Happy Birthday O2,

Happy Birthday O2, happy birthday dear O2, happy birthday O2.....

So it was a complete year earlier this week (Tuesday) when the monstrous cock up that was the Millennium Dome was re-born as the O2 venue in London's Dockland. Who would have thought that the building, sold by the government for just 10p would be able to turn it's fortunes around so quickly and successfully?
As the venue took shape, under the secret shroud of the 'Tent' surrounding it work was already in place booking some of the biggest acts in the world, for some of the longest residencies ever heard of.

With it's outer ring of bars and restaurants, and it's multiple venues, the site is often filling up at 4:00pm in the afternoon preceding a big event.
And unlike many of it's rivals it is not just a Pop music venue but also houses Classical concerts, sports events like basketball, boxing, ice hockey and WWE wrestling and other events like the Tutankhamen exhibition which saw in excess of a million visitors.

Opening act, on June 24th 2007 was Bon Jovi, they had been booked months prior to the opening, but who could have predicted the wealth of names to come?
Prince announced a 7 date residency, later extended to 21 nights, with most (19) followed by an after-show party at the IndigO2.
Take That played nine nights, including New Years Eve (see Pic), the newly reformed Spice Girls had a seventeen night residency, the Rolling Stones and Barbara Streisand played multiple nights, as did Elton John whose demand for acoustic excellence is legendary.
Seeing Elton was one of the key factors for Robert Plant in choosing the venue for the unbelievable Led Zeppelin reunion and both Bruce Springsteen and Roger Waters demand for audio excellence was satisfied. Dolly Parton, Celine Dion, the list goes on....

A taste of things to come? Kylie Minogue plays six nights next month, the legendary Stevie Wonder has three in September, comedian Lee Evans plays six in October/November and the chart smashing Coldplay three in December, and that's just starters for the second year of O2 in London.
The Wombats open new club 'Matter' on 15th November.
Further in the future sees the O2 hosting the World Gymnastic Championships in 2009 and it will be the venue for the 2012 Olympic Games Basketball and Gymnastic events.

The future is bright.... (Oops!)

Live Music: My Bloody Valentine at the Roundhouse

When I heard a few months ago that My Bloody Valentine were reforming for a few shows in the UK I could not resist the temptation to see one of the few great bands of the late 80's and early 90's that I had missed out on first time around.
My friend Ian and I took our seats on the balcony at the Roundhouse and waited for the promised onslaught. I have seen some loud and noisy bands in my time and the people around us, busily stuffing in their ear plugs dared tell us that we would not be able to hear ourselves think. We are gig professionals you know!

Kevin Shields and Bilinda Butcher are practically motionless and their vocals almost totally inaudible, after three songs I turn to the guy next to me, is this normal? Yep he says, not enough power in the P.A. for...
I lose the rest of his answer as they start up again. They run through the set, which I am told afterwards is almost identical to the one they played last in 1991, mainly songs from Isn't Anything and Loveless, and none of the much talked about and often discarded 'New' material.
At the end a momentous wall of sound. Most big rock bands finish their set with the everything at volume eleven, feedback screaming, cymbal crashing, guitar smashing 30 seconds, imagine that getting ever louder for eight or nine minutes.... or nearer 20... a couple of seconds silence, ten more seconds white noise and they were gone....
An experience indeed!! I am awestruck, this bands reputation is justified. The epitome of the Shoegazer era of rock music I rush home to order the albums from CD WOW!
They surely won't be as good as the live show however, my stereo just doesn't go up loud enough!!

Here is a video of the track 'Only Shallow' from our friends at YouTube, I looked for some live footage from the show but it is all so distorted you can't really hear anything!

• Isn't Anything (1988) £6.49
• Glider (E.P.) (1990) £7.99
• Loveless (1991) £7.99

Both full length albums are due for a July re-release and the new package of Loveless 2CD Digipak Remastered at just £8.99 will include the entire album remastered from the original Analogue tapes on the second disc, a must for collectors and new fans alike!

Lil Wayne joins 50 Cent in the record books!

In a great week for UK artists in the US it would also be rude not to put a shout out to New Orleans native Lil Wayne.
He became the first artist since 50 Cent's - The Massacre in 2005 to sell over a million units in just one week. WOW!

His sixth album Tha Carter III exceeded all expectations and becomes only the 15th album to register a seven figure sale since soundscan started supplying reliable data in 1991. Big up to Lil Wayne!

Available from CD WOW! Tha Carter III is just £7.99 with free shipping... with the 2CD edition at £10.99.
