I now have a full set of MJ 'This Is It' tour tickets - WHOOT!

Yes, I am thinking rather like Metallica’s S&M album/performances, and I … Continue reading »

With all of the ‘Over The Rainbow’ love at the moment, thanks to Lord Lloyd-Webber’s new casting show on the BBC, I thought that I’d take his opportunity to share some alternate Oz-esque loving with ya’ll! First up, the legendary Israel Kamakawiwo’Ole with his classic version of Over The Rainbow/What A Wonderful World: I remember … Continue reading »

We Are The World – 25 for Haiti

As mentioned on my blog post yesterday, this morning/’last night’s’ Winter Olympic opening ceremony saw the full release of the ‘We Are The World’ charity record which has been put together by music artists over in the US  in aid of the Haitians.
