. In this era, when most artists rely on tech and other “shadow” creators, you can’t go wrong with the true test of hardwork, creativity, ingenuity …

Any tribute band that steps onto the stage to perform Led Zeppelin must understand what kind of huge challenge they face. Most fans know Led Zeppelin’s catalogue back to front and can play the solos in their mind, perhaps even note-for-note. They might not be able to replicate Robert Plant’s vocals, but surely, they all know how it should sound. …

What better way to celebrate the timeless music of The Beatles than at the iconic Sydney Opera House with some of the finest Australian musical talents. This tribute show featured 4 insanely talented vocalists: Jack Jones, Ciaran Gribbin, Rai Thistlethwayte & Jackson Thomas. They were accompanied by The 35 Piece Strawberry Fields Rock Orchestra who added an extra element of depth and atmosphere, …
