A new day, a new dawn, another live show. Today’s final destination is Camden Electric Ballroom for the London stop of this years incarnation of the Impericon Never Say Die Tour. A full half day event with seven bands taking to the stage, each one taking it in turns to test the foundations of the
It maybe pouring with rain outside but we have the warmth of The Bullingdon as refuge in the heart of Oxford for day two of this year’s incarnation of Rabidfest. We just hope that any homeless folks have managed to find shelter from the inclement weather as we prepare for another tsunami of riffs, powerhouse

It’s the final countdown… Day #4 of the Tech-Fest weekend begins with an Oat Milk Latte and fortunately today the line isn’t one you need to endure.
