Live Music Reviews: 2017/18 Roundup

Here is a roundup of my live music reviews in winter 2017 and 2018:

Review: Courteeners at O2 Guildhall Southampton

Last week I attended my final live music event of 2018 to see Manchester band Courteeners perform at O2 Guildhall Southampton.

Review: Jeff Lynne’s ELO at The O2 Arena

On  20th October, I went back in time to the world of 70’s rock music and experienced the electronic guitars, colourful lighting and orchestral magic of Jeff Lynne’s Electric Light Orchestra.

Review: Editors at The Marble Factory, Bristol | October 2018

Check out Emma’s review of her spontaneous night out to see Editors in Bristol.

Review: Arctic Monkeys at the O2 Arena

The date was Sunday 9th September, the venue was The O2 Arena in London and the star act performing were indie-rock band, the Arctic Monkeys.

Review: Victorious Festival 2018 (Sunday)

Victorious Festival is a three day music event that takes place in Portsmouth, on the south coast of England, over the August Bank Holiday weekend. I attended on the Sunday, hoping to enjoy a summers day watching the likes of Reverend & the Makers, Lucy Spraggon, Embrace, plus many more.

Review: Foo Fighters at London Stadium (night 2)

Summer is officially here and what a better way to start than rocking out to Foo Fighters at London Stadium. I’m aware this is a slightly late review, but trust me, it was worth the wait. Plus I wanted to open my new Monday Music feature in true rock style.

Review: The Wombats at O2 Guildhall Southampton

This is a short and sweet review of a short and sweet performance. My overall feeling after watching The Wombats live was that I felt “So happy! So happy! So happy!” The band from Liverpool were energetic, lively, joyful and thoroughly entertaining.

Review: Thirty Seconds To Mars at The O2

After an extremely long 115 day wait, I finally begun my 2018 gig campaign. First stop, Thirty Seconds To Mars at The O2. It was filled with a lot of singing and a lot of jumping (well shaking in my wheelchair!) The show was jam-packed with raving rifts, booming bass, dexterous drumming and vibrant vocals throughout.
