About me:

NEW WEBSITE LAUNCHED: www.midlandsrocks.co.uk

Midlands Rocks is an online space, here to promote all things LOUD & PROUD in the Midlands area.

Whether you chill to the Blues, love to 'Rock out with your c**k out', slam-it with the hardest of Metal or all of the above, then you are bound to find something here for you.

Midlands Rocks is many things... a LIVE gig guide (hundreds of gigs listed across the Midlands), live reviews, album reviews, band profiles, interviews, an awesome rock photo gallery and so much more.

Geographically, we cover the West Midlands & East Midlands and a little further beyond when the mood takes us. If it includes a guitar and the volume is cranked up, we are going to tell you about it.

We now have our brand-spanking new website. This will work the hardest of 24 hours a day alongside our MySpace, Facebook & Twitter sites.

Register, follow, poke, post, tweet, comment, participate and let the ROCK be with you.

Who I'd like to meet:

JOIN OUR TEAM!!!

We would love to hear from quality people across the Midlands who fancy reviewing and covering live shows for Midlands Rocks. Also keen photographers who want to get snappy and all artistic like!

Unfortunately we can't pay anything - its just for the love of ROCK. So its ideal for people who are budding journalists OR photographers wanting more 'exposure' (pun intended!).

If this tickles your fancy, please do contact us letting us know your contact details, the type of rock or bands you like and the venues you can get to.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Cheers and keep it LOUD!

    JBs gets all VAIN on a wet & windy winter's night

    San Francisco's glamour boys of 1989, VAIN, came to JBs in Dudley and rolled back the years with their 20th Anniversary tour of their ground-breaking album, No Respect.
     
    The only member of our team old enough to remember them first time around was Peter Keevil, so he duly donned his sowester and headed out into the night!

    INTERVIEW with Richie Kotzen now online...

    They say that good things come to those that wait, well lets see if that holds true as Midlands Rocks' Peter Keevil finally gets his interview with guitar hero Richie Kotzen typed up and posted for you to enjoy.
     
    Peter finds out that Richie is a laid-back soul who loves to record naked at 3am in the morning and much, much (but probably less interesting) more...

    £leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!

    Hugs from Brazil,
    Claudio David

    ~She was a rock star girl
    Partying every night
    The world was now her oyster
    A flame waiting to ignite

    Everyone was her friend
    They all loved her attitude
    She bought almost every round
    They were full of gratitude

    Someone offered her a drink
    With an umbrella in the glass
    She took it with a sparkling smile
    It wouldn't be her last

    The life and soul of the party
    As she danced to the bass line
    She spun and swirled around the room
    Her hair streaming out behind

    But then her lights all faded
    She tumbled gracefully to the floor
    Pandemonium filled the room
    It was time to meet the score

    Our rock star girl was rushed away
    The lights had turned to black
    Someone previously spiked her drink
    When she had turned her back

    So let this be a lesson
    To keep an eye on your drink
    Don't be like our rock star girl
    Use your head and think!


    Ha Ha Ha...(((Giggles)))

    Well, I Do Have To Entertain You...It's MONDAY, After All !
