While it’s questionable booking that Celtic punk legends Dropkick Murphys are playing downstairs in the main Academy tonight, it still doesn’t stop The King Blues from practically selling out their first ever Newcastle headline show.

Interview: The King Blues
August 10, 2009
We caught up with Itch Fox, frontman of The King Blues, before their recent matinee show in York and got talking about their mainstream success, future plans, the UK punk scene and, of course, politics.
Faye: What’s with the matinee show today?
Itch: I’m not too sure. [laughs] We’re doing this, this afternoon, I think it’s an under 18 thing, or at least an all-ages show, I know that much, then we’re going to Middlesbrough later to play. I think we’re seeing how hard we can work before one of us cracks up and goes mad, I’m pretty close at the moment.
F: How’s The King Blues’ summer been so far?
I: It’s been good, it’s been a very busy summer, there’s been a lot of festivals. We just got back from Ibiza, that was fun. We’ve done a lot of things we haven’t done before, there’s so many new festivals that spring up each summer and it’s cool to check them out, there’s like the bigger ones like V and Big Weekend, right through to Why Not Festival, where we were last night, and a lot of other smaller ones that are dab, they’re cool. It’s been a very good summer so far.

Live Review: Slam Dunk Festival, Leeds Uni, May 24th 2009 (Faye)
May 28, 2009
After spending hours in the sweltering heat, harassing bands and folk in the queue for on-the-spot interviews, as well as handing out D.I.Y. changetherecord.net ‘business cards’ in the form of notepad paper written in biro, accumulating some attractive sun burn and getting fat off essential pre-gig food (Morrison’s mini-doughnuts) along the way, 3pm finally arrived and doors opened. Holy run-on sentence.
