Some of the MANY pictures I took last night. Terrible photography but you can kind of make GNR out..if you squint.

I promise the crazed Guns N Roses fandom business will stop soon but in the meantime..here is some of the stuff I snagged from the gig.

Guns N Roses - Liverpool Echo Arena - 20th May - Review

Axl Rose was not late. Not technically. True, he didn’t appear on stage until 11pm. True, this was frustrating and true, the crowd was less than impressed and the booing had begun, but he actually wasn’t late. From a purely technical point of view, he never actually specified what time he would arrive on stage. The supports act sent their schedule to the Echo Arena but Axl and co didn’t. This is not to say that the 11pm wasn’t an annoyance, or that it was especially en...

Gonna write a review of last night’s gig in a bit. I read a ridiculous one in the Liverpool Echo (fortunately I don’t think that paper has a readership of over 10 people…) and judging by some of the comments underneath it nobody else agreed. Honestly it was so good - best gig I’ve ever been to x100. I shall explain in more detail shortly.

Wasn’t at the Nottingham gig but they were AMAZING at Liverpool last night, I can’t even describe. Also..a 3 hour set? Value for money.

“Date a girl who reads. Date a girl who spends her money on books instead of clothes. She has problems with closet space because she has too many books. Date a girl who has a list of books she wants to read, who has had a library card since she was twelve.


Find a girl who reads. You’ll know that she does because she will always have an unread book in her bag.She’s the one lovingly looking over the shelves in the bookstore, the one who quietly cries out when she finds the book she wants. You se...

Extract from my second novel, The Travelling Circus of Lacrimosa - Act II Scene II.

“And now I shall try my skill with nature and the elements.”

For the first time, the conjuror’s face was overtaken with a look vaguely resembling concentration. He raised his arms, leaned back his head so that the sleek, black curls tumbled from the face, and spoke some rapid incantation in a language so hidden that William could not even hear it, least of all comprehend whatever words were rushing, frenzied, from Lacrimosa’s mouth. Within moments, the impossible occurred and a storm rattled a...

Going to see Guns N Roses tonight..

Excited doesn’t cover it. They have always been my favourite band and, while I am aware this it is not the original lineup and is in fact only Axl Rose, I am still extremely excited to be seeing them - it feels weird in a way to grow up loving a band so much and finally being able to see some form of them. Hurry up time.
