INTRO RANT How many news channels initially said that the fires in Rhodes and other Greek locations resulted from climate change, yet it’s apparent that arson and discarded cigarettes are to blame? I am a frequent visitor to Corfu. I’ve friends that live there. It’s a yearly occurrence. Still, we’ve got to keep that narrative flame burning now, don’t we? [lousy pun - sorry] Wales and its soon-to-be comprehensive scale implementation of many 20 mph zones. A quick question for Drakeford and his merry men and women - Do you realise that people will be spending more time looking at that speedometer than they will be looking ahead of them? And more cars will pollute more fumes at 20 than at 30 mph. As with all this climate stuff mantra and legislation, it has more holes than the last teabag I used for my cup of tea! If there was no money to be made [governments & industry] with all this climate lark, then people might take it seriously. Me…, well, forget it. I’m only someone with a keyboard and an opinion not blinkered by the TV man/woman.
MUSIC REVIEW Liam Gallagher - Knebworth 22 It might be a live performance CD of past Oasis and Liam Gallagher songs, but it’s Knebworth. I love how Liam has embraced the old with the new. He is the voice of Oasis. He always has, always will be. With talk of an original reformation being just that, talk. Seeing this guy perform at Knebworth alone will - and did - bring back those memories from when Oasis did the same thing many years ago. This CD is for those fortunate to make it last year, decades ago, or both! And for those that made neither, what are you waiting for? 14 CARDIFF TIMES
INTERVIEWS Ukweli Roach: cast as the lead in BBC One’s new show, ‘Wolf’, he plays Jack Caffery. Shot in Wales, it’s based on the novel of the same name by the late Mo Hayder, with an all-star cast of Welsh talent. This is warming up to be the BBC’s biggest summer drama offering. Beth Nielsen Chapman: Nashville-based singer/ songwriter Beth is appearing at Acapela Studio on August 3rd. It’s guaranteed a fantastic night, and as she told me, amazing pizza! Stephen J Shaw: Writer, Director and Producer of ‘Birthgap - Childless World’. It’s a subject matter probably alien to most of us, yet one that is more important now than it will ever be. Please have a read and then follow up by watching the documentary. Mr Bewlay: Cardiff-based singer/songwriter and ultimate performer, Mr Bewlay is a force to be reckoned with. Articulate, intelligent, talented and a marvel to behold. There are not many artists like him around these days. He’s one to watch out for! Enjoy August. I’m off to Ibiza and then Michigan in the US. Maybe more places, but I’ll see nearer the time. Twitter - @InTheWordsOf_CM YouTube - InTheWordsOf
