The End Is Nigh…2012 in Review

So, that was 2012. A year of sporting prowess, presidential re-elections and, er, Nick Grimshaw (memory was never our strong suit). But before Jools Holland starts fingering away in the middle of the night, what about stuff around here? It was a busy old year for SevenStreets (y’know, the usual, failed legal threats, brilliant theatre, [...]

Win a Camp and Furnace Christmas

You know what – if we had to pick a Liverpool personality of the year, it would probably be Camp and Furnace. Where else could you have sampled the best malt whiskies in the world, cavorted to the twisted fairytales of the Vogue Ball, let your imagination run wild with a table-tennis racket and dived [...]

Hairy Styles: ‘Beerdfest’ at Camp and Furnace

Haven’t you heard? Beards are, like, totally back. Once relegated to dads and weird uncles who wore bad jumpers, now everyone’s in on it. And why not? They’re warm, look good (if you do it right – don’t even think about showing us a straggly one), and save you a tonne of money on razors. [...]

It influences every little bit of our lives: from the computer or phone you’re reading this on, to the clothes you’re wearing, to the way you’ve done your hair today.

Now Playing: Hey Carrianne

We’re smitten with this gorgeously seductive new track from Hey Carrianne. Chilly outside? This’ll warm you up. “There will be tears, and they won’t just be mine,” sings singer/songwriter Carrianne Hayden on this tingling 21st century folk lament, complete with brittle guitar picking and pounding percussion. It’s quite, quite, lovely. They’ll be playing at The [...]

Radar: The Village, Camp and Furnace

Here’s a question for you. What did we do before Camp and Furnace? No, we’ve no idea either. Especially when we hear of cool new events such as The Village. Billing itself as an indoor festival celebrating independent stuff, The Village tickles all our boxes and is exactly why The Baltic is our new favourite [...]

The Weekly Seven: 27th August 2012

Total Recall MOVIE No, not the pale remake. The Paul Verhoeven 1990 original, and best – on ITV 2 this Wednesday (29th August) at 10pm. Is this Arnie’s finest hour? It’s certainly up there with them and, with Showgirls and Starship Troopers, up there with Verhoeven’s best too. In the week after Neil Armstrong’s death, [...]

Right across Merseyside, there’s really good stuff happening this weekend. Which is a good job, to be honest: post-Olympics, and with barely any sun for ages, the summer’s looking like a distant memory already. Sob.
