First up tonight were local Milton Keynes band False Idol.  They’re a young band and do a set based mainly on their own material but also including two covers – “Take me to Church” (Hozier) and “The Kill” (30 Seconds to Mars).  They’re a decent opener with a hard rock/pop …

Tonight at the Forum was Gov’t Mule.  As usual there is no support act – Gov’t Mule prefer to play without support and do two sets.  Since both sets each last around an hour then fans get over two hours of music from Gov’t Mule, which is excellent value and …

Tonight’s show was the final date on The Treatment’s UK tour.  Supporting them tonight are The Amorettes, the Scottish trio who have been the support for the whole tour, and Airrace, playing a very rare show. First up were Airrace, a melodic rock band that released a couple of albums …

I’d been looking forward to tonight’s gig as it was my first time seeing Danish band D-A-D – or to give them the name they had before the Disney  lawyers persuaded them of the error of their ways, Disneyland After Dark.  The last few times they’ve played the UK their …

The opening act on this leg of the tour are British band I.C.O.N – tonight being their last show with Udo.  I’ve seen them live a few times over the past five years.  A genuinely nice bunch of guys who play some great metal music.  It’s a great set from …

Tonight’s co-headline gig sees both bands getting good length sets.  First up are Pagan metal band, Moonsorrow.  They’ve got a dark, heavy, pagan sound that borders on black metal.  A glance at the setlist shows just 8 songs, so you might think that it was a short set, but nothing …
