Creative Direction
Blind.
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? If you can’t make me happy, why have I forgotten how to be happy without you? I …
Pairing: KISS & Jack Daniels Cider
Whether I’m in my local shop, pub or tube station, I just can’t escape Jack Daniels. The company have spent countless years and pounds building their brand recognition to a point where no one asks for a whiskey and coke any more, they ask JD and coke. Good for them. It was Lemmy’s favourite drink …

Aerosmith Are Not Saying ‘Farewell’
Joe Perry, Aerosmith guitarist, has revealed that the band have changed their minds and have decided not to split up after their farewell tour.

Live Review: Iron Maiden
Iron Maiden stage a celebration of British Heavy Metal and a statement of unity at the O2 Arena. After receiving a body scan and a long moment of being intensely watched, I would have usually thought that I’ve pulled.
