Live Review: Josh Pyke, Patrick James, Olympia
He loves his fans and his fans love him back. He even hangs out at the merch stand after the gig to sign stubby holders like any top bloke should.

There are elements of seriousness from time to time but for the most part the show is trying to make you laugh and in that it does succeed.

They also throw a hint of MMMBop in there and finish up with The Beatles’ Eight Days A Week so everyone can sing along.

Album Review: The National - Trouble Will Find Me
This is a band that makes intelligent, mature, honest indie rock that goes down like a straight whiskey after a long day.
