Guess Who's Back ...

Sorry for the big gap since the last post guys, University lived up to its promise by taking over my life for the last two months or so, and strictly speaking it is still going to take up large portions of my time over the next month or so, but as I'm sure you will all be glad to hear I am back in blog-writing mode. Boom.

So not alot's happened since I left you ay? Just some small skuffles in the capital over poor old students paying more money, snow once again grounding poor old England, the England cricket team still struggling to beat 'the worst Oz side ever' in the Ashes. And this is without mentioning the biggest news of all; Liam Gallagher is back with Beady Eye. Boom.

Well over the coming weeks I shall be putting up promised reviews of Sir Paul McCartney's reissued Band On The Run album, a piece of John Lennon as we pass through the 30th anniversary of the great man's death and of course, my views on 'Bring The Light' from Beady Eye. Also, watch out for my highlights of 2010 and my favourite albums from the past 12 months.

To look forward to next year, well there is of course a return to the weekly supply of album and single reviews, with the occassional gig thrown in there. Big highlight at the moment will be the Isle of Wight Festival, for which I am attending for the fourth year in a row, and with Kings of Leon, Foo Fighters, Pulp, Kasabian and Beady Eye confirmed already it promises to be a cracker. Stay tuned.

Where it may be until mid-January that I return to regular posting, I will do my best to keep up over this busy Christmas, New Year and Uni deadline period. For now though, here is the legend himself John Lennon, with one of the greatest Crimbo tunes of all time, 'Happy Xmas (War Is Over) to a superbly seasonal background.

It's good to be back people.
