whats appenin’ duck New Year’s Eve at Magna 31st December
7pm New Year’s Eve at the ex-steelworks will be a night to remember. See in the New Year with a delicious three course meal and an open bar. See how much you can drink before the dawn of 2014 is upon us and all our dreams are slashed, as we realise that this year will be the same as every other, disappointing and depressing. Let’s get drunk! At midnight (if you’re still standing, that is) you will be presented with a glass of bubbly to see in 2014 with a toast to the monotony of what lies ahead of us.
Sheffield Christmas Market
15th November - 24th December
City Centre Everybody knows Sheffield City Centre does not have an awful lot to offer, apart from the many pubs and takeaway shops. The Christmas Market draws everyone in with the smell of foreign cuisine, fragrances from objects you’ve probably never heard of but will buy anyway and the possible chance of a sugar overload from the planet sized pick ‘n’ mix stalls. Even if you spent your last £5 on that curry last night, the decorative stalls offer something exciting for everyone to look at and sample. And if you still believe, why not pay Santa a visit in his grotto?
Nearly New Years Party 29th - 30th December
Owlerton Greyhound Stadium Don’t want to be stuck in with the parents again? Or did you invite get lost in the post to that party you’veheard of? Pull your best outfit from the washing pile and enjoy a meal in the restaurant, guaranteed to satisfy you more than a Tesco ready meal. Grab yourself a race card or get comfy in an executive box (who would of thought eh?) and watch the Rihanna tribute, (sorry it’s not the real thing) then onto doing what you do best, drinking and dancing.

Cargo Vs Ryad 31st December
10pm - 10am The Steel City sees a night with a top lineup and twelve solid hours of drinking, it can only be Cargo Vs Ryad. With a venue still to be announced (#WatchThisSpace) the lineup includes sets from the likes of Subb-An, Jack Wickham and Cargo and Ryad Residents. Jack Wickham’s style includes House, Deep House and Deep Techno, whilst Subb-An knows the Sheffield music scene better than any other lad around. There will also be a special set from Adam Shelton, a semi-regular guest of Ryas, who will be treating you to a very special back to back set to take you well into the new year..
MasqueRAVE at Fez 31st December
11pm Kollective presents MaqueRAVE at Fez Club this NYE! The night will include special sets from all the best DJs in Sheffield and beyond. Expect Electro, House and a whole lot more from the likes of Amp Jackers, Tom Frost and Myles Robinson, Wheres North, True Fiction, Five-O, Arshaw, Overt and Tetraplex. With more DJs still to be announced and the night almost sold out this is definitely one of the places to be in the Steel City to see in 2014!
Masquerade Snow Ball at Plug 31st December
10.30pm Welcome in 2014 with an intimate Masquerade Ball of say 1,500 of your closest friends. Plug is renowned for throwing some of the best NYE events that Sheffield has ever seen, which means tickets go pretty damn fast. This year the theme is ‘snow’, so expect beautiful snow-girls (and boys), ice angels and even some confetti. For those of your who get a little hungry on a night out (I know I do!) there will also be a hog roast and a whole lot of mulled wine to keep you going right into 2014.

Eliza Doolittle I first heard an Eliza Doolittle (or Eliza Sophie Caird to be more specific) record a few years ago when she released the catchy “Pack Up”. Then I could have overlooked her, as many probably did, as your average one hit wonder. The song was absolutely everywhere for a few months and then...poof... it was gone; a sure sign of a fluke hit. A few songs later all went quiet from Miss Doolittle and that could have been it... Luckily, it wasn’t and this year the songstress made a comeback with “Big When I Was Little”, the first song from her new album “In Your Hands”. The Student Magazine caught up with Eliza to talk about being a woman in the music industry, writing music and, of course, singing. Hi Eliza, thanks for speaking to us. Oh, no problem. Thanks for having me! Obviously you’ve been in the public eye for some time now. Do you feel that since you’ve come into the music industry as a woman that you’ve been moulded or were you really able to express yourself through your music from the very start? I’m not elastic enough to be moulded. I’m too much of a strong person, in that way no one can tell me what to do. I’m too much of a control freak for that. But I definitely think that there are times when you might have to compromise a bit depending on what you’re looking at. With any business you have to think through different choices and maybe make slightly different choices to what you’d imagine. Things aren’t always exactly how you plan them. Yeah, because obviously you’ve got a lot of girls, and young girls, looking up to you and you’re not one of these semi-naked popstars, you’re a singer. Is that a choice you made from the start? Do you know what? I never really thought about it to be honest with you. I’m quite a free-spirited person. I don’t mind seeing people naked. When I’m on my own in my house I’m pretty much naked all the time. (Laughs.) There are just some things that I wouldn’t necessarily do and some I would. I think it’s just important to be yourself no matter whether you’re butt naked or fully clothed. Brilliant. What do you see yourself doing music wise in the future? Will you be touring again soon or just taking a breather for a while? I’m hoping that I’ll get some tour dates in in the next year. At the moment I’m just getting people to hear the record and trying to spread the word as much
page #10
as I can, but I’m also working on new stuff. I always want to just keep the ball rolling. Are you quite a prolific writer then or do you write just as the mood takes you? I think it’s always got to be when the mood takes you, because if you’re not inspired then there’s no point writing. Also at the same time I try to write like a song a week just to keep my juices flowing, even if it’s not the best song. What’s your own favourite track on “In Your Hands”? I don’t know, because I wrote over a hundred songs for this able, so all of the ones that made it are my favourite. Definitely every song means a lot to me, but on every song there will be certain things and when I wrote them on that day they meant more to me. I think “In Your Hands” is quite a strong one for me, that’s partly why I named the album after it, because I was very vulnerable when I wrote it and I don’t feel like that hardly ever, so I think it’s important to remember that. It means a lot to me that one and remembering your low points, instead of your high points. And also “No Man Can” , that kind of represents how I want to live, so if I had to pick one it’d be “No Man Can”. You changed your mind during your answer then! The thing is with the album I’ve ended up loving every single song. Like I also love “Wasting Time” and “Walking on Water” is a love song, you know, it’s one of those love songs that just came straight from my heart and it’s also sad for different reasons. And then there’s also... you see I’m going to end up naming every single song. On this album there’s also a real battle between my optimistic side and my pessimistic side. There’s songs like “Team Player”, which is all about positivity and wanting to give love a chance and then songs like “Don’t Call it Love”, which is like “fuck this, I can’t do that any more”. There’s a real story within all of the songs and without one of the songs it might not tell the full story. What advice would you give to young people wanting to get into the music industry? It’s more about letting music get into you and have no other option but to be a musician and do what you’re doing. And if you’re writing all the time and gigging all the time people will eventually take notice and if you’re good they will take more notice.
Eliza Doolittle’s latest album “In Your Hands” is available now.

The band who sing about pushing people down the stairs, a sentiment after my own heart, are this year on a tour of epic proportions. From Europe to America and then over to Oz, the band are jet-setting around the globe to bring the sound of Scotland to every corner of the globe. We like them. We like their accents. We like their music. We spoke to Grant Hutchinson, who beats the drums, about things. How are you finding the tour so far? How was New York?
Which do you prefer Birmingham or Sheffield? Oh come on!! You can’t make me answer that! (Sheffield)
This US tour was really great. It was extremely long and quite exhausting and I certainly feel older for it but it was great fun. New York was incredible. Webster Hall is such a great venue and to play two nights there was really special.
What is your favourite book? Birdsong by Sebastien Faulks
What made you decide to embark on such an epic tour?
What’s your favourite poem? Dulce Et Decorum Est by Wilfred Owen
It was really just because the tour with The National came in at the same time as our own tour was planned. Also going to the US is not a cheap trip so you really have to make the most of it when you're there and this time we decided to hit every corner! There were a lot of places we hadn't been for a long time or hadn't been at all and we wanted to visit those places before it was too late.
What are you doing for New Year’s Eve? No idea! I try not to plan anything if the band are free because so often it ends up being an anticlimax. I will definitely have a cider in hand though! What can we expect from your Sheffield gig?
What inspires your lyrics?
Six sweaty bearded Scottish men playing their hearts out on stage. Again I think the most important thing any band can do live is to be themselves. We treat every single show the same and never ignore the fact that that people have chosen to see us over many other bands touring right now so we always want to give them the best show we can. We will also have confetti, backing dancers and inflatable props.
That's really a question for Scott but I can give some kind of answer! Initially the lyrics were very personal but with the last record Scott opened out his scope to include other people's lives and I think that really worked well considering the writing process for the music was more collaborative this time round. What are you aiming to do with your music? What's the message?
What makes you happy? Right now being at home makes me happy because it doesn’t happen very often and it means I get to see my nieces.
I don't think there's a message we're trying to convey but if there's anything people do take away from it, hopefully, it is that the music is very honest and we're not trying to be anything other than ourselves. That's an important thing for younger bands to remember. Holding on to your identity is really important and unfortunately these days that seems to be getting lost along the way with a lot of artists.
What makes you sad? Seeing other people who are sad. What will you be doing post-tour?
What is the best gig you've had so far in your career?
I plan on putting on my pyjamas and playing my PlayStation for two months. I also need to finish watching Breaking Bad so I’ll get that dealt with too.
My favourite gig is still one we played at Queen's Hall in Edinburgh at the festival a few years ago. It was one of those nights where everything just clicked and the crowd were incredible. It's a night I will never forget.
What are your plans for 2014? Album no 5. page #17

Creative Look: Hand Of I think it’s fair to say there’s not a massive creative scene emanating from Crookes at the moment, however that could all be changing with the help of innovative group Hand Of. We catch up with Louise Snape, the brain behind Hand Of to tell us more... Tell us a bit about Hand Of. I wanted to put on a night of electronic music and performance art which was more accessible than the usual chin-strokers sat behind laptops. I also had an idea to make a film night where short films were projected onto the ceiling and guests would watch, lying down on a huge mattress with cushions and blankets. I decided I needed to make a kind of umbrella organisation with which we could put on all kinds of events, for all sorts of people! What events have you put on so far? We’ve done quite a lot over the last few years now. The film night I mentioned, Ceiling Club. Some electronic music gigs at Portland Works, some acoustic gigs too. Comedy nights and Garden Institute of course. I’m particularly proud of a production of a ballet for electronics, The Illustrious One, which was performed at S1 Artspace. I came to Garden Institute and loved it, will there be another one? I’m very glad you did! I’ve received glowing reports which has been really lovely! I think people in Sheffield are used to having lots of gigs and club nights to go to in and around the city centre, but there is rarely anything grass roots and lo-fi, yet good quality going on in the suburbs. There will most certainly be more! What have you got coming up? As well as Garden Institutes, we’re going to be doing our biggest project to date in 2014. This time it’ll be an exhibition and performance involving a Brass Band, electronic music and film. And we’ll be lucky enough to work with some more composers, as well as a film maker and a photographer. Keep and eye out, it’s going to be grand! page #22

The pouting 21 year old singer that is Findlay hails from over the Snake Pass in the depths of Manchester. She lists Beat poets as her influences, wears PVC crop-tops and writes her own songs. She speaks in a broad accent and digresses on occasion. She is many things that are indescribable here. She is an artist, these days, so we spoke to her about that. Hi Findlay, let me first ask what your musical influences are. How would you describe your sound? That’s a really hard question actually. I don’t know how to describe my sound because it’s such a mash up especially the last single, but it’s a kind of mash up of different sounds. Especially the Greasy Love track has RnB and rock and other weird stuff all blender into one. I don’t really know how to pinpoint what I would say. The stuff I was doing before was more like straight forward band stuff, which I love doing as well, but I’m trying to like push myself creatively to, you know, create a new sound, which has been fun up until this point. (Laughs) You’ve been gigging a lot recently. What do you enjoy about performing live? What goes through your head before you step on stage? Usually like “Why am I doing this to myself again? I’m so nervous, I’m gonna be sick.” I, honestly, I get really bad before and then as soon as I’m starting the first lines of the first song I get into it. So after a while do you relax into it and start to just really enjoy it? The more shows you do I think the easier becomes. If you’ve not done a show in ages and it’s packed full of people you’re like “Shiiiiit! What am I gonna do?”, but it does get easier. But then I still get as nervous now as when I was like fifteen. Is that how long you’ve been performing then? Since you were a teenager? Yeah well I used to play like open mic nights around Manchester. Just me and an acoustic guitar. And then I thought I don’t want to be one of those singer songwriters with an acoustic guitar because the markets saturated. So I went and wrote a load of songs that had a band sound and found a band and started playing with them. Do you write all of the songs for the band then? Yeah. Yeah yeah yeah and I’m doing co-writing as well with a few people. I really like doing collaborate things. I think you need the other person to get involved in your ideas. When you write by yourself you always end up being too hard on yourself. When you’re with another person they’re like “Actually, no, that is really good.” Yeah, I think it’s just good to have someone to bounce off sometimes. page #24
Yeah exactly, I think it’s more like enjoyable and a creative way of writing and making stuff. It’s just nice. I’m not really a lonely person. I’ve always got to be with someone. What advice would you give to anyone trying to make it? To young aspiring artists? Don’t read bad reviews. Don’t read YouTube comments. Don’t drink too much before a show. Be nice to people because you never know who’s going to want to help you out. I read that you’re a big fan of literature and poetry. What’s your favourite book? I think Portrait of Dorian Gray. It’s just a classic. It’s like, I love that book so much. For the time it was written as well, it has so much, all the morals within the story, you know. Tell us about your new EP. Th new EP, the “Greasy Love” EP that’s coming out this month, is much more... I’ve tried to push myself much more. It’s a bit different, a bit experimental. Before I put any songs on an album I want to experiment and see what people like. What can people expect from your live show? How do you come across live? My live gigs are getting a bit more crazy, I think, every show. We’re experimenting with different sounds as well. We’re getting this guy in, he’s going to trigger the bigger samples, the bigger drum beats. Just a bigger like more full sound. Findlay’s second EP “Greasy Love” is out now. page #25

in my music as well. As a writer, my main inspirations come from my own experiences and feelings. A lot of the topics I touch upon in my tracks are either from real situations that I have been in or am currently in, or a situation that people can easily relate to. Who filmed, edited etc. the Settle Down video?
It’s no rarity to find great musicians hailing from the Steel City, in fact there is a grand tradition of this city putting out artist after artist of high quality. Sheffield born and bread Conor Merrison, AKA Just Seppy, is latest in a very long list. His latest single “Settle Down” has already had over 4000 views on YouTube and his plans for 2014 are well underway. We caught up with Conor himself for a quick heart to heart. How long have you been making music? Since the age of 14! I got myself my 1st edition of FL Studio 3 and was hooked on making beats! Every day I’d come home from school and make a fresh beat, I’d then write lyrics and try and put them together! seven years later and here I am! What inspires your music and lyrics? My musical inspirations come from various artists that I like to listen to, my top producers being Timbaland, Pharrel Williams and Ryan Leslie, I love how their tracks are very percussive and melodic, it feels like they put a lot of thought into the process of making their tracks and as a producer I try to emulate that
My latest video Settle Down (search that on YouTube haha!) was filmed and edited by the media group “Fidzcam”. Three local lads from Sheffield who are doing really well for themselves filming artists. I sat down with them during the editing process and helped to put forward my ideas and influence and was blew away by the end product! Do you play anywhere in Sheffield? I have played a number of places yes, I’ve played at Plug, The Frog and Parrot, Replica. I’ve also played at bigger events at the O2 in Sheffield and also at the Tramlines Festival for a couple of years running. What is next for you musically? For me the next step is to bring out my next project some time in 2014 (date to be confirmed). The project which I’m calling “To Be Continued” will be my best work to date and will aim to be a true reflection of not just me as an artist, but the listener will also get an insight of me as a person as well. Can’t wait to bring it out! What is the big goal? If I could then I’d love to make a living from music, even if it was just to pay the bills and a little extra, it would be the best job in the world for me. I love being creative and making people feel good when they listen to my music and because I enjoy doing that so much I wouldn’t even consider it as being a job!

Just Seppy
Who have you written music for in the past?
Singer Songwriter Helen Boulding is one of Sheffield’s many success stories. Starting her career in the Steel City as a teenager, Helen has worked with some of the best artists of our generation and herself contributed honest and powerful songs to the industry. We caught up with her.
Rick Wright from Pink Floyd, before he died. I’m just working with The Overtones at the moment. Mary-Jess Leaverland, who won the Chinese show “I want to sing to the stars”, she was at Sheffield Uni and in her second year they sent her to China because she was doing Music and Chinese. While she was in China she entered the competition and won it in front of 70 million people. Paul Van Dyk, I’ve got a track coming out with him.
When did you first start out as a singer? Well I always wanted to sing. I wanted to sing properly and have it grounded, but I think, obviously, listening to records is the best way. My dad was reading a magazine one day and he read about this guy who had Elton John and everybody. And so I wrote to him and he said he didn’t really take people who weren’t already in the industry, but I really badgered him and he said “Well come down.” I was only fifteen... sixteen at the time and I just played him a song I’d written and he said when he heard the whole package he thought “Ah, actually I’m going to give her a shot.”
That’s such a long list! What inspires you to write? Just experience. Just life experience really. I love music and I love melody and when I sit down at a piano I seem to get a melody and the lyrics, maybe I think about them a little bit more, by my melodies come very quickly. Tell us about your new single “Crooked Tooth”.
So where did you go first from there? Was there a lot of prep work?
I wrote that with Gavin Clark, who’s in Unkle. Well “Crooked Tooth” is one of my favourite songs on the album, but is that thing about you know when you really love someone warts and all and only they will do? It’s that kind of thing, like the imperfections are the perfections. It was a metaphor for that really.
There was loads of prep work, because what was happening was I kept doing demos and I was working with a load of different producers. I kind of ended up going round the houses quite a lot, before I actually got to release my first record. The hardest thing as an artist is to decide what you’re not as opposed to what you are.
The single “Crooked Tooth” is out this month! page #29

FASHION Christmas Crisis or Christmas Couture? Lauren Spencer
We all know it can be hard to have your own individual style on a student budget, let alone keep what clothes you do have clean. Each year, you might of hated getting the knitted Christmas jumpers that smelt of old people and were either too tight or a sack on you. Nowadays, flaunting Santa or a giant Christmas pudding on your chest is the way to go as more colourful and (slightly) more fashionable jumpers are delivered to shops. You’re old enough and (maybe) wise enough to shop for yourself these days, so why not stick to the Sheffield heritage and pay a visit to Birds Yard and sample unique and one-off items from the UK’s Fashion Shop of the year. Celebrate your individuality this Christmas with the affordable and quirky designs from DazaRockz or the original patterns of Rita Manita.. COUTURE STYLE but walking around in a light up number is not
acceptable even on a good day…you are not trying to resemble a Christmas Tree bauble. CRISIS Snow is coming, we’ve all seen the updates while stalking Facebook 24/7. So vests and flip-flops will result in a trip to A&E (boys I mean you too). The single digit temperatures still haven’t stopped the hawaiin shorts and unecessary bearing of too much skin. CRISIS Take the plunge into vintage style for a pair of old school boots or a 1980’s fur coat, itis affordable and guaranteed you’ll find something nobody else has. Knuf, Ecclesall Road will have trendy people looking for items from their past favourite pop groups, enjoying each visit in the cosy atmosphere and taking in the eccentric decoration and layout, similar to that of Cow and Bang Bang, Sheffield City Centre.

Sheffield ‘Christmas Markets’ There is nothing quite like spending the days in the lead up to Christmas browsing Christmas Markets, eating over-priced chocolate covered strawberries and drinking mulled wine in a make-shift tavern. There is nothing quite like it in Sheffield, that is, because frankly the Christmas Markets here are a joke. You’ll have to forgive me, because I come from Birmingham and am used to a certain standard of Christmas Market. I get that Sheffield is a slightly smaller city and that, therefore, the markets are likely to be slightly smaller too. Slightly smaller doesn’t even begin to cover it though. Recently my boyfriend and I decided to spend a day looking round the Christmas Markets. In any other of the UK’s major cities this would have been a reasonable day out. Hell, in some of the cities you could entertain yourself for two days with the wonders of their markets. So, holding hands and skipping gleefully, we made our way down to Fargate, where the ‘markets’ had been set up. To our disappointment we found a handful of stalls, some of them in no way related to Christmas, and a rather shabby looking Santa’s Grotto. We spent about ten minutes looking at the stalls, none of which were particularly interesting, We then decided to take a tram to Meadowhall to be shoved around by hoards of shoppers, most of which had pushchairs to attack us with. What is it about Sheffield? Why can this city not do one single thing right? We are promised a Christmas Market and we get a shambles. As though its not bad enough that the city centre lacks most of the well known high street shop, Sheffield can’t even pull off a market properly.
Weirdly Wonderful: Peanut Hottie One day someone somewhere thought, “You know what this world needs? A peanut butter flavoured hot drink.” So they made it. They made it and they called it Peanut Hottie.... A little after this a jar of Peanut Hottie somehow ended up on The Student Magazine’s desk and so we tried it. Two of us tried it by mixing it into our coffee... that was an awful idea and we can confirm that Peanut Hottie and coffee is one of the worst things we have ever tasted in our lives. However, one sensible officey type person tried Peanut Hottie the way it was meant to be tried, with hot water. She said it tasted good and it smelt like M&m’s, which is probably a good thing. If you like Reece’s (anything) then you will very probably like this... If not, stick to the hot choc...

The Cotton Wool Diet Mmm. I am hungry. Can’t wait to wrap my smackers round a nice fat ball of cotton wool... Wait what?!? Yes, it’s time for yet another stupid and potentially dangerous fad. To be fair this nonsense has been around for a while, but has recently been revived and hyped all over the USA... Girls eating cotton wool so as to replace food and lose weight... genius. Apparently these young, impressionable and, yes, stupid girls are copying supermodels (who as we all know are the best of all role models... it’s in the name really) and adding cotton wool to their diets. The thought of eating cotton wool literally makes me heave. Apparently the way to do it is to soak the cotton wool in juice before you swallow it (still gross). I shouldn’t really have to write this, but let’s pretend you’re likely to start eating cotton wool, don’t do it! Eating cotton wool is extremely dangerous. 1) You can choke. 2) The human body cannot digest cotton wool (shocker!) 3) If you eat cotton wool I will personally come and hit you in the face.
Hospital Food
A report put together by Sheffield Council’s health scrutiny committee found that the food in Sheffield’s hospital was of a good standard. The group tried a variety of different meals, all of which would be served within Sheffield’s hospitals and were satisfied that the standard was pretty damn good. However, the report said the hospitals could do better, perhaps by introducing better trolley systems, which would allow patients to choose meals from their beds. The report also said that more could be done to inform people about the services available to them. All in all, though, Sheffield’s hospital food is tasty good... good to know. page #43
drink
So hospital food is meant to be rank. Well, apparently the food in Sheffield hospitals is “very impressive”, which is good news if you are accident prone.

Hey Ryan! How’s the UK been treating you? Absolutely Incredible – it’s been a great 48 hours so far. Amazing time to come over though with your music doing so well. Yeah, we couldn’t have timed it better. We planned this three or four weeks ago so the timing of it is impeccable! To be here, and to be number one with ‘Counting Stars’ is awesome What’s been the most surreal moment during your time over here? The most surreal moment for me was when we got off the plane, I went to customs and didn’t have my work permit or anything. The customs lady says – that new song - I just can’t get it out of my head - and then she said - just go ahead go, through! No way… she just let you through without a work permit because she likes your song!? Yep, crazy! When we got to our hotel we dropped our bags and walked outside around the corner to a pub – it was like 9.30pm, we sit down with our beers and four guys walked past us and said ‘hey congratulations on being number 1!!’ (in a rubbish English accent)
The band that sing songs about drowning and simultaneously feeling alive. The band that have dominated the charts and airplay for the past month or so. The band that you just cannot get away from (no matter how much you may want to.) Capital FM’s Adam O’Neill interviewed the band:
One Republic.
That’s nice! I reckon guys usually think they are too cool to do stuff like that. I saw the picture of you all on twitter and you lot just looked like a hot extended band. Yeah two of the guys were from Manchester and they were at our last show. We played Manchester six months ago and they were at that show – and the others were from London. I’m not going to even try and do a Mancunian Accent! You’ve worked with and written for some incredible people… Leona Lewis, Adam Lambert, Kelly Clarkson, JLO… I wanna know what it was like to work with someone like Adele who you’ve also written with. Because she is one of the people in music that is so private, she separates work from her personal life. What is she like in the Studio? She is really down to earth – usually the first two hours are spent chatting about kids, life, restaurants, gossip – you name it. There is nothing pretentious about Adele. She has sold 30 million albums – she knows what she has done, knows what all the figures are but compartmentalises it and doesn’t dwell on it. She loves pop music too – whether it’s Bruno or Beyonce. She was one of the first people to congratulate me on Ellie Golding’s single burn (which he produced)
page #40
Ok I’m going to ask you some random questions about Beyonce because I love her… What does she wear in the studio? She is still naturally gorgeous without make-up but chilled down. She doesn’t wear 9-inch stilettos! Still looks cool as but chilled out. Random and weird but what does she smell like? Doesn’t she own a perfume? I’m pretty sure that is what she smells like. You think she wears her own perfume? I would It’s a bit cringe though – a bit like making love to your own music. Have you ever done that? If one of our songs came on during that moment – my wife would start laughing and say ‘I can not proceed until you switch to another station!’ Thank you so much Ryan… see you next March when you’re back here on tour!

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug released 13th December As the second in the triolgy, people have high expectations from Jackson once again. The cringy singing and attempt to add in unnecessary humour in “The Hobbit: The Unexpected Journey” did not go unnoticed by viewers. Although slow (very slow), still an epic creation. Having survived the beginning of their unexpected journey (only just), the Company continues East, facing along the way the skin-changer Beorn and a mass of giant Spiders (rather them than me), in the deceitful forest of Mirkwood. Biblo Baggins, Wizard Gandalf and thirteen Dwarves (unlucky for some, especially in this film) go on their quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor. They must face a creature more terrifying than any other, no, not Golem, but the Dragon Smaug. If you happen to be a millionaire and can afford the 3D prices to wear smudged, ‘Where’s Wally’ type glasses, I’m sure ths film will not disapoint once again. Just make sure you have a bladder of steel and plenty snacks as you’ll need to get comfy for this two and a half hour film.
FILM page #44
Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues released 20th December This film has been long awaited by younger (and older) viewers, each having uttered the words “I would like to extend to you an invitation to the pants party”. Every comedy fan enjoys a joke being taken too far, especially when it involves sex and silly moustaches. TV’s funny man Will Ferrel returns to the role of Ron Burgundy, joined by equally funny Steve Carell, Paul Rudd and Christina Applegate in this not for the boring, stern faced viewers out there. With the ‘70s over, Ron Burgundy returns to the newdesk, joined by the rest of the gang, to take New York’s first 24 hour news channel by storm. All Anchorman fans know this sequel has a lot to live up to, the magic from the first film has to be there once again. The laugh out loud and “I’m not sure if I laughed so hard I let out a little wee” type of magic has to occur. Come on everyone…“Don’t act like you’re not impressed”.
American Hustle released 13th December As Christian Bale takes a night off from saving the world as Batman and Bradley Cooper has finally got over his hangover, they go back in time to one of the most outrageous scandals to rock the nation. This tells the story of con man Irving Rosenfield (Christian Bale), who along with his seductive and devious partner Sydney Prosser (Amy Adams) is forced to work for FBI agent Richie DiMaso (Bradley Cooper). They are then thrown into a world of Jersey powerbrokers and mafia that’s as dangerous as it is enticing. Irving’s wife (Jennifer Lawrence) could be the one to bring the whole world smashing down. Not many are into Oscar-style acting or cinematic storytelling, but the trailer is worth a watch to at least try and grab even the most unimpressed’s attention. Even if you only watch to see Bradley Cooper wearing pink curlers and pulling off a suit (as always), but sorry girls (and guys), the only thing Christian Bale will be sporting is a beer gut and an old man’s combover. page #45
Bad Santas As we all know Santa is a lovely, generous man who gives gifts to good children in the festive season, right? WRONG. Sometimes Santa is bad... sometimes he is very very bad...
Santa robs a bank to ‘pay his elves’ In 2009, Tennessee, a man dressed as Santa held up his local bank. Why? To pay his elves, of course. No, this isn’t a terrible joke, but actual real life. On 22nd December 2009, just three days before he was supposed to be delivering all his presents to good little boys and girls, Santa walked right into SunTrust Bank, Tennessee, where he pulled out a gun and proceeded to hold up the bank. Witnesses say that the man was quite jovial, as you might imagine Santa to be, as he took off with the money. Whilst he was asking a cashier to fill his red sack with dollar, the man smiled and explained to many a onlooker that he needed he money to “pay his elves”. With his sack full of presents for himself (and his elves, obviously) Santa fled the building and made off in a grey car. Presumably his reindeer were busy doing something else that day.
Date Rape Santa If Santa gave you a free drink, I’m betting that you’d probably drink it wouldn’t you? Well, if you happened to be in Berlin Christmas 2011 that would have been a big mistake. A man dressed as Santa (or possibly the real Santa, who knows?) was seen at Berlin’s Christmas markets giving out free drinks to passer-bys. The drinks contained a potent date rape drug and people who drank it began to vomit with some losing consciousness. Oh Santa, why you gotta be so naughty, huh?
Santa the Flasher I’m guessing you probably don’t want to see Santa’s sack and, for that, I don’t blame you. However, if you happened to be in Salem in 2005 you may not have had a choice. A 52 year old man dressed in full costume (or his work uniform?? - I’m so on to you Santa...) walked into a shopping centre in Rockingham Park, Salem, only to drop his trousers and flash to a whole host of shoppers. The naughty naughty man was escorted out of the shopping centre and charged with disorderly conduct. Tut tut... He will be getting a lump of coal this year.

Colour Coded From the plain and simple to the extravagantly bold, we find and use colour in every single aspect of our everyday lives, and have done for the majority of the past century. It is something that in the modern day context we take very much for granted, especially as not an awful long time ago we didn’t have such a rich palette of colour to experience or to work with. Honouring the fantastic and surprising history of colour, the ‘Colour Coded’ exhibition (recently opened in June this year at Sheffield’s Weston Park) is a real celebration and appreciation of the continual human desire to capture and use colour in the most beautiful and intriguing ways possible. The exhibition is compiled from collections of Sheffield art, that take you on a historical and scientific journey through the chromatic ages, from the Victorians and their world famous flamboyant fashion pieces, to the present and uses of colour in contemporary pieces by the finest of abstract artists, such as Patrick Caulfield (whose bright and bold pieces capture exactly how colour can be so enchanting in everyday life). Also amongst the cluster of visual treats is the work of Royal College of Arts graduate Ella Robinson, a must see when visiting. She collates found objects in which she transforms into the most wonderful material sculptures out of many different rich and vibrant colours. Colour coded is on display at Weston Park until 26th of January, so make haste to pay a visit soon. The need for some of the bright, the bold and the exciting may be in short supply and high demand this winter! Jack Greenwell

Guilty Pleasures
Adam Pigott I have a confession to make to my girlfriend; I’ve been in the throes of a passionate love affair behind her back. It’s my dad’s fault. He introduced me well over twenty years ago. It’s been going on for most of my life and will continue to do so, through thick and thin, for the rest of it. The name of my guilty pleasure? Sheffield Wednesday Football Club. The pride of Sheffield (ignoring for now the noisy neighbours from the other side of the city). So imagine my chagrin when I set off into town one day in search of the big game only to find bar after bar showing nothing but the Liverpool match. One pretty well known drinkery on Division Street must have had about twenty-five TV’s all showing the same thing! Now I understand that Liverpool are a big club in the Premiership, and the student population in Sheffield for whom most of these pubs cater for have possibly barely heard of Wednesday.
But where’s the local pride? What happened to supporting your local team? It took me about an hour to find it. One small TV tucked into a dusty corner of a pub just outside the city centre. The same thing happened about four months later at the start of the new season. Only this time, I was very pleasantly surprised, as I was in Bangkok. I was sat there in the balmy evening heat of Thailand, surrounded by palm trees, emerald Buddha statues and lady boys, watching the boys in blue battle to a draw with local rivals Leeds, all the while wondering how and why it took me the same amount of time to find the match in that glamorous locale, half way across the world, as it did in Sheffield city centre, a comparative stone’s throw away from the sacred ground that is Hillsborough. Globalisation of the beautiful game means it’s almost as easy to watch my team play in South-east Asia as it is at home in the city they are based. For better or worse?

The Gap Ina Fischer We university students tend have a lot of things on our plate. Balancing our evenings between part-time jobs, all-nighters in the library and the occasional piss-up, and budgeting our limited funds can cause an undergraduate a lot of worries. But then there are the other kinds of issues, the pointless ones that seem to rise to great importance for no other reason than the fact that everyone seems to be talking about them. Things like ‘the gap’. The gap? What gap? Don’t you pretend you have no idea what I’m talking about... Yes, the infamous ‘thigh gap’ that gained popularity on Instagram and Tumblr and quickly became the unhealthy obsession of many young women. The thigh gap is a little inwards curve of the upper thigh, right before the bum starts. It most prominently features on the bodies of female models and the pictures of people with excellent Photoshop skills. What’s so special about it? That’s exactly what I would like to know. Upon discovering this new phenomenon, and in the name of journalistic research, I stripped down to my underwear when nobody was watching and – who would have thought – there it was.
Except nobody cares, least of all me. Or my boyfriend, who I’m pretty sure hasn’t ever noticed it. For the majority of the year, said gap is covered by various layers of clothing anyways, but even during the summer months it hardly attracts a lot of attention. The reason for that is simple: it has absolutely no relevance. We’re not even talking about the usual stereotypes of beauty, like large breasts, a firm butt or a beautiful smile. We’re talking about a tiny gap of a few centimetres maximum, between the thighs, right below the body parts that are a lot more important in my humble opinion. Facebook pages like “The Gap” have almost 300,000 followers and every picture posted racks up thousands of likes. All thanks to the gap? I think not. The women pictured are always semi-naked drop-dead gorgeous anyways, gap or no gap. Nevertheless, young girls all over the world seem to be obsessed with the idea of having a thigh gap. A dangerous obsession, especially considering that its biologically impossible for some women to have one, no matter how much they exercise or how little they eat. My advice? Let it go. There are far more important gaps we should be worrying about: the gap between platform and train we are constantly asked to mind, the gender pay gap, or the 10-minute gap between lectures that is long enough for a toilet break or a coffee run, but never for both.
Sheffield’s independent Film – Dead or Alive? Chris Neal It was a sad day in 2010 when it was announced that Sheffield Independent Film (SIF) had gone into liquidation. Being South Yorkshire’s only permanent film studio and an iconic part of Sheffield’s history, it hit us pretty hard. But, I am here to remind you that all is not lost - Sheffield is still the thriving heart of Yorkshire’s independent film scene. There are still several production companies working out of the Steel City, including Warp Films (the studio that produced Dead Man’s Shoes, This is England, and Four Lions) and Picture Palace North (known for Sharpe). In recent years, a branch of Warp Films (Warp X) was even responsible for a slate of low budget films designed to display the talent of new writers, producers and directors. Sheffield
also plays host to several film festivals across the year, such as Doc/Fest; which specialises in bringing together the entire world of documentary film makers, and is a great chance for networking within this section of the industry, and takes place in the summer. Sensoria is a film and music festival that takes place in September, which takes pride in innovation and risk taking. Screen Yorkshire is an organisation based in Leeds that grants funding to creative projects - they have an application process on their website, as well as the ‘Triangle’ scheme, which works to set up writer-producer-director teams, and guides them towards a finished feature film. So get to it Sheffield - whatever your creative passion, get out there and do it. If you need a bit of encouragement, just remember that when Mark Herbert of Warp Films produced Dead Man’s Shoes out of Warp Films’ ‘Sheffield Office’ - that office was the shed in his garden.

How Christmas became Xmas… Lauren Spencer
With Christmas just around the corner you wake up everyday (once you’ve got the courage to step out into the cold) to see if it’s time for the only rational form of transport when snow hits…sledging. From your first day in this world, the days of needing help to go to the toilet (which you may still need today) to growing up today, kind of anyway, Christmas is always an exciting time for most. But apart from finding the biggest piece of paper possible in W H Smith to write your Christmas list, what does Christmas actually mean? I know the word “conspiracy” is a big word for any time of the day, but Micah described features of the Christmas Conspiracy as universality: all nations and people are a part of it, voluntarism: people willingly stream to it and morality: people want to be obedient to “God’s” law. Although perhaps quite hard to grasp, many other conspiracies are part of your life whether you knew or not. How often do you text or type “Xmas” rather than “Christmas” nowadays? To you this may be because you’re too busy or lazy for the written word, or maybe you just prefer the look of “Xmas”. But where did the “X” come from? There is a belief from some that the “Xmas” use came from a conspiracy to remove religion from the holiday, quite deep I know, and also a misconception. Infact, the “X” comes from the first letter for “Christ” in the Greek alphabet’s x-shaped chi. In school I’m sure you learnt about the facts/fiction of Jesus Christ and that he has something to do with Christmas, it being related to, but not actually his birthday. Surely a true celebration of Jesus Christ’s birthday would be to have all the money in wealthy people’s
accounts to be transferred to the poor (which would surely help out a number of overdrafts). Also, anyone who is ill (excluding hangovers) would miraculously get cured. None of that happens now. What does happen is the re-vamping of Santa each and every year; you know the bushy beard and red rosy cheeks you see on the Coca-Cola van come Christmas time. Children (and adults) get giddy over presents and mince pies when they first see the advert on television. Santa was re-invented, (not only for those who still believe in him but for Christmas loving people everywhere) in the 20th Century as a “commercialisation of the holidays” manouver. They wanted Christmas to become a time of huge spending and to make people think it is there duty to do that (rather than the religious duties taught years ago). This puts more attention on Santa (and coca-cola) instead of Baby Jesus. Also in television, the animated show Futurama, set in the 31st Century, which im sure you’ve all watched when you take a 24/7 break from your work, uses “Xmas” as the official name for what was known as Christmas. In one episode called, “Xmas Story”, the actual original “Christmas” naming is said to have become an archaic (something very old or old-fashioned for those who don’t own a dictionary) pronunciation. The BBC (you know, the channel that brings you Eastenders) broadcast a meaning of Christmas: The time has come to separate the religious festival of Christmas from the trading season of “Xmas”. In other words; step outside the classroom and step into the shops (with a working bank card).

Enactus: HomeMade Jam Sheffield is one of the largest hubs for homeless people in the UK, aside from London that is. Whilst a small number of homeless people find refuge in shelters, many individuals are forced to brave the winter on the streets. Getting out of homelessness is a difficult feat, given the destructive and selfcondemning nature of it. One of the biggest casualties for anyone who finds themselves without a home is their independence, the loss of a self-sufficient life. Social enterprise, Enactus, has created the “HomeMade” project, which aims to help homeless people in the Steel City gain independence and an income through making homemade jam, which is then sold to independent retailers across the city. All of the money which is raised from the sale of the jam goes into a fund which helps to financially support the individuals effected by poverty. This enable homeless people to find a new lease of life and work towards a better future for themselves. “HomeMade is a project currently run in Woodhouse, working with homeless individuals currently in temporary accommodation. HomeMade is one of the many social projects we run at Enactus Sheffield, one part of a global social enterprise spanning 115 countries worldwide, all of which are run by university students.” says James Kirk , Director of HomeMade. In order to fund this project Enactus have launched Cloudlive, an innovative new backup system which allows users to ensure the safety of their files. It would simply not be possible to run HomeMade without the support of the Cloudlive project. CloudLive is offering an unlimited cloud backup package for a year for just a mere £20 (usual retail price is £30). If we break that down, that would be less than £0.40 a week.

Driving Safety with Snuff Mill Garages Snuff Mill Garages Sheffield, South Yorkshire, S11 8PL 0114 268 7627 Driving in the winter is a dangerous business. Ensuring that your car is safe to drive throughout the festive period might not be your first priority but it should be. We spoke to Snuff Mill, specialists in car maintenance and repair, to find out exactly what you need to be watching out for. “People forget about Timing belts or cam belt. When they snap they cause hundreds of pounds worth of damage so you should get them checked.” says Paul Miller, of Snuff Mill Garages. This is one of the biggest things people seem to neglect when looking after the maintenance of their vehicles and when the procedure to check it is so simple it really makes no sense to leave things to chance. Another thing people tend to neglect during the winter month especially is checking their tyres and getting them anti-freeze checked. This can prevent many needless accidents and is really essential at this time of year when the roads are icy and unpredictable. “We do a free brakes and antifreeze check.” says Paul. This is something not many drivers know that they can get for free and something they should really take advantage of for their own safety and the safety of others. Snuff Mill are able to offer a variety of car services all of which are guaranteed by themselves. “We pride ourselves on beating any main dealers price.” says Paul.

Blue is the Warmest Color has been one of the most talked about films of this year. Refreshingly, this is not simply because its two lead characters are both women who fall in love with each other. Instead, the controversy has surrounded the fact that the prestigious Palme D’or at Cannes Film Festival was awarded not only to director Abdellatif Kechiche, but to the two leading actresses Adele Exarchopoulos and Lea Seydoux; an unprecedented move, making them two of only three women ever to win the prize. The most highly controversial aspect of this film is the extremely long sex scene, which runs for approximately seven minutes. Once again it is not the fact that it’s two women which has been under scrutiny but rather that the scene is graphic and seemingly uncensored. In fact, it is so realistic that it has been suggested that the scenes were real, which has been strongly denied by everyone involved. That this scene has been at the forefront of discussion about this film is – in my mind at least – a bit of a shame, because other than highlighting the passionate nature of their relationship, there isn’t actually a great deal to say. With all this in mind, I thought there was no way I’d be able to watch this film objectively,
without all my preconceived ideas taking over. Thankfully this couldn’t have been further from the case and as soon as the film started I was immediately swept away by this beautifully shot story of love, loss and obsession. Kechiche’s up-close shots of Adele immediately make us feel closer to her and almost a part of her experience. The chemistry between Adele and Emma is electric and when they’re apart the loss feels palpable and real. The ambiguous ending is not as frustrating as most ambiguous endings tend to be, and is instead truly open to interpretation. This film does not prescribe or dictate: it simply presents a portrait of a relationship, stripped bare and broken down. It is very beautiful, very sad and very rare. What I love about Blue is the Warmest Color is not just that it’s a brilliant film about being gay, celebrated in the gay community and by awards handed out specifically in this area, but that it’s a brilliant film about being in love, celebrated by a much wider audience and by prestigious awards and that it just happens that the two leads are women. This is a film with lesbians in, not a ‘lesbian film’, and that distinction is hugely important.

It also saddens me in the fact that men and women alike, are objectifying themselves to each other. Fitness and vanity are two completely different viewpoints. Fitness is to ensure you keep healthy and maintain your body, as best you can and the vanity, is attracting as much attention as humanly possible. I have no issue with looking after oneself, to feel as best as you can about your self-esteem, but working out to fit the same body ideal as everyone else, is a bit of a cop out. We’re not all the same, we come in different shapes and sizes and we shouldn’t pigeon hole ourselves, into yet even more sub-stereotypes. Instead of spending half your work out time posing for ‘selfies’, why not try doing some exercise, it’s a gym not a photo-shoot. Such activity is sometimes intimidating for fellow gym users and this hinders their experience. A group of muscle clad men/ women flashing the flesh for like’s and retweets, is sometimes a bit too intrusive.
The Rise of Gym Vanity Craig Lomas These days the usually simple task of working out, has become something of a muscle show. A whole plethora of men and women posing in their ‘ripped’ vests, has become the norm and they’re ruining the experience, for everyone else. Groups swarm to fawn over their ripped torsos and bulging biceps, at places such as Virgin Active, unaware they’re making themselves look like utter tools. I guess I’m lucky, in the fact the gym I go to, is full of old folk, losing their breathe pulling just a cup out of the water dispenser. At least I don’t have to have my physique unknowingly critiqued, by all those ‘ripped’ folk. Ludicrous footwear and the lowest cut of vests, appears to be the preferred uniform of choice. For the record if people wanted to see a strip show, they would most likely go to one, stop trying to boost your ego, begging for attention.

The Goldfinch centres around orphan Theo Decker, who is taken in by the rich parents of his friend after an accident which changes his life. Whilst living with the family he suffers with terrible mourning pains for his mother and so holds on to his final link to her, a painting. Things become dangerous when Theo is dragged into a seedy underworld and everything he has ever known is in jeopardy. Billed as a “sweeping story of loss and obsession, of survival and self-invention, of the deepest mysteries of love, identity and fate”, this is sure to be one of the biggest books of the coming year.

book Dear Life Alice Munro
So you’re a thirteen year old girl. You’re the child of rich and ignorant parents. You know everything about sex, positions and taboos, before you’ve even reached puberty. You’re name is Madison and you’re dead. Doomed is the second in this trilogy, which sees Madison work her way through hell after a marijuana overdose. There’s some ambiguity here as to whether Madison is actually dead or simply hallucinating, but I like to think she is dead. The last book saw her pleasure a giant demon woman by climbing up her legs and holding onto her pubic hair, whilst rubbing her. I mean, we seriously can’t wait for this book.
82 and still writing. You’ve got to love Alice Munro... no, seriously, you’ve GOT to love her. Known for her short stories, this lady manages to pack a whole lot of plot into few words as she explores themes of life, death and bizarrities. I like to think of Alice Munro as the Woody Allen of story-writing. Everything from the scenes to the plots to the stilted dialogues scream Allen. Her latest collection entitled “Dear Life” comprises of thirteen stories. Alice Munro recently won the Nobel Prize for Literature. Enough said. Buy it. Read it. Now.

Bridget Jones: Mad About The Bo y Helen Fielding The actual queen of chick-lit, Helen Fielding, is back once again and if you can take anot her dose of Mrs Jones then it migh t just be worth giving this one a read. Many thought th e second in this series, Bridget Jo nes: The Edge of Reason, wrapped up the story nice ly, and it did, but ob viously it didn’t quite satisfy Helen ’s bank account, so here we are ag ain. Bridget is ba ck. Bridget is in her 50’s. Bridget has two children. Br idget is back on the market because, as we all know, Da rcy is dead. Can Br idget still keep up her old insecure antics and roman tic blunders now th at she’s reached a ripe old age? Prob ably.

Asking for it This is my first Christmas at Uni and my flatmates have come up with loads of Christmas activities that they making us do together because it’s so much fun. These include a christmas dinner, a christmas film night, ice skating, basically anything that’s possible to instagram. The absolute worst though, is Secret Santa. I’ve got someone who I can’t stand and I seriously resent having to spend my money on her as well as on a dinner I don’t want and trips that are boring. How can I get out of this and just stay in my room with the door locked?
I am absolutely dreading going home this Christmas, it’s the first Christmas I’ve been home since my girlfriend broke up with me. Our families are friends so I know I’m going to have to see her and she always manages to come round at a time when I’m either in my Christmas onesie or my work uniform (poundland). How can I make her see what she’s missing? James, 21, UOS
Sarah, 22, SHU
Well at the moment she’s only missing whining isn’t she James? What is it about you that she should be missing so much? You’ve got to make yourself desirable again and stop being so pathetic! Swap that Christmas onesie for a sexy Santa suit. Own that Poundland uniform! Who can get cut price, slightly out of date weetos? You can James! If you believe you’re a catch then you’re a catch, but if you’re really that worried then obviously run up to your room and hide when she comes in, silly.
Oh Sarah, lovely, angry Sarah, you are my favourite person who has ever asked for my help in all my time of advice giving. Christmas is a time for Scroogery, resentment, avoidance and passive aggressiveness. Truly my favourite time of the year. Your flatmates sound like terrible people, you should buy your Secret Santa a book about the real meaning of Christmas (I can’t remember what it’s called but it’s a bestseller so you should be able to find it on Amazon) and then shake your head at her until she feels shamed. Sack it all off, lie in bed and eat mince pies until you’re sick. Merry Christmas!

There is no sexier time of year than Christmas. Yes, December is the month where everyone can just cast their differences aside and get busy. Nothing solves a problem like an orgy and this message is reinforced throughout the Christmas period. Enjoy.
The Tree Fairy
Father Christmas
Putting a pretend fairy or angel on top of your Christmas tree is damn boring. I don’t know why anyone would do this when there is a perfectly acceptable sexy alternative to doing so. For this you have to be a lady (sorry guys) and don’t even need a partner.
One of the best things about Christmas is dressing up. I remember when I was a small girl I saw mummy doing a whole lot more to Santa than kissing underneath the mistletoe one night. This gave me an idea (in my adult life, mind) of a good way to spice up my own sex life. For this you will need some mistletoe, a lover (who loves you) and a Santa outfit.
Step 1: Dress up in a glittery costume and fairy wings. You can get these items from most fancy dress stores. Step 2: Be sure you don’t wear knickers... they will hinder the process.
Step 1: Get naked and wait under the mistletoe toe with a candy cane in your mouth . Step 2: Practise your sucking on the festive stick.
Step 3: Climb on top of your Christmas tree and position yourself so that your glittery skirt flows beautifully over it.
Step 3: Have your lover dress as Santa and come down the chimney.
Step 4: As with a pretend fairy stick the top of the tree in your hole to stay in position.
Step 4: If you have a larger lover he may get stuck, but this will all add to the fun and games of this activity.
This should be very satisfying. Spiky good.
Step 5: If you’re in luck your lover will get caught with only his waist down being visible in the fireplace. Step 6: Take off Santa’s trousers (but, obviously, leave on his shoes, bells and all) and have a good old feel of his sack. Then take hold of his candy cane and use
The Christmas Pudding
Remember that old traditional game people used to play with a Christmas pudding? Where they’d put a coin in the baked goodness and whoever found it would have good luck for the rest of the year? Well this tip is much like that game, only instead of slices of pudding you will need lots of ladies. Step 1: Get a neutral person who won’t be involved in the game to insert a chocolate coin into one of the ladies. (As always the more ladies the better.) Step 2: Then mix the ladies up so that even the neutral person doesn’t know where the coin is. A good way to mix up the ladies is to ask them to solve a maths equation. Step 3: Next you, whoever you are, have to attempt to find the chocolate coin with your coin. page #67
You Me At Six
page #68
The Surrey favourites, “You Me At Six”, release their 4th album, whilst still in their teens they continue to cement themselves as a leading UK band and get comfortable touring with 30 Seconds to Mars. Chic talks to lead guitarist Chris Miller about their success over the past 10 years. So, you guys have been together for nearly 10 years now, is this where you thought you would be when you started? Erm, no. I think we’re really happy we’ve been together for so long, it’s spiralled really fast. We’ve actually been together about 7 years, we started when we were like 15/16 and it all kicked off from there. I think when we started we never imagined we would be going this long and I still think there’s a lot of time left in it. How would you say the band has evolved since the beginning? I think we’ve evolved as musicians and songwriters and come leaps and bounds since we first started. I think you can really tell with all the albums and I think as people we evolve really quick aswell. You have to grow up really fast, being on tour and being away from your family for weeks at a time. You are all avide users of Instagram, Facebook and other social media, do you think that has had an impact on the relationship with your fans? Yeah I think social media is a huge thing for fans these days. The way I’ve always looked at it, imagine if you were in a band in the 70’s or 80’s, there was no Facebook or Twitter or anything like that so to advertise you would have billboards and posters. Whereas now you can log onto the site and depending on how many people follow you; like with our band including the 5 members there must be 1 million people. So with a click of button you can tell the million people that you’re playing here. It’s very important and it’s great for the fans aswell because we can connect with them anytime. With that, do you think you’ve got any groupies? I don’t know, not really (laughs). I just think it’s really helpful being in contact with people. One day…? Yeah maybe, we’ll see (laughs) At the minute, can you pick out a highlight of your career so far? Or is there too many? I think for us we all have our own individual ones, but for me, it would probably be headlining Wembley last year. It’s the one we all set our sights on for the past few years, so it was a huge highlight and I think over the next few years I will always have that at the back of my mind. You’re touring Europe and the UK with 30 Seconds to Mars, are you big fans of them? Yeah! We’ve all been listening to that band for the last few years and how good they are at what they do and how cool their lifestyles are. How would you say your new album “Cavalier Youth” is different from your last studio albums? The main difference is it sounds absolutley amazing. We all think it’s the best our band has ever sounded. In terms of songs and the style of songs, we think we’ve really found our own sound this time and we think this it’s really unique to us. In general, a big step up and a step in the right direction for our band. Who are your favourite bands or artists around at the minute? For me, I’ve been listening to a lot of bands like 1975, I’m into that sort of stuff at the minute. I know a few of your bandmates own clothing ranges to express themselves through “other ways than music” as they say, can you see yourself taking up a project in the future? I don’t think I would do anything with clothing, for me I’d like to progress into the world of stuff to do with guitar. So if I ever had the chance I would definitley do something like that.

Aquarius the red nose Aquarian, had a very shiny nose and if you ever saw it, you would even say it glows. That was my way of telling you that everyone’s talking about how shiny your face is looking these days... Someone had to tell you and I am sorry that it had to be The Student Magazine. Sort your face out and get some slap on.
Have you been a very good girl and / or boy this year? Have you done everything right? Have you gone to beddy byes before 9pm every single night? Of course you have because, my dear dear friend, you are a goody two shoes! Luckily for you Santa rewards good girls and / or boys and so this year you will be getting some special gifts!

What rhymes with Gemini? That’s right nothing. But that doesn’t really matter because this month is going to be the best month of your life. Get yourself a onesie and get twerking because this month you’re the Miley Cyrus of Sheffield. You’re on top of the world, the Christmas tree and as many lovers as you could ever hope for!
Do you enjoy sitting on Santa’s lap? Do you enjoy the gifts from inside his sack? Do you enjoy being his little ho ho ho? Do you enjoy his white, white snow? I’m not accusing you of anything, but between you and me, everyone knows what’s going on with you and Father Christmas and, quite frankly, it is filthy.
Libra September 23rd – October 22nd
Scorpio October 23rd – November 21st
“Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way. Oh what fun it is to ride in my ex-boyfriend’s sleigh! Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way. Oh what fun it is to ride on his shaft today, hey!” This is the tune that’s going through your head as you get it on with your ex. Cut it out.... it’s nasty and you are a dirty dirty girl.
You’re a donkey, you’re a donkey, on a dusty road. Behind your back everyone is calling you a donkey. First it was your dad, but now the nickname has spread and all of your friends are using it too. Did you not wonder why people make “ey or” noises when you enter the room? It’s because you ARE a donkey.

Taurus April 20th – May 20th
It was a dark and gloomy night when you first appeared on this here earth. Since then I have felt unsettled by your presence. I am not too keen on you small one and I hope you don’t take this the wrong way but the fates are not keen on you either. This month will bring you devastation and depression. It will bring you sorrow and magpies. It will bring great misfortune.
Ding dong! Merrily you’re high! You’ve taken lots of druggies. Ding dong! You’re up in the sky! You’re taking some more druggies. Fa la la la la! Fa la la la la! Fa la la la la GLORIA is the name you want us to call you. Drugs are dangerous and bad and you need to stop taking them. Talk to Frank FFS.
Leo July 23rd – August 22nd
Virgo August 23rd – September 22nd
Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree... blah blah blah blah blah blaaaah blah! And so on. Basically I think you resemble a Christmas tree in many ways. You have a spiky exterior, you leave a right mess when you’re gone and you’ve had a variety of balls, in different shapes and colours, put on you at one time or another. I hate Christmas trees. Take the hint.
Once upon a time there was a very naughty little Virgo. This little scamp was so bad, in fact, that he and / or she got put on Santa’s naughty list. That little scamp was you, my friend. This year you will be getting a lump of coal for Christmas and you can like it or lump (pun intended) it.
Sagittarius November 22nd – December 21st
Capricorn December 22nd – January 19th
Santa knows everything. He knows that you’ve been bad, not good. He knows what you did last summer in your house-mate’s room with Mark from your Spanish class. He’s seen the video. Everyone has. He knows all about it and now he is pissed. In short Santa’s coming to get you. You better watch out. You better not cry, because there will be no one around to hear your screams.
This festive season you will go to many parties, you will see many friends and family. You will be made to feel rubbish about your weight, lack of achievements and crappy part time job. You will see people that you haven’t seen for eleven or so months and they will be doing better than you. They will rub this in your face and you will have to smile and take it like the loser that you are.

Ruby’s With New Year’s Eve just around the corner and 2014 looming over us in all it’s futuristic glory, it’s time to have a rethink. This coming year do you just want to look the same as last year? Of course you don’t! You want a fresh start, a new you and a new look.
Shellac and Gelish. You can treat yourself to a Shellac manicure (nail file and paint) for just £11, which would usually cost you £14, or a Gelish manicure (nail file and paint) for just £12. If your nails are a bit on the short side, you can even treat yourself to nail extensions for just £22.
What you need is a makeover and, luckily for you, you can have one at a pinch of the price if you take advantage of Rubys January sale. Yes, this January Rubys, on Campo Lane, are having a huge beauty sale which will last from 2nd January for three weeks!

This will set you back just £25, offering a huge discount.
If your hands are looking a little worse for wear and they need a little TLC, then why not treat yourself to a manicure. Rubys offer two of the major brands when it comes to manicures, page #77
Christmas Shopping Lauren Spencer
to be walked into, especially by those going to feed their hangovers or cravings in McDonalds. We know you must have better things to do than shop for your Mum, Dad, 3rd Cousin twice removed (i.e. sleeping or eating your leftover pizza) but try to avoid buying 12 pairs of Santa or Reindeer socks. Most shops do student discount (if you haven’t lost your card yet) so search the sales for those bargains, or settle for a gift voucher to avoid the fake, awkward “thanks I love it”, comments. Even if you do have two left feet for hands, you do have to wrap your chosen presents, the nicer the paper, the easier it is to distract away from your rubbish attempt. If you’re tired of the Christmas lights and warn out from what might feel like an actual days work, don’t worry, the pub is just a walk away.
It’s that time of year again when you need to swap your weekly vodka fund for Christmas presents for those family members you left at home to go off to University (and by presents, I don’t mean the big pile of washing you’ve got stored under your bed). Drag yourself out of bed,if you made it that far and didn’t pass out on the sofa, pull on the nearest (half clean) outfit you can find and head into the City Centre to see what’s on offer on your student budget. While shopping, your main mission is to avoid the hundreds of “sales” people patrolling the main centre. We find pretending to talk on your phone or walking the long (long) way around is the only way to avoid them, unless you want to find yourself with an adopted tiger. We all know Sheffield City Centre doesn’t offer the greatest amount of shops, but remember, if all fails there is a Primark. Not everyone is in the Christmas spirit, so expect

Kid Acne in Winter Group Show This month sees the opening of the Winter Group Show at B&B gallery. The show marks the end of the gallery’s first year in South Yorks and is a chance for you to catch some of the best art around right here in the Steel City. Art will range from sculptures to photography to illustration to animation. Notably you will be able to catch some work from the rather brilliant Kid Acne, the artist behind the new animation mini-series, Zebra Face, which is currently having the finishing touches put to it. The mini-series has been in production for months and is expected to be aired at some point within the new year.
Kid Acne’s art is renowned for its strong imagery, often depicting women and bizarre figures, which can be seen not only on the streets of Sheffield but in graffiti worldwide. You can see some of Kid Acne’s work for yourself in the Winter Group Show. Other artists to take part in the exhibit include James Green, Faunagraphic, Giro Day, Nug, Ged Wells and Emilie Taylor. The show will be exhibited from 12th December until 18th January at B&B gallery, Sheffield. Opening hours are on Saturdays 12-6pm, or book a private viewing during the week.

‘Man Creche’ Meadowhall opens ‘Man Crèche’ – because obviously men are comparable to babies
The Krispy Kreme café played host to this poorly judged idea and was subsequently kitted out with all the things men love, i.e. tasty doughnuts and LEGO to keep their baby-like minds occupied. As if that wasn’t enough the shopping centre management had yet another trick up its sleeve. As we all know too well men love sport, this is their main interest aside from women and beer, which is precisely why Meadowhall staff lovingly arranged for The Sheffield Steelers to come visit their captives and allow them a glimpse of the world outside of their crèchelike prison.
Charlotte Grainger “Meadowhall enjoys being at the forefront of trends and giving our customers what they need.” says Alex Caley, Meadowhall Event Manager. And apparently what Meadowhall’s customers needed this year was blatant gender stereotyping and segregation. On Thursday 5th December Meadowhall Shopping Centre pushed the boundaries of sexism by opening, for one day only, a ‘Man Crèche’, a place where girlfriends and wives could drop off their men whilst they got on with what they do best, shopping, obviously.
I’d just like to leave you on this note... If Meadowhall (or any other establishment for that matter) had opened a crèche for women so that their men could go off and get on with more important stuff there would have been absolute uproar. People would be up in arms about how sexist that is and rightly so. How is it that we defend women to the death, yet will allow sexism when it targets men? Perhaps because sexism against women has been rife for years, whilst men have been somewhat privileged. But come on guys... a ‘Man Crèche’? Really?
Whilst the women were now free to fulfil their gender ideals and ‘shop till they drop’ (preferably for new cooking gadgets, so that they can cook a three course meal for their men once at home), the men were banished to a ‘crèche’ so that they wouldn’t be able trouble the women with their moans and groans at how dull shopping is and how they’d rather be at home doing manly things like watching sport or porn. page#85

謝村獨立電影 – 奄奄一息 還是絕處逢生？ Chris Neal 2010年謝菲爾德獨立電影（SIF）的破產消 息令人心痛。作為南約克郡唯一常駐的 電 影室和謝菲爾德歷史的里程碑，這樣的結局 令人難以接受。但是壞消息中的好消息是， 謝菲爾德依然是約克郡獨立電影的堅實中心 地帶。在謝菲爾德之外依然還有很多電影製 作公司，包括Warp Films（代表作有Dead Man’s Shoes, This is England, and Four Lions）。近年來，一系列旨在為有才華的編 劇、製作人和導演提供機會的低成本製作，
全都歸功於Warp Films的子公司(Warp X) 。謝菲爾德依然是許多電影節日的主辦城 市，例如Doc/Fest（紀錄片電影節），一個 把世界各地的紀錄片製作者聚集到一起探討 交流的節日，一般在夏天舉行。Sensoria在 9月舉行，是一個音樂電影節，以其創新和 冒險精神為榮。總部位於利茲市的Screen Yorkshire則為創意性項目籌納資金—在官 網上可以找到申請表格，并找到“三角計劃” 的相關信息。“三角計劃”幫助組合編劇-製 作人-導演隊伍，并引導隊伍合作完成主題拍 攝任務。準備好了嗎謝村 – 不管你的創意在 哪方面，現在就開始行動。如果你需要一些 鼓勵，那么我可以告訴你，當年Warp Films 的Mark Herbert拍攝Dead Man’s Shoes的 時候所用的“謝村辦公室”其實就在他自己的 後院里。

色彩编码 数十世纪以来，从单一简单到夸张大胆，我们的生活中充斥着各种颜 色。对此我们已经习以为常，事实上，在不远的以前，我们的色彩世界远没有 如今这么丰富多趣。 为了纪念颜色的进化史，一场名为“色彩编码”的展览（6月份在Sehffield West Park）舉辦，將展現人類數世紀以來如何努力捕捉色彩并充分發 揮想像將其應用于各個領域，是一場對色彩的膜拜典禮。這場展覽屬於 Sheffield Art藝術收藏的一部份，從維多利亞時代的奢華時尚到如今藝術 家們（例如Patrick Caulfield，他的作品表現出色彩在我們的日常生活 中的微妙應用）對色彩的細膩運用，將會帶你經歷 一場彩色時代的科學之旅。 “色彩編碼”藝術展覽將於1月26日結束，地址Weston Park，心動不 如行動！這個冬季，大膽刺激的色彩將大行其道！ 在這場視覺盛宴中，你還能欣賞到，畢業於皇家藝術學院的Ella Robinson的作品，不容錯過。她擅長于對天然藝術品的雕琢，從 其中的多樣色彩重新塑造出令人讚歎的藝術雕像。

罪愉悦
Adam Pigott 我需要向我的女朋友坦白一件事，我背着她一直 疯狂迷恋着别人。都是我爸爸的错，是他20多 年前介绍给我的。这种迷恋持续了我的大半辈 子而且将进行到底，风雨无阻。那个“别人”叫什 么？谢周三足球俱乐部。谢菲尔德的骄傲。（请 忽略隔壁传来的倒喝彩声）。 所以你知道当我有一天出门出酒吧打算看场球 赛，却发现每一间酒吧都在直播利物浦的时候 有多懊恼了吧。Division St上的一家酒吧有大概 25台电视，竟然都在直播利物浦！好吧我知道 利物浦在英超联赛的时候很抢眼，我知道谢村的 童鞋没几个听说过谢周三的，可是我们的本土自 豪感哪去了？大概一个小时后，我终于在市中心 一家蹩脚的小酒吧里铺满灰尘的角落里找回了这
份自豪感。 四个月后新赛季刚开始的时候我又遇到了同样 的事。不过这一次我意外地小惊喜了一下， 因为地点在曼谷。当晚的天气一如往常的泰 国，温热芬芳，我被棕榈树、佛像和人妖包围 着，观看着谢周三的队友们穿着蓝色队服，正 与利兹对踢成平手。我一边看一边忍不住纳 闷，为什么在跨越近半个地球的谢菲尔德市中 心，要花我在这里同样的时间找到谢周三比 赛的直播？而泰国相对市中心来说，离圣土 Hillsborough足球场要再远上个十万八千里。 足球这个迷人尤物的全球化，意味着不管你是 远在东南亚，还是近在足球俱乐部所在城市， 看他们的比赛一样是件简单的事。这样到底是 好事还是坏事？

當“聖誕節”變 成“剩單節” Lauren Spencer
聖誕將至，每天早晨當你睜開眼（如果你 有足夠的勇氣爬出被窩）準備看看外面的 狀況是不是允許你動用唯一能用的交通工 具 – 雪橇。自打從娘胎里出來生活不能自 理（可能現在還是一樣）到如今長大成人， 對於大部份人來說，聖誕節依然是一年內 最值得興奮的日子。但是除了去W H Smith 買張卡寫上你的聖誕願望，這個節日是否 還有其他意義？
（而不是基於過去所信仰的宗教原因）。 這令我們的焦點集中到聖誕老人身上，而 不是耶穌本身。 相信你在無止境的“中場休息”時，發著短信 討論“X’mas”而不是“Christmas”的時候， 肯定看過那個發生在31世紀的故事動畫片 Futurama。其中有一集講的就是“X’mas 故事”，事實上很說法認為“Christmas”的 拼寫方法已經很凹特（過時）了。 BBC電臺（那個為你播放Eastenders的電 視臺）發佈了一個關於聖誕的定義：是時 候把帶有宗教色彩的“聖誕節”和消費激增 的“剩單節”區分開來了。換句話說：翹課 去血拼吧（帶張能透支的銀行卡）。
我知道“陰謀”這個詞有點危言聳聽，但是 Micah認為這種聖誕陰謀論普遍存在：世 界各地的人們都自願投身其中：人們十 分樂意跟隨大流而道德上講，人們選擇 遵循“上帝的”意願。儘管難以承認，每個 人的生命都是由大大小小的“陰謀”構造而 成。 如今還有多少人會拼寫“Christmax” 而不是“X’mas”？或者懶得全拼，或者你覺 得“X’mas”比較酷，但是究竟“X’mas”從何 而來？有人說源於想去除這個節日的宗教 色彩，因而創造出“X’mas”一詞，嗯很有深 度，但是沒這麼複雜。事實上，“X”源於希 臘語子母中“Christ”發音的字母，寫法形狀 類似“X’mas”。 我相信你在學校肯定學到過關於耶穌的故 事，知道耶穌（但不是他的誕生日）與聖誕 節的聯繫。實際上耶穌誕生日的真正慶典是 把富人的財產分給窮人（這樣將避免很多透 支），或者病弱者（酒醉者除外）會神奇的 痊愈 --- 至今一件都沒有發生過。 實際上一直在發生的是年復一年對聖誕老人 的包裝再包裝：想想每年聖誕可口可樂公司 大貨車上那個大鬍子紅臉頰的老爺爺。孩子 們（甚至成年人）一看到電視上的廣告就對 各種禮物各種食物兩眼發光。聖誕老人的形 象已經默默地被重新定義（不僅僅是對那些 還相信這個傳說的人，而是對所有喜歡這個 節日的人而言），在如今的20世紀，“聖誕” 已經成為“節日性消費”的代名詞。商家希望 這個節日里人們大量消費而且覺得理所應當

S.O.S—聖誕大血 姐（已經被兩次拉入黑名單，例如睡了或者吃 了你前一晚上剩下的披薩）買禮物不是什麽愉 快的事，但是請儘量避免買12雙聖誕老人和雪 橇鹿的襪子。很多商店都有學生折扣（如果你 的學生卡沒有丟），所以耐心點淘寶，實在不 行就買張代金券，以免送出去禮物的時候得來 一句假惺惺又尷尬的“謝謝，我挺喜歡的”。 儘 管你再笨手笨腳，你也要包禮物！禮物紙越好 看，對方留意到你蹩腳禮物的幾率就越低！ 如 果你實在厭倦了聖誕的璀璨燈光，感覺比上了 一天班都累。別擔心，酒吧轉彎就到了。
每年都有那麼一刻，你要省出每週買酒的錢給被 你除外求學拋棄在家的親人們買禮物（這裡的禮 物不指你堆在床底下該洗的衣服），今年的這一 刻終於到來了！ 趕快從被窩里鑽出來，如果你 已經好不容易移動腳步走到了沙發處，套上離你 最近的那件外套（半乾淨狀態）去市中心看看用 你的資金都能買點什麽吧。 血拼之際，請不要 忘記躲開人頭湧湧的“折扣一族”，我們發現能避 開這些群眾的唯一辦法就是假裝你在邊走邊聽電 話，或者理他們老遠老遠的，除非你有本事領養 一隻老虎陪你上街。 眾所周知，謝村市中心就 那麼幾家店，如果都沒有你中意的，別忘了還有 一家Primark。不是每個人都帶著聖誕心情的， 所以做好被擠壓的準備，特別是被那些準備用 麥當勞一解宿醉的群體。 我知道給爸媽、三表

时尚 圣诞雷人还是圣诞美人？ Lauren Spencer
我们都知道用单薄的学生零用钱很难塑造独树一 帜的穿衣风格。更何况从那堆少有的洗过的衣 服里面。 每年圣诞，你可能都要对那些充满老 人味的圣诞毛衣表示厌恶，它们要么太紧，要么 穿在身上就像套着个麻布袋。现在多亏各商店 都進了一批更鲜艳、更时尚（一点点）的毛衣， 你大可挑一件合身的秀出上面的誇張Santa圖案 或者巨大的聖誕布丁圖案！如果你在年齡上心 智上都足以自己挑選衣服，何不堅持這一傳統 來Birds Yard看看挑選一件獨特的聖誕毛衣？讓 DazaRockz實惠又特別的款式或Rita Manita的 經典條紋陪你慶祝這個聖誕吧！（聖誕美人） 但是即使在聖誕這樣的好日子里，穿著一件閃 亮數字毛衣也難以接受。你可不是在模仿一 個
聖誕掛件親愛的。 （聖誕雷人） 暴風雪即將來 臨了！一直不停刷微博的你肯定也聽說了。所 以馬甲拖鞋什麽的難免把你帶進急診處（男孩 別以為說的不是你）。個位數的低溫還暫時沒 有制止夏威夷短褲的出現和過多肉體的曝露。 （聖誕雷人） 去二手店逛一圈，入手一雙老式 雪地靴或者80年代皮外套，實惠而且肯定不怕 撞衫。. Knuf, Ecclesall Road上總有一些潮男 潮女從那些販賣舊樂隊風格服飾的店裡淘寶。 慢慢享受舒適的店裡環境和別樹一幟的裝修佈 局，類似西街上的Cow和Bangbang都是好選 擇。 （聖誕美人）

美國騙局 （12月13日上映） 導演：大卫·O·拉塞尔 當Christian Bale好不容易從“蝙蝠俠”拯救世界的角色抽出身來，而 Bradley Cooper也好不容易度過了他的“宿醉”期，這兩位主角終於 走到一起開始了一場震驚全國的滔天醜聞。 故事講述了一個騙子Irving Rosenfield(Christian Bale飾演)，和他 性感邪惡的搭檔Sydney Prosser (Amy Adams飾演)被迫為FBI調 查員Richie DiMaso (Bradley Cooper飾演)效勞。隨即他們被捲入 一個危險叢生而又紙醉金迷的世界，充斥著各類政治掮客和黑手 黨。Irving的妻子(Jennifer Lawrence飾演)恰巧是那個可能將這個世 界毀於一旦的女人。 不是很多觀眾會喜歡奧斯卡式的演技和故事情節，但是預告片還是 值得一看。如果你只是爲了看Bradley Cooper帶著一頭粉紅捲髮和 脫衣服（老把戲），那恐怕你要失望了。估計你只能看到Christian Bale的啤酒肚和偏分的地中海。

創新藝術平臺：Hand Of 與答 如果說至今Crooks還沒有舉辦過什麽具有創造性的盛典，也不會言過其實。然而這些都隨著創新型藝術平 臺Hand Of的出現而改變了。我們採訪到Hand Of團體的幕後主腦Louise Snape，讓他為我們介紹更多關 於這個團體。 為我們簡單介紹一下Hand Of 我想舉辦一場電子音樂和表演藝術，讓更多的人真切的接觸藝術而不是摸著下巴在手提電腦上觀看藝術。 我還想舉辦一場電影之夜，用投影儀在天花板上放映電影短片，觀眾們可以躺在碩大的床墊上抱著cushion 蓋著毯子觀看。我決定成立一個多元化組織，可以舉辦各式各樣的藝術活動，任何人都可以參加。 目前為止你們都舉辦了哪些活動？ 過去幾年我們陸陸續續舉辦了不少活動。我記得的有Ceiling Club的電影之夜，Portland Works的電子音樂 演出和一些聲樂演出。當然還有Garden Institute的戲劇之夜。我尤其喜歡在S1 Artspace舉辦的那場電子 芭蕾。 我去了那場Garden Institute的喜劇之夜，我很喜歡，還會再演出么？ 很高興你喜歡！我收到了很多贊賞，非常高興。我想謝村的人習慣了各個酒吧大大小小的音樂演出，但是 缺少一些低調卻又高質量的草根文化。當然以後還會有！ 接下來有什麽新動向？ 同樣在Garden Institutes，我們至今為止最大的一場活動正在籌備中，即將在2014年舉辦。將會有一場展 覽會，還有包括古銅樂器表演、電子音樂和電影。我們還有幸和更多的編曲者合作，還有電影製作組以及 攝影家。一定要留意我們！精彩在後面！

惊慌兔子，那个唱把人推下楼梯的乐队，我个人的情感依托，今年举行了盛大的世界巡回演出。从 欧洲到美国再到澳洲，这个乐队坐着喷射机走到世界各个角落，把他们的苏格兰之声传布各地。我 们爱他，我们爱他们的口音，爱他们的音乐。我们有幸与鼓手Grant Hutchinson进行了交谈。
巡回演出怎么样？纽约怎么样？
伯明翰或者謝菲爾德，你更喜歡哪一個城市？
美国巡演很盡興。為時很長也很筋疲力盡，我 感覺這一趟老了很多但是很值得，很開心。紐 約太棒了。Webster Hall是個絕佳的場地，能在 那唱上兩晚，夫複何求？
噢少來！！這還用問么？（謝村） 你最喜歡的書是什麽？ Sebastien Faulks的《鳥鳴》
什麽促使你決定開始這場巡演？
你最喜歡的詩歌是什麽？
其實主要是我們預計的演唱會和全國巡演剛好 趕到一起了。而且去美國演出一趟花銷很高所 以我們決定物盡其用，而這一次我們決定每個 角落都跑一趟！有很多地方我們很久沒去了甚 至一些地方從來沒有去過，所以我們想在還來 得及的時候拜訪一下。
Wilfred Owen的《Dulce Et Decorum》 除夕夜有什麽打算么？ 不知道還！如果樂隊有空的話，我儘量不提前 計劃，因為一般希望越大失望越大！不過肯定 手裡拿著一瓶啤酒。
你歌詞的靈感源自哪裡？ 這個問題真還考倒了Scott，不過我還是能給出 些答案。一開始主要關於很私人的問題，而後 來Scott拓展了思維把其他人的生活也寫了進 去。我覺得這次的歌詞創作更具合作性，所以 試一次很成功的嘗試
在謝村的演出有什麽特別令人期待的么？ 6個大鬍子蘇格蘭帥哥大汗淋漓的給力表演！ 再強調一次，每個樂隊現場演出最重要的還是 要忠於自我。我們對待每場演出都很認真，一 直提醒自己這些觀眾在眾多的樂團中選擇了你 們，所以你要盡力把最好的帶給這些支持你的 人！當然舞臺設置、伴舞和道具必不可少。
你打算給用你的音樂傳達什麽樣的信息？ 其實沒有什麽具體的信息，如果聽眾們可以從 中聽到什麽的話，我們希望他們聽到音樂很忠 實于自我，而我們也只是通過音樂表的真實的 自己。這也是很多年輕樂團們需要謹記的一 點。忠實自我非常重要，很可惜如今很多樂團 在路途中迷失了自我。
什麽令你快樂？ 現在回家就讓我很快樂，因為並不能時常回 家，而且回家能看到我小外甥女們。 什麽令你悲傷？
在你的音樂生涯中最成功的演出是哪次？
看到別人悲傷。
我最喜歡的演出還是幾年前節日時在愛丁堡 Queen’s Hall舉辦的那場。那是一次很成功而 且感覺所有事情都很順利的演出，觀眾們很配 合。至今難忘。
巡演結束后有什麽打算？ 我打算穿上睡衣玩上兩個月的PlayStation。我 還要追劇，要把Breaking Bad看完。 2014年有什麽打算？ 第五張新專輯。

Eliza Doolittle 訪談錄
我第一次聽說有個Eliza Doolittle（或者更准確的說是Eliza Sophie Caird）是在 幾年前她發表了那首膾炙人口的“pack up”。隨後我可能就像大部份人一樣 忽略了她。那首歌幾乎是街知巷聞然後突然間。。噗。。就消失了，看 起來不過是僥倖成名。後來Doolittle小姐發佈的幾首歌都反響平平，幾乎 即將成為歷史。。。 幸運的是 ，Doolittle小姐並沒有停止音樂創造的步伐并帶著一首“Big When I Was Little”華麗回歸。“Big When I Was Little”是她的新專輯“In Your Hands”第一首 歌。The Student Magazine（紙上談英）有幸採訪了Eliza，共個同探討了關於 從事音樂事業、創造音樂當然還有表演音樂的故事。 Hi Eliza,感謝接受我們的採訪。 噢別客氣，感謝你們採訪我！ 你已經在出現在公共視線里一段時間了。你是否感覺自己已經成為音樂 產業所塑造的形象？還是從一開始你就準備好透過音樂表達最真實的自 己？ 我塑造性很低。本質上我太固執所以很難按照他人的意願行事。我甚至 有些強迫癥。但是我承認有些時候必須做出讓步，就看你怎麼看一件 事。任何事情你都必須考慮到不同的選擇，然後做出跟預想中有些許差 別的決定。事情不會總按照你計劃的那樣發展 是的，如今你有很多粉絲，年輕的女性粉絲崇拜你，而你並不屬於半裸 的流行明星，你是一名歌手。這是你一開始就做出的選擇么？ 說實話你知道么？我從來沒有想過這個問題。我是一個無拘無束的人。 我也不介意看到別人裸體。其實我自己一個人在家的時候大部份時間都 是裸著的（大笑）。只能說有些事情我不一定願意做而有些事情我不介 意去做。我覺得只要時刻保持真我才是最重要的，不管是一絲不掛還是 衣裝革履。 說得好。你對未來有什麽音樂計劃么？是準備進行巡演還是打算休息一 陣子？ 當然我希望有機會進行巡演。目前我主要集中精力宣傳我的唱片希望得 到最多的關注，當然也在創作新曲目。我並不希望中斷音樂進程。 可以說你是一個多產的歌手么？還是你只是有心情的時候才寫寫歌？ 我覺得可能更多的是後者，因為如果沒有靈感的話寫了也沒有意義。不
页#11
過我也有堅持每週都寫一首儘管那可能不是最好的歌，只是爲了保持這 種習慣。 你最喜歡新專輯“In Your Hands”里的哪首歌？ 說實話我不知道，因為我大概為這張專輯寫了超過100首歌，所以能被收 錄進去的我都很喜歡。每一首歌對我都有很大意義，當然在我寫每首歌 的時候，創作過程對我的意義更為重大。我想“In Your Hands”本身是一首很 強大的歌曲所以我選擇用它來命名整張專輯。在創作這首歌的時候我正 處在人生的從未感受過的脆弱期，我想記住人生低谷的那種感覺要比記 住人生輝煌一刻的感覺更重要。另外“No Man Can”描寫了我理想中的生活狀 態，非要選的話我想我最喜歡“No Man Can”。 你在回答過程中改變了注意！ 事實上是整張唱片的創作讓我喜歡裏面的每一首單曲。例如我也喜 歡“Wasting Time”和“Walking on Water”這兩首情歌，它們是我從心裡迸發出來的 創作在某種程度上還帶點小傷感。還有。。。你看結果我會把每首歌都 說一遍。這張專輯還承載了我的消極意識和積極意識的自我戰爭。像那 首“Team Player”就是告訴你要給自己一次愛的機會而另一首“Don’t Call it Love” 又是在講“去你的，誰認真誰就輸了”。每 首歌都一個情節，缺少任何一 首都不是一個完整的故事。 對於想進入音樂產業的年輕人們你有什麽建議？ 主要是讓音樂帶著你走，別無可選，做音樂、音樂人。如果你堅持創作 堅持用音樂表達自己，總有一天你會得到關注，而如果你表達得更出 色、得到的關注自然更多。 Eliza Doolittle最新專輯“Eliza Doolittle”現已發佈

新鮮事 謝菲爾德大學 Greentop馬戲歌舞團聖誕匯演 (9月14日) 聖誕節將至，是時候把一月經歷的考試折磨拋諸腦後，放情縱飲，準備好未來 的一個半月都穿著寬鬆的“大褲衩”度過吧。何不用這場馬戲團匯演起個頭，爆 笑掉一些贅肉？上至驚奇的雜技，下至嫺熟的拋球（兩個球以上），（希望） 你會從演出中發現驚喜。如果今年的你感受到格外的聖誕氣息，那就套上你最 應景的主題服裝參與其中吧。額，不好意思，昨晚爬吧穿過的t-shirt不算
謝村聖誕集市 （11月15日 ---- 12月24日， 市中心） 誰都知道謝村市中心除了櫛比鱗次的酒吧和外賣店，再也沒有啥好供消遣的 了。依然，聖誕集市還是憑藉香噴噴的異國料理和不明物體提取的香水味把大 家吸引過去，說不定還會買上這樣一瓶，又或者一不小心在行星大小的攤檔邊 挑買了過量的糖果。儘管你可能把僅剩的5磅子都花在昨晚的那頓咖喱了，你 還是會在這些琳琅滿目的小攤檔上發現驚喜。如果你還相信聖誕老人的存在， 何不去他老人家那拜訪一下？
除夕派對 （12月29日、30日 --- Owlerton Greyhound體育場） 不想像往年一樣跟父母度過大除夕夜？是不是受邀打算在聽說的那場派對后不 醉不歸？從那堆該洗的衣服堆里找回最長自信的戰衣，下趟館子，保證你吃 的比Tesco速食品舒服。拿上你的會員卡或者包個總統卡位（爽貨吧?）看場 Rihanna表演吧，（抱歉當然不是真人秀），然後繼續跟往常泡吧一樣，愛幹 啥幹啥，你懂的
页#7
哈萊姆大學 曼谷人妖夜 – 聖誕特別派對 （12月5日 --- Sabai閣） 相信誰都知道他們，哦不對，她們（或許有些人還十分熟悉）,現在她們受邀 首次光臨謝村了。準備好被珠片、閃光燈亮瞎眼、被婀娜的肢體語言調戲吧！ 咳咳，注意別盯著一個地方看太久。。說不定哪個Cheryl Cole還是哪個江南 Style就把你迷倒了，反正絕對不會令你失望。肯定比你呆在家看聖誕怪傑來 得刺激
Devonshire集市 – 聖誕特輯 （12月14日 --- Devonshire Green公園） 咬一口熱噴噴的速食品，喝一口美好的酒精，此等享受永不厭倦（你肯定都已 經習以為常了）。Devonshire Green一改前貌，從過去的燒烤聖地和宿醉流浪 漢的清晨棲息場所搖身一變，到充滿現代時尚氣息的歡樂集市。如果你對那些 服飾配件沒有興趣，就給自己來瓶酒精（一飲而盡）然後跟著Dj、街頭藝人和 現場樂隊的音樂起舞吧，在還能走直線的時候盡情秀出你的舞步
聖誕默劇 （12月11日 – 1月10日 – Lyceum歌劇院） 或許你時不時洗洗碗，還能熟練的找到吸塵機的開關所在，所以你覺得自己是 一個羽翼豐滿的成年人了，但是一場高質量的默劇，老少皆宜。如果你連聖誕 時節都沒辦法靜下心來欣賞一出默劇，還能等森麼時候？今年的白雪姑娘可要 帶動觀眾們一起朝小矮人們吼叫了。那些最經典的迪士尼夢幻將被改編成歇斯 底裡的黑色默劇，令最穩重的老者們都忍俊不禁。
