The @TyneOperaHouse welcomes R&B Legend Alexander O'Neil to #newcastle

R&B legend Alexander O’Neal comes to Tyne Theatre & Opera House!
Monday 8th October 2018
Tickets available 27/04/18


Tyne Theatre & Opera House are thrilled to welcome American R&B superstar Alexander O’Neal to their stage on Monday 8th October.

 With a music career that spans more than 40 years, Alexander O’Neal has come a long way since he was signed by Prince back in 1981.  One of R&;B’s most iconic names, he has 14 singles to his name with chart smash Criticize still lighting up dance floors and airwaves across the world thirty years after its release.
With two Gold albums – the eponymously titled Alexander O’Neal and All True Man – as well as the triple platinum selling album Hearsay, his place in the R&B Hall of Fame is well and truly deserved.

 2018 will see the release of Alexander’s first album in almost ten years, and fans are in for a treat when they hear how one of the great soul voices has matured since he last ventured into the studio.

 With the release of his hard hitting, blockbuster autobiography last year, and a 50 date UK tour to celebrate 30 years of the iconic Hearsay album, it’s safe to say that fans still can’t get enough of the man from Minneapolis!

 This show is presented by Middleborough based independent promotions company, Ten Feet Tall, and Tyne Theatre & Opera House are delighted to work with their brilliant team.

 Theatre Director Joanne Johnson says: “I’m thrilled that we are able to expand our music programme for 2018. We’ve already welcomed Turin Brakes, Heather Small and Rebecca Ferguson to our stage this year, and there’s more coming up, including indie-pop best-sellers The Feeling, legendary rock icon Steve Harley, and now Alexander O’Neal! It’s an honour to have such a legendary singer grace the Tyne Theatre & Opera House stage.”

 Tickets are priced at £33

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...

The Stagg Do 5 years in the making, written by an American (James DeMarco) , about Geordies, starring Geordies, with Geordie music and with a premiere screened on Westgate Road at the O2 Academy, this was truly a local affair. The story, about a camping trip involving a groom, his best man and his mates takes a turn for the uncomfortable when the father-in-law to be joins the group. Staggy, played by Andrew Stagg is being chaperoned by his fiancee's (Charlotte, played by Therase Neve) father, "The Judge". Daddy-in-law to be, is played by Bill Fellows, a familiar face on many TV series and films. This scuppers the plans of best-man Pob, and pals Si (Simon Buglass) and Radgy (Craig Conway), who really wanted the trip to evolve into a "beer and titties" extravaganza. Much silliness, drug references, the funny things that can happen, in the dark, in the Northumberland countryside add up to an enjoyable romp enhanced greatly by a fabulous soundtrack provided ent...

#livereview Gary Lucas at The Cluny

Live Review:  Gary Lucas at The Cluny, Newcastle Still buzzing from a standing ovation in Liverpool the night before, Gary opened the show with a cover: I Remember .The rich sound came from his “distressed” acoustic guitar which he claimed was older than him .  Gary filled in between songs with history and amazing anecdotes. He was an anglophile in New York.  He studied at Yale. He loved the Move. He reminisced about John peel breaking Beefheart in U.K.  He saw Beefheart in New York. Interviewed Don Van Vliet for student radio whilst majoring in English Literature. Beefheart was bigger in Europe and Australia rather than in the US, but he knew then he wanted to perform with them. The next song was on electric. Evening Bell was a finger-picking  master class. He’s kept the explosive, disjointed quality of the song as he was instructed to play it all those years ago.  He talked about working as record company advertising executive....
