Steve Hackett – Genesis Revisited Band & Orchestra: Live at the Royal Festival Hall
by Geoff Ford on October 22, 2019 at 6:00 pm
Ask any seasoned Genesis fan about their favourite Genesis era and they invariably speak of those golden years in the ’70s. Inevitably much of the focus, at that time, was on charismatic frontman Peter Gabriel and then Phil Collins, who stepped out from behind his drum kit to launch himself to mega-star status. Whilst attention [&hellip
District 97 – Screens
by Andrew Halley on October 21, 2019 at 6:00 pm
As a band that in certain quarters needs no introduction, a contexture of sorts seems only polite. A bunch of studious musicians playing quirky instrumental metallic avant garde jazzy type crunchy guitar stuff changed direction (slightly) when former American Idol semi-finalist Leslie Hunt added the missing vocal component to make a brand new progressive rock [&hellip
ESP Project – The Rising
by Rob Fisher on October 20, 2019 at 6:00 pm
“Above the towers of prayer and hope Polishing their Poundshop halos by the score They’ve never seen the ground below Whispering their fallacies behind closed doors.” (A Million Heartbeats) Some lyrics instinctively catch your attention; they have a unique and provocative ability to capture a mood, a feeling, a sentiment with a clarity and a [&hellip
Richard Henshall – The Cocoon
by James R. Turner on October 19, 2019 at 6:00 pm
I’ll admit to having an interesting relationship with Haken, having absolutely loved their ’80s inspired album Affinity, whilst I felt Vector was a bit of a step backwards for them, so having heard Richard Henshall, a mainstay of the band, was releasing a solo album, I was unsure as to what to expect. This is [&hellip

De Boerderij, Zoetermeer, NL Sunday, 22nd September 2019 It’s safe to say that De Boerderij in Zoetermeer is the number one prog stage in the Netherlands.

The Royal Albert Hall, London Monday, 30th September 2019 Over the last few years there have been a couple of occasions where I’ve seriously kicked myself after missing out on iconic concerts; Led Zeppelin at the O2 and Kate Bush in Hammersmith being two that instantly spring to mind.
