Soundtrack to my life...

As you read my blogs you will soon discover I have great passion for both music and travel. For the last 9 years I have worked in live music venues, both at home in Sydney and here in London. One of my many dreams is to one day produce a travel program that tours the world critiquing quality live music venues and clubs across various continents and countries, providing a unique insight into the local music scene and after-hours culture of a featured city or town. I believe understanding different cultures, experiencing and learning from our worldwide community can bring people together and help create harmony - and what better way to do this than through music and dance?

It is with this in mind that I have started writing reviews on...

Both music venues and live shows -

As well as on the nocturnal life of a bartender -

Working behind a bar in a venue comes with the fantastic perk of being to see bands on a constant basis, getting behind the scenes of the venue and shows and seeing how it all works. Working in the UK in the past year alone I have seen the likes of Prodigy, Primal Scream, Motorhead, Mogwai, Biffy Clyro, Underworld, The Kooks, The Pogues, Paul Weller, The Foals - and that's not including the side-splitting comedians I've seen or festivals I've worked!


So I hope you enjoy my reviews, and please feel free to leave comments and suggestions - whether they be of a new band, venue, or just to tell me to shut the hell up - all communications are welcome here!
