Nick GunnReviews![]() EventsThe Rocky Horror Show[5.May.08] :. Much as the entrance of Tim Curry in his outrageous tranny outfit defines the film version, the roof lifted off the theatre when iOTA emerged in full space-bitch garb as Frank. ![]() EventsIron & Wine[21.Apr.08] :. It turns out Iron & Wine can rock out with the best of them: the force of it almost knocked me out. ![]() EventsBeirut[15.Apr.08] :. There is a sense of fin de siècle in the music of Beirut, as though it is prophesying the death of an era in which American music for the most part shunned external influences. ![]() EventsInterpol[6.Mar.08] :. There has been something of a demographic shift in Interpol’s audience since they last visited Sydney. Whereas 2005 saw the prevalence of post-Goth black lace and even blacker eyeliner, 2008 witnessed the long-awaited reappearance of -- dare I say it? -- grunge. ![]() EventsArcade Fire + Spoon[31.Jan.08] :. An army of roadies buzzed about the stage, assembling a clavichord here, a glockenspiel there, plus several mic stands with loudspeakers perched at the tops. Whatever we were about to see, it was obvious that it was going to be big.
