We love Teenage Fanclub. How couldn’t you? They are shiny, wonderful and make consistently wonderful music. We’ll have an exclusive chat with Norman over the next couple of weeks, so keep your eyes peeled for that. In the meantime, here’s the band performing the astounding ‘Sparky’s Dream’ at T in the Park 1996.

Here’s her guide to what you can look forward to; It’s that time of the year again, when half of Glasgow and Edinburgh packs up and heads north to terrorise the good citizens of rural Kinross for a [...]

ELM brings you this weeks major news stories, taken as seriously and presented with just the right amount of gravitas as they deserve.

Ah, festivals. There’s nothing like being there to soak up the atmosphere. And frankly, the TV coverage provided on them recently has been ABSOLUTELY nothing like being there. ITV’s coverage of The Isle of Wight Festival was as toe-curlingly awful as you would have expected from a corporation seemingly determined to be seen as the [...]

At T in the Park last year, the Sunday headliners on the two main stages were Kasabian and Snow Patrol. Up to this point I’d had a pretty good festival, and didn’t want to spoil it be seeing either of those two overrated acts. Too lazy* to go elsewhere we stayed and watched The Sunshine [...]

I don’t like festivals. You probably could have predicted that, I know. You stand in a field and get covered in mud. I don’t like mud. It’s not solid ground, it’s not a proper puddle, its just this gooey mess. In fact, if mud was a singer, it would be James Blunt. That’s how much [...]
