After a lengthy battle over licensing the former Empire Club has finally re-opened it’s doors as the Orange Rooms, the first new licence to be issued in almost 8 years. The new venue has had a spectacular 3 floor refurbishment with the Orange Room’s trademark retro chic vibe throughout. Sporting an outside terrace, a unique ‘ski-lodge’ penthouse bar and a basement level club area decked in exposed brick work and aptly named ‘The Bunker’.
The venue is now open for business and serving seven days a week from midday until late. By day punters can visit the American Diner for locally sourced, handmade & home cooked gourmet burgers & hotdogs and with salads & wraps for the lightest of lunches, you don’t need to be a raging carnivore to enjoy the grub. At night the focus shifts to award winning cocktails, expertly crafted by the Orange Room’s in-house mixologists & intoxicologists (their words). The Drinks menu features over forty different cocktails, coupled with an unrivalled premium spirit collection, there’ll undoubtedly be something on offer to tickle your tastebuds.

ROCK REGENERATION September was such a big month for gigs in Bournemouth and unless you had left the area or gone into hibernation you cannot have failed to have noticed everything that was going on.

Party in the Park on the Ashley Cross green was definitely a weekend of two halves with the Saturday producing sunshine with blues skies and the Sunday was full of grey skies with heavy rain showers. Bands of the weekend were by far Empire Affair and The Frequency who both performed like they owned the stage thrilling audiences with their big tunes. The three day Boscombe Community Fair also suffered from the elements and attendances were down on previous years because of this. The large team of volunteers despite this did a fantastic job of making sure things ran smoothly with some great performances coming from acts like Voodoo Vegas, The Sporadics, Mischa & His Merry Man, Fearne and local troubadour Andy Stock who put a local super group of rising stars together especially for the event. The 2013 Oxjam Takeover takes place in Bournemouth on the 19th October starting at 2pm over several venues that will include the Inferno, Sound Circus and The Anvil. There is an abundance of local talent signed up to perform at the event including Mischa & His Merri Men, The Mother Ukers, Aaron Gregory, Tim Somerfield and host of others still to be confirmed. The slogan of Oxjam is ‘local music, global impact’ and that’s exactly what the team of very dedicated people are trying to do. Entry to all the venues can be gained by purchasing a wristband for just £5 which will give you access to all venues participating, go to http://www.facebook.com/ bournemouthoxjam for all the latest news on who is playing where. The event in the past has raised thousands of pounds for the very worthy cause of Oxfam and with every help and support this years should be no different.

Peace, Love & Gloves
Dorset Music Award winners in 2012 Peace, Love & Gloves returned to the live circuit at the Winchester with a typically chaotic gig which included a batch of new songs that really shows some nice progression and growing confidence. If you would like to join their fans the ‘Gloves and Glovettes’ at their next gig you will find them at the Music Box in Salisbury on 25th October with Lyrical Monsoon. Also at the Anvil in September was the return of Draw Me Ugly, a superb local band who most local people won’t of heard of yet. A four piece with some amazing potential and an abundance of great original songs that really inspire, a sort of garage rock band with some tasty funk elements. You can check them out at their next gig at Chaplin’s Cellar bar on the 18th October. Draw Me Ugly

You should all come to see us at a show to see how important a live show is to us, we all thrive on it! Catch Hildamay with Steak Number Eight at live at The Anvil on 1st November

festival round up
The Music team took up the challenge to attend as many festivals as possible this summer! Here are our Festival Round Up reviews! Well it may be a mission to get to and from and it may have rained on us quite a bit but this year’s Bestival certainly cemented Rob & Josie Da Bank’s annual fiesta into our festival calendar. The Isle of Wight based festival reached its 10 year anniversary this year and celebrated with a huge nautical themed party. Potential Bestival-goers take note: Bestivalians take their fancy dress seriously and the Saturday was awash with sea-creatures, mermen, lighthouses, Titanic characters, castaways, fish finger sandwiches and even Ursula the Sea Witch! Very much feeling like Glastonbury’s little brother, Bestival encompasses all that is right with the UK’s festival scene – an eclectic line up; the opportunity to party non-stop or tuck yourself into a secret spot for a workshop or acoustic jam and most importantly an over-arching sense of FUN. The artistic touches make the experience more enchanting and the sense of adventure as you discover a cinema in the trees or a bloomin’ great ship round the corner ensures there’s never a dull moment. We will certainly be setting sail on the good ship Bestival again next year! ZAN LAWTHER I have been meaning to visit Camp Bestival for years, I was only able to make it down for one day but, armed with my trusty 5 year old side-kick, we headed to Lulworth Castle to see just how much we could cram into 8 hours. The answer was, quite a lot indeed. Although we caught a bit of Dan Le Sac vs Scroobious Pip, Labrinth and DJ Fresh the music seemed somehow secondary to the multitude of hands on activities and places to explore, had we arrived sooner we could have signed up for one of a number of workshops run by performers and learned how to dance, juggle or even make instruments out of vegetables. This festival is most definitely aimed squarely at families with children, indeed I would have felt most uncomfortable engaging in the level of er, refreshment that I normally attain at a festival but since I had my son with me this was not a problem. A very happy day was had watching the motorbikes roar round the wall of death and enjoying an indeterminate and wallet destroying number of rides on the helter skelter. Just as it looked like the nipper had finally run out of steam we’re treated to an finalé featuring a light show and projections right onto the castle itself with a cracking good firework display to finish. I can’t wait to go for the whole weekend next year. I’ll leave it to my son to sum up in one word... ‘AWESOME!’ KAI HARRIS
BOURNEMOUTH MUSIC | OCTOBER 2013
Southampton’s Seán McGowan made his début at Glastonbury Festival in June on not one but five different stages at the Somerset bash. Starting with a packed crowd at celebrity hangout, The Rabbit Hole, and finishing with a guest slot on the Leftfield stage singing ‘Rock the Casbah’ with Billy Bragg, Kate Nash and Sam Duckworth, Seán certainly left an impression that should see him cement a place as a regular fixture at Pilton. The Rolling Stones also made their début and, although the likeliness of them returning is pretty unlikely, Mick Jagger and co put in a performance that will go down in legend. Glastonbury is a festival that truly caters for everybody; we met a lady called Jean, in her 80’s, selling merch for Strummerville, who had been coming since day one and she said she had no intention of stopping any time soon. We asked Jean what her favourite part was. “It’s simple”, she said, “it’s the people what make Glastonbury such a special place. There’s somebody from every walk of life here, and they’re all so friendly. I’m already looking forward to next year”. JODIE COPELAND

Celebrating its 18th year in 2013 it’s easy to see how this micro-festival has managed to achieve its coming of age milestone. The support from the local community for this event is palpable and even the questionable weather didn’t dampen the spirits. Showcasing some of Bournemouth’s strongest homegrown talent as well as nationally recognised headliners and a smattering of Boscombe’s most eccentric characters, as ‘tourists’ we felt wholly accepted into the fold and will certainly be returning next year. ZAN LAWTHER
Boardmasters’ setting on a cliff top overlooking the sea in Newquay already sets it apart from your average festival. Attracting bands such as Ben Howard, Everything Everything, Basement Jaxx and Grandmaster Flash this year pushed it up into the big leagues and even better - the weather held out too! Although the main stage does tend to struggle with sound the big tops create a great vibe and when you add in the surfing and BMX competitions you’re not short of things to be entertained by. Until 1am that is, when the festival shuts down, lights out. A night bus ferries late night party goers into town but it’s a bit of a crush and we’re left wanting a little more fun before bedtime. They’re on the right track though and Boardmasters continues to grow every year - we can’t wait to see what they have in store for us in 2014!
JAMES WILLARD
Encompassing all the craziest bits of Glastonbury yet keeping the capacity to a modest 30,000; BoomTown is nestled in the rolling countryside just outside Winchester. It’s certainly not one for the fainthearted – if you want to party, non-stop, for four days straight then THIS IS THE FESTIVAL FOR YOU. If you want your senses battered from all directions by weird, wonderful, at times beautiful and at other times brilliantly terrifying sights and sounds then go, pull on your fanciful costume, douse yourself in glitter and set yourself free amongst the madness. The sheer amount of effort from all involved is what comes together to make BoomTown the full on sensory explosion it is. There’s a theme for everyone as the entire siteis a tangling maze of districts such as ChinaTown, Barrioloco and Mayfair. During the day BoomTown is full of chilled out vibes and relaxed grooves but it’s at night that the party really kicks into high gear. The explosion (and yes, we literally mean EXPLOSION) of Arcadia allows you to party till the small hours to the hard trance and huge beats blasting out of Arcadia, under the watchful eyes of an enormous fire breathing mechanical spider. No, really, that happened! ZAN LAWTHER Beautiful Days does exactly what it says on the tin. I frequent around 5 or 6 festivals every Summer & BD would be my favourite even if I didn’t care for any acts on the lineup! The combination of the atmosphere, lovely location, friendliness & of course the brilliant ale & food options really do it for me. From an artist’s perspective, I’ve always been treated superbly & professionally too. Created by The Levellers (splendid gentlemen) for all the right reasons, easily the most fun you can have in a field! I’d go even if I wasn’t playing & that’s a rarity for me these days!

Just answer this simple question:
Arguably the biggest innovators in commercial dance music since 1990, musical genius Liam Howlett and his colleagues were at the forefront of the rave explosion (‘Experience’), early techno/ trance/dance crossovers (‘Jilted Generation’) and rap/punk,techno fusion (‘Fat Of the Land’). Known for their stunning lightshows and MCing when playing live, The Prodigy will take your brain to another dimension at the Bournemouth International Centre this December, if you’re lucky enough to get hold of tickets that is. Standing tickets are sold out but Bournemouth Music has a pair that you and a pal could be using to dance your little trotters off when The Prodigy roll into Bournemouth.
What was the name of the character from children’s safety films that The Prodigy both sampled and named the song after, way back in 1990?

Black Star Riders kick off their UK and Ireland tour this month and first up is Bournemouth’s very own O2 Academy. A reincarnation of the current Thin Lizzy line up and described as “the next step in the evolution of the Thin Lizzy story” there’s new music and, as you can imagine, an excellent stage show from these legends of rock. Fear not diehard Thin Lizzy fans, Lizzy will still be performing and touring, however in 2012 the band agreed to release their new material as Black Star Riders as a mark of respect for original front man, the late Phil Lynott. Opening up the show and on board the party bus for the entire tour are local hard rockers Western Sand. A long-time favourite on the local scene and with us here at Bournemouth Music HQ, these lads have played relentlessly since their formation in 2008 and brought their old skool hard rock to your stereo with their self-titled EP release earlier this year. Touted as having “a swagger that belies their annoyingly young stance”, you can find out more in our Ones to Watch section overleaf! So, armed with new material from recent album ‘All Hell Breaks Loose’ and fresh from a festivalfilled summer we’re expecting something a bit special from BSR and we caught up with lead singer Ricky Warwick to tell us a little bit more…..
So the album came out earlier this year, it must feel good to be taking it out on the road? Yes it’s great to be finally getting out there on tour! The album has been out for 3 months now, so we are all ready to play these songs live for the next 12 months on the road. Thin Lizzy are known for maintaining a dedicated touring schedule, do you plan to keep up the momentum with Black Star Riders? Yes, absolutely. It’s what we enjoy and ultimately feel where we as a band belong is on the road. How important do you think live shows are compared to recording? It’s a completely different mindset when you are playing live to recording. Obviously in a live situation you get the atmosphere from the audience and you feed off that. Live is where you get to show off as it were, your songs, your musicianship, it’s all about entertaining. When recording the new album you laid down 12 songs in 12 days, how did that work as a creative process? Well, I guess we wanted to try and capture as much live attitude and feel as we could with this record in a studio environment. We basically just moved our live set up into the studio, and Kevin Shirley, our producer, recorded us all playing together as a live band. The only overdubs we did were a few guitar parts and some backing vocals. It was an exciting way to work, but you gotta have your shit together for sure. What do you think sets this album apart from earlier work as Thin Lizzy? Well apart from the obvious factor...that sadly Phil is not with us. We wanted to establish an identity for Black Star Riders whilst retaining the spirit of Thin Lizzy. For example, Scott Gorham is always gonna have that classic Scott Gorham guitar sound and amen to that but we wanted to move forward also and with the name change it took a bit of pressure off us and let us explore any directions we felt we wanted to. What was the catalyst to move away from Thin Lizzy and bring Black Star Riders to life? A number of reasons. Main one being that when it came down to it we just didn’t feel comfortable making a new Thin Lizzy album without Phil. Scott and Brian decided that we should just leave the legacy alone, which we all agreed on. As a fan I think we definitely made the right decision, although at the time there was a lot of soul searching going on and it was not an easy one to make. But it is the correct one. You’ve got Bournemouth local boys Western Sand opening for you on this tour; what was it that sealed the deal with signing them up? Very simple. They are a great band! Is it important to you to support unsigned artists? Yes, it’s nice to be able to help new upcoming talented artists.

Do you have any advice for bands looking to push themselves forward in the industry? Work hard; rehearse a lot; play live as much as you can; write as much as you can; believe in yourself; never take no for an answer and watch ‘Live & Dangerous’ by Thin Lizzy at least once a day!
BLACK STAR RIDERS
ONES TO WATCH
WESTERN SAND Up n’ coming UK rockers WESTERN SAND have been confirmed as the opening band on BLACK STAR RIDERS UK/ IRE tour later this year. The four-piece, southern hard rock revival group from Bournemouth beat off stiff competition to get the slot on one of the most talked about tours of 2013 and they’re hell bent on blazing trails come this November. Frontman/guitarist Tyler Hains enthuses “We’re nervous, excited but more than anything absolutely stoked to be a part of such a prestigious tour. To be sharing the stage with some of the finest musicians in the business is a real honour and we can’t wait for the tour to kick off”. WESTERN SAND have just released their self titled debut EP and it’s a scorcher. 4 tracks of ballsy rock n’ roll with more swagger than jagger and a cheeky glimpse of what this young band have to offer demonstrates what to expect later this year. The new EP sees the four-piece, southern hard rock revival group from Bournemouth take their cue from the likes of Lynyrd Skynrd, Thin Lizzy, Led Zeppelin and Metallica; wrapped up in their own unique vision on the ever popular classic rock genre. This latest tour announcement continues the bands upward momentum; already Western Sand have supported the likes of Nazareth, Reckless Love, Jettblack, The Treatment, Heavens Basement and Voodoo Six. “Western Sand are on a mission and there is no stopping them” - Rock Regeneration
So, big things have happened since we last spoke…..opening slot on the UK/EIRE Black Star Riders tour!! How does that feel? At first it didn’t feel real, it is only sinking in now after seeing it all announced in magazines and across all the social media. So far we have had a great response and are getting some great reviews of our EP so it is all pretty exciting. You guys have worked pretty hard the past few years, was there a particular event that lead to getting this support slot? We were asked to play several shows with Heavens basement early this year. Their agent came and actually caught our set in Southampton and we kept in contact with him. Around the same time we signed a management deal and between our manager and HB agent they got us on the BSR tour. It’s pretty exciting that the tour kicks off in your hometown – is there anywhere else you’re really looking forward to playing? I am really excited to play shepherds bush empire as it is such a prestigious venue. I saw Europe there last year, it is a great venue. I am looking forward to every single show. What’s the best thing about touring? This will be our first proper tour so i guess i’ll have to let you know when we have finished. It will be great getting to see so many new cities and getting to play impressive venues and meeting lots of new people, hopefully making lots of new fans along the way. Are you travelling in a van? Does it have a name? Yes we have a nice dodgy old van. I’m not aware of it having a name, I’ll have to ask it. Who are your strongest musical influences? For me it’s Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Guns n Roses, The Stones, The Doors, Pink Floyd, Lynyrd Skynyrd...I could go on. We all love our classic and hard rock What can we expect from your live show? A lot of energy and a lot of feel good rock n roll! And finally…..if you were a fruit, which fruit would you be? Ermm, Freddie Mercury or Elton John, both of whom are legends. ZAN LAWTHER
