Well, I finally managed to get all my photos sorted, edited and uploaded from last weekend’s shenanigans at Haigh Hall! It’s the post production side of things that most people simply wouldn’t even think about, but it really takes up all your time. It’s one of the reasons why wedding […]
Well, we’re almost through with the Haigh Live 2011 event! I’ve taken hundreds of photos over the past two days, so it’ll take a little while to sort them all, especially with Haighfest all day tomorrow meaning I’ll have to add another few hundred to the pile. So far I’ve […]
“What the fuck is that?!” Apologies for the obscenities so early on in my review, but I think it’s a pretty accurate summary of my thoughts when I turned up at The Boulevard and caught Mechagodzilla running through soundcheck. A near six foot, flame haired beauty was barking into the […]
“Event Invitation – The Mighty Sparrow record launch!” It was the above Facebook notification that had me heading up the M6 to Wigan once again to catch up with a band that I’d shot once before. Jeramiah Ferrari are bunch of young lads from Leigh, who manage to blend reggae […]
So, this weekend I got an invite to an event that was pretty hard to turn down. Local band ‘Element’ were playing a gig in Wigan to celebrate the launch of their second album ‘Corrupt Desires’. Joining them on the bill were fellow Wigan metal band ‘Sacrament’ and Element’s record […]

I decided to take full advantage of a booze and BBQ filled Bank Holiday weekend to go and watch a band I’d heard a lot of good things about. ‘The Hicks’ are a 3 piece from Wigan who’ve been getting excellent reviews everywhere I looked, plus I’d already heard their […]
So, I decided to have a play about with ‘Google Analytics’. For the uninitatied (which until last week, included me!) Google logs and stores information on every user that uses it. That’s not as unusual as you’d think.. however what IS scary is just how much information is logged. Try […]
Hi folks.. Managed to catch four bands this weekend, which is pretty good going by anyone’s standards! First up was a trip to ‘The Boulevard’ in Wigan town center on Friday. Location wise, it’s nice and easy to get to which is always a bonus, but it’s not great for […]
Sat at home feeling very sorry myself at the mo’.. having been struck down with that most serious of afflictions, Man-Flu. I think I’ll spend the time constructively though and work a little on the site.. I’m also considering making the jump from Aperture 3 to Lightroom 3 for my […]
