Live Review: The Academy Is... + The Audition + Young Love
The Cockpit this evening is surrounded by more buzz than I've seen here before. But perhaps buzz is not quite the right word - it would be more accurate to say that there are more hormones flying around tonight than gigs I have previously attended.

Live Review: The Courteeners + Ida Maria
So then after months of waiting the night was finally here, our first chance to see the Academy.

Live Review: David Thomas Broughton + Twi the Humble Feather
The Faversham is not my favourite Leeds venue, to put it mildly. I find the layout exasperating; the enormous pillars forever eclipsing your view of the bands, the bland floorboards giving it an odd village-hall type feeling, and the bar so lengthy and omnipresent that, in quieter musical moments, you are often distracted from what you came to see by the perpetual tinkling of ice and clatter of glasses.

There's already a good crowd gathering at the O2 by the time we get in, and sadly we've missed opening act New Riot due to a traffic incident; given the quality of the 3 track single I heard later that night that's definitely a bad thing and I look forward to catching them in the future.
