I’m blind to the good, to the bad and to all that is not you. I have a number of questions that you'll never hear. Where are you now? Are you still writing songs and are they about me?

Read MoreWhether I'm in my local shop, pub or tube station, I just can't escape Jack Daniels.

I always love it when I listen to a certain song and it reminds me of summer. I'm one of those people that listens to a track over and over when I'm love with it.

Anita Pallenberg was an unusual woman. She is probably remembered most for her time in the '60s and '70s as the bad girl of rock 'n' roll. She attracted danger with a single tip of her feathered hat. She stole the hearts and minds of every man she met and became a muse to one of the most famous rock bands in the world- The Rolling Stones. Anita Pallenberg was…
Read MoreWith over 250 bands performing on just one day, it's inevitable that you won't catch everyone. So, in attempt to catch all the best bands, I spent a long time researching the line up and (sigh) I made an itinerary. Not to say that everyone who didn't end up on my list was bad but there is just not enough hours in the day. First up, we catch the Screaming…
