Papa Roach

October 3rd, 2006 by Todd

Last night I went and saw Papa Roach play at the London Astoria.
It was a last minute ticket purchase, as I didn’t know some friends were going until yesterday arvo. (Papa Roach are a rock band from the states)
They were fantastic live!

Foo Fighters in Hyde Park

June 19th, 2006 by Todd

Saturday arvo I went to a concert in Hyde Park with a group of friends.
Headlining were Foo Fighters, but we also got to see a bit of Angels and Airwaves, Queens of the Stone Age, Motorhead, and Juliette and the Licks – a band lead by actress Juliette Lewis. So it was quite a supporting line-up!

The Waifs

May 6th, 2005 by Todd

The Waifs had been on my list of bands to check out for a while, so when the chance came up I grabbed some tickets. Nic came with me to The Forum on Wednesday night to watch the show.
I’d had extremely limited exposure to their music, having heard only their young-Aussie-travellers-anthem“London still”, and maybe a [...]

Jimmy Eat World

March 23rd, 2005 by Todd

I went to see Jimmy Eat World with my friend Sarah on Tuesday night, at the London Astoria. I’d been reminded of this band when a mate told me he liked their new album. I listened and thought it was pretty good myself, so I bought tickets to this gig back in January I think.
