Men Behaving Blandly

No comments



















The scandal sheets are filled with sorry tales of Amy Winehouse, Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan and other silly starlets, but where have all the bad boys gone?

Right now in the world of celebrity, it’s the girls that just wanna have fun. The bad boys have turned good – Liam Gallagher prefers daytime telly to drunken brawls, Russell Crowe keeps his temper in check, even Kevin Federline has been nominated for father of the year. When did male celebrities get so boring?

Liam Gallagher: Liam Gallagher’s transformation from rock ‘n’ roll rebel to dedicated family man seems complete with the recent revelation that he does the school run each day and teaches music to students at his son's school in his spare time. And he’s swapped drunken brawls for daytime telly – early in 2007, Carol Vorderman let slip that the Oasis frontman was in negotiations to appear as a regular guest in Dictionary Corner. “I told him I think it will do his cred no end of good,” Carol giggled.

Noel Gallagher To Appear In Ricky Hatton's New DVD

No comments
















He is the Liverpool man with the inside track on Ricky Hatton’s dramatic shot at boxing glory.

Director Mike Cockayne followed the rising star of British boxing around the world to make a film about his life.

The pair became good friends and now Mike, who runs Bold Street film company Integral Productions, has promised Hatton a night out in Liverpool.

Mike, 41, from the city centre, flew out to Las Vegas to film the record-breaking run-up to Hatton’s unsuccessful fight against undefeated US champion, Floyd Mayweather.

The footage will be added to his hit film, already a top selling DVD, and will be screened on ITV 1 in the new year.

He said: “I had a fantastic time making the film and it was a privilege getting such close insight into the life of someone like Ricky.

“The timing couldn’t have been better, with the big Mayweather fight taking place when the film came out.

Mike, who has directed music videos for Atomic Kitten and Happy Mondays, hopes his DVD will become the biggest selling boxing DVD ever.

It has already become a high-street bestseller on the back of promotion by Liverpool PR firm Fire Management, which is run by Mike’s wife Leisa Maloney.

“We also interviewed Amir Khan and Noel Gallagher for the film. Ricky is very well liked.

“One of my favourite parts is when we used a new technique so we could show the viewer what it’s like to get in the ring with Ricky and just what it s like to be hit by the Hitman. It’s a scary experience.”

How British Pop Music Took Over The World

No comments




A new documentary series starts on BBC Four (UK) later this week called Pop Britannia.

Starting with the birth of pop after the Second World War up until the present day, this series examines generations of youthful revolution and how British pop has taken the world by storm.

Episode 1: 10pm, Fri 4 January BBC Four

Move It


But the British Invasion and Beatlemania almost never happened at all. During the previous 20 years, the British music establishment based in London's Denmark Street and controlled by a nexus of publishers, major record companies and the BBC, had done its best to incorporate every new style of popular music and its performers into what it knew best - show business and the light entertainment industry.

By the end of the 50s, rising affluence and new technologies meant that there was a new generation of post war kids, confident that the world was theirs for the taking. Yet they barely had their own soundtrack. Their imaginations had been captured by American rock and roll and rhythm and blues but homegrown British pop was imitative, patronised by the Establishment and our first pop stars - Tommy Steele, Cliff Richard, Marty Wilde et al - were happy to do what their elders and betters told them. This was the world that obliged The Beatles to escape to Hamburg to learn their trade, that repeatedly passed on the band and finally and almost reluctantly signed them while replacing their leather jackets with crew necked suits.

This film traces the ebb and flow of the emergence of a British pop dream in the 50s and its struggle to emerge from a conservative, derivative notion of pop dictated by its elders and betters.

Produced by Alan Lewens

Episode 2: 22:00, Friday 11 Jan, 2008, BBC Four

A Well Respected Man


Together with their artists, the likes of Brian Epstein, Andrew Loog Oldham, Chris Stamp et al, would prise British pop out of the grasp of old school showbiz interests and turn it into the spearhead of a youthful revolution into style.

Yet they also prepared the way for a new, more corporate rock business that allowed big money and corporate lawyers to move in. Glam stole back the impetus for the kids, putting colour, youth and sexuality back into pop after the rock revolution of the late 60s. Glam struggled between two tendencies - one lead by the art-school brigade of Bowie and Ferry who used glam as provocation, the other fuelled the charts as professional songwriters and producers like Chinn and Chapman who sold million of records with the likes of Mud, The Sweet etc. It would take punk to lay the groundswell for a new generation of young pop dreamers.

Produced by Ben Whalley

Episode 3: 22:00, Fri 18 Jan 2008, BBC Four

Two Tribes


At the dawn of the 80s, a generation of punk-inspired art students invented bands like The Human League, ABC and Dexy's Midnight Runners and took British pop round the world again via MTV.

This British pop had a fascination with style and image, a flair for gender provocation and a restless ambition. Spandeau Ballet, Duran Duran and Culture Club took the blueprint and quickly turned into international act that, by Live Aid in 1984 were suddenly starting to act remarkably similarly to old guard acts like Queen with whom they shared the Wembley stage.

A new mainstream was emerging and Stock, Aitken and Waterman re-modelled the Motown approach for Thatcher's Britain while Pet Shop Boys looked wanly on. The 90s belonged to the starmakers who put together the likes of Take That and Boyzone and Cool Britannia, a brief art school coup by the indie kids lead by Blur and Oasis. 10 years on, the likes of Franz Ferdinand and Kaiser Chiefs have taken up the Cool Britannia challenge while Girls Aloud and Sugababes prove that good production-line pop is a matter of character and producer.

Dave Berry's A Fan Of Liam Gallagher

No comments



















With Britney Spears treating herself to a Richard O'Brien-style makeover, Amy Winehouse treating herself to a last minute, month-long career break and Pete Doherty apparently treating himself to a bit of chemically-enhanced quality time with his cat, 2007 has been one hell of a year in the world of celebrity. What on earth will our favourite fame-hoggers get up to next?

One man who might just have an inkling is Dave Berry, the host of Channel 4's latest Celebrity Predictions special. We gave the model, TV presenter and Sugababe-squeezer (Hello Heidi!) a call to find out more.

Who's your favourite celebrity?
"I like Liam Gallagher - as a musician, as a fashion icon and as a man. I don't know whether I'd class him as a celebrity. Where is the line drawn, you know? Is Kate Moss an international supermodel and fashion icon or a celebrity? You know, I really don't see what people like Paris Hilton bring to the table. Personally, I think that she should be used as a human incubator for healthy organs. For example, if one of our very brave fire-fighters was to need another kidney after something happened to him in a house fire, well, I'd say Paris has been keeping one warm for him for the last 25 years."

Celebrity Predictions airs December 30 at 12.30pm on Channel 4.

Top Ten Gigs Of The Year

No comments
















2007 has been a great year for gigs, here are our top ten choices...

Noel Gallagher – Royal Albert Hall, London: The man’s God-like Teenage Cancer Trust performance confirmed the 40-year-old is now the star attraction in Oasis. The big hits remained in his locker in favour of the greatest B-sides ever recorded, while Paul Weller, 49, joined in for Jam classic Butterfly Collectors.

Prince – O2 Arena, London: Prince gigs have been notoriously hit and miss over the years but the 49-year-old diminutive purple genius finally cracked open his back catalogue greats during his 21 Nights In London residency. Backed by the late James Brown’s sax player Maceo Parker, 64, the wee fella even chucked in a copy of his current album with the ticket price. Good man.

Take That – Odyssey, Belfast: I didn’t think my favourite manband could top their comeback shows – but boy did they ever. Pole dancing, nu-rave remixes and 37-year-old Jason Orange overcoming his shyness to deliver a beautiful solo of Wooden Boat were particularly special moments. Even when Howard Donald, 39, punctured his lung, Mark Owen, 35, Gary Barlow, 36, and J soldiered on.

Daft Punk – Wireless Festival, London: The French dance wizards’ first tour in 10 years was an audio visual, delight featuring a stunning pyramid stage and light show. Best of all was the ingenious way the robot duo mixed their best bass bin-blowing moments into a sort of glorified Jive Bunny megamix.

Arctic Monkeys – Ibiza Rocks, Bar M: The Sheffield primates took over the White Isle and the red-necked barmy army were there in full force to sing along. Surrounded by lobster-coloured lasses, Alex Turner’s top-notch tales of life in Everytown sent lucky punters totally mental in this tiny beach club. Alex, 21, looked like he almost enjoyed himself.

Justin Timberlake – Odyssey, Belfast: Justin, 26, came of age on his FutureSex/ LoveSounds tour. Set in the round, this show gave fans the chance to glimpse those infamous dance moves from all angles. Justin also played guitar and piano, as well as showing off his spine-tingling falsetto.

Led Zeppelin – O2 Arena, London: The music world collectively wet their knickers over this mother of all reunions in honour of late label boss Ahmet Ertegun. The sight of Jimmy Page, 63, straddling his signature twin-necked guitar to chime the opening notes of Stairway To Heaven and then produce a cello bow for his legendary Dazed & Confused solo certainly lived up to the extraordinary hype.

My Chemical Romance – Koko, London: The Black Parade album was meant to play out like a movie and 30-year-old Gerard Way’s theatrical performance was certainly authentic. He prowled across the stage and drank the audience in like a thirsty runner. This was no hastily put-together show and their hardcore planning was worth every second.

The Who – Wembley Arena, London: From the anthemic Baba O’Riley through to youngster punk beast My Generation, this British institution can still shatter eardrums. An iconic performance that blew a raspberry in any young copycats’ faces.

Amy Winehouse – Brixton Academy, London: After a disastrous and somewhat tearful tour opener in Birmingham, 24-year-old Amy got it together for some of her London shows, reminding us that when she is on song no one can hold a candle to that incredible voice. Here’s hoping she pulls through in 2008.

Noel Gallagher To Join Kasabian On Stage In Edinburgh?

No comments















Kasabian are cooking up a special surprise for their headlining stint at Concert in the Gardens – but the cheeky scamps won't tell.

"It wouldn't be much of a surprise if I told you what it is," says frontman Tom Meighan, and it's hard to argue.

Still, no harm in a little probing, so when it's put to the singer that the Leicester band could be joined on stage by none other than their pal Noel Gallagher from Oasis, he's visibly taken aback.

"Oh man, where did you hear that?" he laughs, firing the question straight back.

"Nah, seriously, who told you that?"

When Meighan is informed that a little birdy told us, he makes a not-very-convincing job of playing down said speculation.

"That's bull****, man," he begins earnestly, before saying, "No man, I don't know anything about it."

Then he adds: "I don't want to say too much about anything but . . . no man."

It was Meighan's bandmate, rakish guitarist Sergio Pizzorno, who set the rumour mill in motion, teasing, "Since we are headlining it, we have planned a surprise.

"I can't tell you what it is because it's one of those things that if it does not happen, then it will still be a great gig.

"But if we do pull it off it will be the greatest New Year throughout the whole world – I promise."

Back to Meighan, whose resistance to the rumour is wearing down. He says: "Oh man, right, all I'm saying is there's a very strong possibility of . . . Oh man, listen, if we can pull it off, let's just say that it's gonna be a corking Hogmanay.

"It's going to be awesome whatever happens, I can tell you that much," he adds.

This is the most forthcoming 26-year-old Meighan has been on the subject of Gallagher's possible cameo and, to be fair, it's not as if Kasabian aren't capable of providing their own fireworks on stage.

Leicester's biggest musical export since Engelbert Humperdinck, the band have visited the Capital on two previous occasions, and both resulted in bristling performances.

The band's two principal members, Meighan and Pizzorno (the others are Chris Edwards and Ian Matthews) met in Leicester, aged 11. The year was 1993 and Oasis ruled the airwaves.

Fast forward a few years and the lads set out to emulate their heroes, holing themselves up at a now-mythical farm where they "arrived for a party and never got around to leaving".

It was there they recorded their eponymous debut album, a release which may have bypassed most critics but connected dramatically with an audience that recognised them as one of their own – just as Oasis had done with Meighan and Pizzorno in 1993.

The band sold an impressive 700,000 copies of their first album in the UK alone, and went on to become the undisputed victors of the festival circuit, putting on sizzling performances at T in the Park, Glastonbury, Reading and Leeds.

But if their debut album announced their arrival then it was the follow-up effort, Empire, which put the band in the big league, shooting into the charts at Number 4, and going on to win a wedge of awards.

Like idols Oasis, Kasabian have since gained a huge and fiercely loyal following, and those who witness their show at Concert in the Gardens will be happy with what they get.

After all, this is the band who took home the Best Live Act award at the 2007 NME Awards.

"We were delighted when we were asked to play the Edinburgh Hogmanay gig," says Meighan, who adds the band didn't have to think twice before accepting the invitation.

"It's like, what else would we be doing on New Year's Eve anyway? Sitting at home in front of the telly watching Jools Holland and watching Big Ben, waiting for the bells. And then what? Phoning about 200 relatives and telling them how much you love them?

"Nah, we're coming up there and it's gonna be mental.

"Edinburgh's up there with New York and the rest of 'em for New Year's Eve, and we've heard it's the best Hogmanay party in the world.

"We've never been to the Edinburgh Hogmanay Party but we've seen it on telly and we can't wait for it. It's gonna be awesome. We're going to f****** rock that place."

After next week's gig it's back to the recording studio for the band, who aim to put out album number three in the summer.

"We're recording the third album just now on the outskirts of Leicester," explains Meighan. "We've got this little studio set up and it's like the Batcave – it's hidden away and no-one can find it.

"We did an EP a while back and it's along similar lines to that. We put a few right good demos down and it's sounding great.

"We'll get back in there at the beginning of January and hopefully it will be ready for release in the summer."

Asked what sort of year 2007 has been for the band, Meighan answers in his customary amusing manner. "Effin' mental, man," he laughs.

"It's been another mental year for us. Man, this was supposed to be a year when we took it a bit easier and it's been full f****** on. We've played about 85 gigs already, ridiculous, man, and next year we'll probably play about 800 more.

"We played two gigs in Brazil 'cos we've got a lot of fans there. Man, the place is horrible, horrible. Horrible man, it's completely poverty stricken and it wasn't a nice place to go."

Switching the subject back to Edinburgh and Pizzorno says he too can't wait to get up on the stage at Princes Street Gardens. "Playing there is going to be phenomenal," he smiles.

"I am really looking forward to it and now I couldn't imagine being anywhere else."

He adds: "Like I said, Edinburgh is well renowned for being the place to be on New Year's Eve. I've never been there to celebrate it but I've always wanted to.

"I've seen it on the telly and it looks fantastic – all the people on the streets going mental."

Getting the last word in, Meighan revels in telling of the band's plans for after the gig.

"Just get right in the middle of it and join in with all those mental Scots," he says.

"Yeah, I reckon we'll pull off a stormer of a gig and, as we come off stage about five minutes before the countdown to the bells, we can then just get right in there amongst it all. We're gonna 'ave it."

Scary Liam's No Ho Ho

No comments













Christmas is a time for family feuds and nobody does them quite well as the Gallagher brothers.

Liam's monobrow is pointing firmly to the south cause he's been banned from dressing as Santa at the clan's Christmas Day party in Switzerland.

The general feeling is that moody Liam, 34, is too scary to play the portly gift-bearer and will end up making the children cry. Noel, 40, has been asked to take over.

If Liam's rage doesn't simmer down before the big day. Noel could end up replacing the angel on the top of the Christmas tree.

Our man with the Mancunian reindeer said: "Poor Liam. He'd gone to the trouble getting the beard and having a red suit specially tailored. He even rehearsed a rock version of Jingle Bells in a Santa voice.

"Liam's also a bit miffed his family and friends think kids are scared of him."

We're guessing the first Noel won't go down too well at the party.

Movie heart-throb Johnny Depp has starred in a string of critically acclaimed blockbusters, but his personal career high was playing on the Oasis track 'Fade In-Out'.

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street star even gave Oasis songwriter Noel Gallagher a guitar during the recording sessions for Be Here Now, which he often plays at concerts still.

Johnny says, "The guys are pals of mine, and I was in the studio when they put down Fade In-Out so they let me play lead slide guitar.

"We did it in one take, too. I gave Noel Gallagher a white guitar as a gift and he often uses it in gigs.

"You'll know it's mine because it has the letter 'P' on it."

The Verve Close UK Tour By Paying Tribute To Manchester Bands

No comments













Richard Ashcroft also surprises everyone with his new haircut.

The Verve closed their UK Arena tour tonight (December 21) with a triumphant show in Manchester.

The Wigan four-piece, who were playing their second night in the city, blasted through a 14 song set featuring tracks from all three of their albums 'A Storm In Heaven', 'A Northern Soul' and 'Urban Hymns'.

Like their previous low key tour, the band took to the stage to David Axelroyd's 'Holy Are You' before singer Richard Ashcroft declared to the crowd: "This is The Verve in Manchester on a Friday night. Let's have it. Come on."

Instead of kicking off with their trademark signature tune 'This Is Music', the band opted for 'A Northern Soul' opener 'A New Decade'.

Richard also surprised everyone when he arrived onstage sporting a new bleached blonde haircut similar to My Chemical Romance singer Gerard Way's during their Black Parade tour.

The gig was the band's last of the year and capped off a memorable return for the Wigan four-piece who are rumoured to be headlining Glastonbury next year.

Rounding off the show with 'Bitter Sweet Symphony', Ashcroft urged the crowd to help him along before he said: "Merry Christmas Manchester. I love you forever and The Smiths and The Stone Roses and Oasis."

The band will now head into the studio to complete sessions for their forthcoming fourth album.

The Verve played:

'New Decade'
'This is Music'
'Space And Time
'Weeping Willow'
'Life's An Ocean'
'Sonnet'
'Sit And Wonder'
'Velvet Morning'
'Lucky Man'
'Stormy Clouds'
'On Your Own'
'The Drugs Don't Work'
'Come On'
'Bitter Sweet Symphony'

Earlier The Coral played a host of hits from their recent album 'Roots And Echoes' including 'Who's Gonna Find Me', 'Jacqueline' and 'In The Rain'. The band also threw in fans favourite 'Dreaming Of You'.
