Having been a fan of Judas Priest since 1979 and seen them live on stage many times over the following years, I will admit to being slightly hesitant before going to this gig. The reason for that is the last couple of times I’ve seen the band they paled in comparison to my memories of their […]

Despite being in its 9th year, this was myself and Ramrod’s first visit to Hard Rock Hell.

DVD: Charlie Chan And The Curse Of The Dragon Queen (1981) If there’s one word that I doubt you’ll ever see in a review of ‘Charlie Chan and the Curse of the Dragon Queen’ it’s the word ‘subtle’. From the lavish interiors of the Lupowitz household, to the over-the-top performances and comedy so ‘in your face’ […]
