KUBIX FESTIVAL TO ROCK SUNDERLAND THIS SUMMER

 SOME of the biggest music stars from three iconic decades of pop are heading to Sunderland as the city hosts a brand new music event this summer (August 2018).

 The Kubix Festival will bring a weekend of nostalgia to Herrington Country Park over the weekend of Friday and Saturday August 10 and 11.

 The two day event will feature some of the hottest names from the 70s, 80s and 90s.

 Boyzone frontman Ronan Keaton will headline Friday’s 1990s-inspired show, as he performs a selection of the band’s most famous hits, along with some of his solo chart-toppers.



 He will be supported on the night by fellow Irish favourites B*witched, Peter Andre, boyband East 17 and Right Said Fred.

 Saturday will bring a totally different sound to Herrington Country Park as dandy highwayman Adam Ant leads a star-studded line up.

The man responsible for hits like Prince Charming and Stand & deliver will headline a night of music from some of the biggest names from the alternative and indie scenes.

 He will be joined by The Boomtown Rats featuring Bob Geldof, the Fun Lovin’ Criminals, Peter Hook & The Light, Buzzcocks, The Undertones and The Blockheads.

 “This is a totally new event for Sunderland, and we believe we’ve lined up two nights of fantastic music from some of the biggest stars spanning three decades,” said festival organiser Alex Hutchinson.

 “Friday night will be all about 1990s pop, and our fun and exciting line up is guaranteed to get everyone on their feet and singing along to some real classics.

 “Saturday, meanwhile, will focus more on the more edgy indie scene, and we’re thrilled to have secured an incredible line up of stars for what will be an unforgettable night.”

 Both shows will be family friendly, with reduced tickets available for accompanied under-15s.

 Shuttle bus services will run from Sunderland, Newcastle, Durham, Gateshead, Hartlepool and Middlesbrough on both days, and there will be free parking on-site.

 Advertisment Shambolics KU, Stockton Saturday 13 May 2023 Tickets: https://tinyurl.com/SHAMBOLICSku Stockton’s KU are once again bringing one of the UK’s most exciting new live acts to the region with a show from indie-pop four-piece Shambolics on May 13th. The Alan McGee endorsed band are signed to his Creation23 label and have recently released their latest EP, Take It Or Leave It, while the single of the same name blends Britpop influences with 80s grooves into something to both sing and dance along to. Having only formed in 2017, Shambolics’ debut single, Chasing A Disaster, went straight to number 2 in the UK Official Vinyl Chart and then just before lockdown the band played their biggest show to date, selling out St. Lukes in Glasgow. Then, taking advantage of the enforced break the band relocated to Glasgow and hooked up with producer Chris Marshall. Shambolics’ more recent work is grittier and more honest while maintaining the melodies and upbeat disposition they we

The announcement arrives as the duo also share its title-track today.  Their first new album since 2019’s ‘Farmarama’, ‘The Girl With A Hole In Her Heart’ is a Balearic record, though not one that’s inspired by those fabled Iberian sun-kissed beaches that stretch on forever and sunsets that stop you in your tracks. Rather, it’s a House record made for all night dancing in a decommissioned steelwork. It’s an ambient record that strolls a windswept coastline where lime-grass dunes rise and fall like slu

"It Started With A Cracked Screen" Do your research about where NOT to go to get your phone or computer fixed #consumer #tech #mobilephone #repairs

It's just a crack in the screen...... Not my usual kind of blog post. The smartphone has become part of everyday life. For a business like mine it had opened up new avenues to spread the word about my clients as a PR. I found some of these shut suddenly when my phone hurtled to the kitchen floor. Just a cracked screen. I worried the phone may cost a fortune to fix, but got similar quotes from about 3 people and so when one of them called back promising a 48 hr turnaraound, and 6 months warranty, I thought, I could trust the friendly voice of "John" at the other end of the line. The UPS driver arrived within 10 minutes and my phone was in a padded envelope off to Elite Phones And Computers in Manchester. This was a mistake. I hadn't checked the reviews online, something I always do, and warn other when I find the bad ones.  I sent the phone on Friday and on Monday checked on progress, using the on-site messaging service the company prefers to use instead of ema
