By No More Workhorse on September 1, 2012 • ( 2 Comments )

By No More Workhorse on August 31, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

Two movies of note this week, Samsara which I’ve already talked about lots, so I won’t mention again! The other one is the bizarre sounding ‘Berberian Sound System’ which is the story […]

Villagers – The Waves

By No More Workhorse on August 30, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

Conor J is back in town, with the first song from his new album called ‘The Waves’. It’s as epic as you can get from five minutes (surprised it’s not longer, but […]

Gig Guide – 29-08-2012

By No More Workhorse on August 29, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

Fair to say it’s not a vintage collection of gigs in the next few months, but a couple of new additions to the list, Beth Orton and Sam Amidon are playing mister […]

Videodrome: Mike Sheridan – Brokvarteret

By No More Workhorse on August 28, 2012 • ( 3 Comments )

Director Martin Garde was kind enough to tip us off on his new video created for Danish artist Mike Sheridan. Like dogs? Like slow-motion? Well this will make your day. Lovely dark […]

By No More Workhorse on August 27, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

By No More Workhorse on August 27, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

Movies – 24-08-12

By No More Workhorse on August 24, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

So, what’s new at the movies this week…a few good ones actually… Shadow Dancer seems to be the big release of the week, it’s the tale of troubles up north, and stars […]

Darklight Festival 2012 – Preview

By No More Workhorse on August 23, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

The Darklight festival is one I’ve largely ignored, and i can’t really put a finger on why! It should be right up my alley, but I’ve only gone to a handful of […]

Mark Eitzel – I love you but you’re dead

By No More Workhorse on August 23, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

Oh happy day! One that almost didn’t happen, but good to have him back, with the first track off his new album ‘Don’t be a stranger’. ‘Lets go toast the twilight at […]

Tall Ships – Bulmers Live Music – George’s Dock

By No More Workhorse on August 21, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

I mentioned this in passing in the ‘Things to do…’ section, but I think it’s more than worthy of a blog in it’s own right (high praise indeed!). It features some of […]

James Yorkston – I was a cat from a book

By No More Workhorse on August 21, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

A new album by James Yorkston is always something to get excited about, so looking forward to this one. And as for the album title, well that is explained here. Where did […]

Samsara

By No More Workhorse on August 21, 2012 • ( 3 Comments )

Baraka is one of those movies that really captured my imagination. The right movie at the right time, I guess. Dazzling cinematography with a great sound track of music by Dead can […]

By No More Workhorse on August 19, 2012 • ( 2 Comments )

Movies – 17-08-12 – Stranger than Fiction – Documentary Season

By No More Workhorse on August 17, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

This worked out nicely, as there’s next to nothing of any quality released this week so I can focus on the Documentaries! Sly and his crew of older action heroes are back […]

Much Ado about Nothing – Project Arts Centre – Cube – Review

By No More Workhorse on August 16, 2012 • ( 1 Comment )

This is a bright, fast paced production of one of Shakespeare’s finest comedy. The large ensemble cast of 16 actors on the tiny stage, vary in age from the very young to […]

By No More Workhorse on August 15, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

By No More Workhorse on August 9, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

Yes, that’s right, it all kicks off tomorrow, and it should be banging! Definitely worth a road trip from the big smoke (and all other quarters). Here’s some of our top picks… […]

By No More Workhorse on August 8, 2012 • ( 1 Comment )
