Proud custodian of but you're more likely to find me tweeting randomly about music and politics here

@BanquetRecords going to be hard pushed to sell 150 tickets if you are only putting them on sale at the same time as the gig starts 😀

Once again it's 100% ManUtd coverage on #BBCFootball as if nothing else is going on, every other club in the world clearly taking the day off are they? What other club would get wall to wall coverage about an interview done by one of its owners.

WTF @YouTube Just had an ad for a "totally legal" gun that is absolutely promoting itself as legal and safe but the whole ad is basically telling me how this gun will do the business! What the hell are you doing allowing ads like this on your UK platform

@poziband were a whole lot of fun @twopalmshackney. Because who doesn't love a singer drummer or a singing violinist? Third time seeing them and absolutely the best yet

Quite likely the harshest review I've ever written!

#Review: The Employees @southbankcentre ★

"I may be a lone dissenting voice, but I have never felt so angry at a production in my entire time reviewing."

Wicked is no longer the worse thing I've ever had to watch on stage! Tonight I've seen the most pretentious piece of 'arty' theatre that I've ever had the misfortune to sit thru. Everyone involved in making it should be ashamed thar they have taken money to make this!

#Review: Tarantula @arcolatheatre ★★★★★

"One of the most intense 90 minute performances that you will see this year and one that has already set the bar high for anything else I see over the next 12 months."

Can someone explain to me why on earth is "husband wishes wife happy birthday" considered @BBCBreaking News? Perhaps BBC should just have a whole different push notification section for "royal gossip" so the rest of us don't have to hear it, it really isn't news is it!

#Feature: @robwarren348 rounds up his year of reviews for ET

"It’s about being able to take a risk or two in picking shows that you might otherwise not consider spending your hard earned cash on."

All ready to set off to @rockaway_fest for the 8th time, so expect three days of me posting "wow, must see that band again this year", along with some very poor quality photos!

[Everything Theatre @EveryTheatre]

Welcome to 2025

If one of your resolutions this year is to see more theatre, then why not write about it as well?

And this year we're especially keen to hear from reviewers outside of London so we can expand on our non-London coverage.

Interested?

Want to know how we did in 2024? And what we have planned for 2025? Then read our end of year round up and marvel in our stats!

What better way to spend Christmas time off then spend way too long designing these for our reviewers @EveryTheatre!

I think the effort was worth it thou.

[Rob Warren @Robwarren348]

Some hard hitting ideas at play in @Fullfrontalbiz's Rodney Black: Who Cares: It's Working @LandUTheatre. Takes aim at those who want words without consequences and those who will tell you it was only a joke and not to take it so f#%king seriously. Teo more nihjys to catch it

[Rob Warren @Robwarren348]

Gig 3 in 3 days @thedears @Islington_AH to celebrate 20th anniversary of No Cities Left. Complete with 15 piece band, and it sounded incredible!

The legs are suffering a bit, I'm not quite 20 anymore for 3 nights in a row! But god it's worth every aching bone

One of my favourite albums of the year is from @cumgirl8_ and their live show @TheUnderworld didn't disappoint either! Just so much energy and fizz and attitude.

Who remembers after the Brexit vote, people saying if you don't like it, leave the country?

Well, “call a general election” people, if you don't like it...

[Rob Warren @Robwarren348]

I'd hazard a guess those signing the petition probably the same people who said after the Brexit vote that there couldn't be another vote cos that's democracy, even thou its proven a disaster. At least you can have another GE in a few years time. now that is how democracy works.

[Rob Warren @Robwarren348]

I think people saying General Election Now are mistaking an online petition where you just click a button to vote (from anywhere in the world) with a GE where you have to make an effort to vote and live in in the UK.

But hey, you all get excited about your pointless poll.

[Rob Warren @Robwarren348]

Imagine if we did govern by online polls, we'd be changing govt's every few months. But at least we wouldn't have had to put up with 14 years of Tory corruption and incompetence. Maybe let this govt have a little time to work thru the mess and disaster of those 14 years first?
