Violence

Well I was on the bus on my way into town to see Tokyo Police Club at the Night and Day – a single decker stagecoach number 42 no less. We were just coming into the beginning of Fallowfield when at the bus stop a chap who was waiting outside of the bus for his […]

The Truly Penultimate Show

The Andrew Jackson Show is here for its penultimate show… for ever! But boy have we got a rammed show for you today [I don’t know how we’re going to fit it in]. This week’s topic as some of you may have heard at the end of last week’s show is man crushes. That form […]

No more skinny jeans?

Last night I had a rather impromptu engagement with The Maccabees. No not the Jewish Rebels but rather that five-piece from south London. It was the usual story, a friend trying to get rid of a spare ticket and rather than tout it offers it up to a list of appropriately ‘trendy’ peers. Why the […]

The 4 Week Blog Challenge

Well I’ve decided to join in on the four week blog challenge; a challenge set by my housemate Dan to his girlfriend Lizzie when she found out that somebody from the Guardian wouldn’t accept anyone into his/her department who hadn’t got a blog.
