I recently attended the Hillsong London concert at Heartfelt Arena and ended up having a blast. I was apprehensive when buying the tickets as I had previously watched Jars of Clay perform at the same venue and the sound was so terrible that I ended up leaving halfway through their show. Thankfully the event organisers have learnt from past mistakes.

October 28th saw me at the Coca-Cola Dome in Johannesburg to catch the first of Live's four concerts in South Africa. Live is such a great …well live band. :)

On the 31st of May I went to the…

Nickelback's South African tour has been postponed after an extended American and European tour took a toll on the group.

Local promoters Kusasa South Africa said the extent of the group's American and European tour had taken its toll - severely depleting the band's ability to perform.

The SA tour dates, previously scheduled for November 25 (Sun City Superbowl), November 26 (Fourways, Johannesburg), December 1 (Port Elizabeth), December 2 (Cape Town) and December 3 (Durban) are postponed, with new dates yet to be announced.

According to organiser Duncan Heafield, it was decided to postpone the tour after consultation with…

I went to go watch The Narrow play an unplugged gig at the 88 lounge with a couple of my friends. I was expecting a pretty awesome performance but we were simply blown away! I haven't seen one of their live performances in over a year. They've always been very good but it's clear that they're not lazy.

They are such a professional band. It probably not the correct term to describe them since their performance was so energetic but that's the best I can come up with at the moment.

It's so refreshing to see this after recently being…

I discovered Anberlin today. I am content.

I don't really have the time to go into too much detail but the following music deserves some mention:

A friend recommended I give Day of Fire a listen. I was pleased with what I heard so at least for the foreseeable this individual will still remain a friend.

I wasn't expecting much from Lacuna Coil but they've managed to make quite an impression.

P.O.D's new album Testify turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Anyone know the name of the female vocalist at the end of Goodbye for Now?

Scott Stapp, the guy everyone loves to…

Open Your Eyes never fails to get the blood pumping. It has a definite anthem quality to it.

Bacarra is the very definition of quaint. I was familiar with the track Yes Sir, I Can Boogie but finally got the chance to listen to a whole lot more of their work. Warning: your friends will laugh at you if they ever catch you listening to this.

Crossfade is a last.fm recommendation. They sort of remind me of a slightly agitated Nickelback for some odd reason. If you're one of those music snobs who enjoys boasting to their friends about only listening to 'genuine' rock then you would do well to steer clear of this band.

Fort Minor is…

I finally got hold of Nickel Creek's latest album "Why should the fire die?" which is no small feat in South Africa. I have yet to be disappointed by this band. It's different to their first two albums but by no means inferior.

I wish I discovered Freshlyground two years ago like all the hip and cool people did. Alas, I jumped onto that particular bandwagon a month ago.

I've been listening to Harry Gregson-Williams' "Man on Fire" soundtrack. I've decided that no matter how terrible the movie, I'll go watch it if this man is responsible for…
