Celtic Thunder - Celtic Thunder

Thunderous

Advantages: The best of British rock
Disadvantages: Maybe a little cliched

Back in the 1980?s, a wonderful band called Terraplane decided to call it a day, after producing a couple of brilliant albums which no-one bought. Fortunately for rock lovers, three of the band, vocalist Danny Bowes, guitarist and main songwriter Luke Morley and drummer ?Arry ?H? James enjoyed making music and each other?s company far too much to let it end there. So they stayed together, started another band, and called themselves Thunder. In August 1989, the newly formed band signed to EMI. Not long afterwards, a bassist (Mark Luckhurst) and a guitarist/keyboard player (Ben Matthews) were added, and the recording of one of British rock music?s greatest ever albums started. In February 1990, Thunder burst onto the scene with their first single ?Dirty Love?, which was followed in late April 1990 by their debut album, ?Backstreet ...

Review of Backstreet Symphony - Thunder

The Glasgow Celtic

Advantages: Attacking, quality football.
Disadvantages: None

Celtic are once more beginning to look like a strong side with potential. Labelled as sleeping giants they have endured an extended period of domination from their Glasgow rivals Rangers. It looks as though Martin O' Neill has changed all of that and the league may not be the extent of our ambition anymore, the idea of being in Europe after Xmas has long been an unattainable dream but things are different now and although it would be rash to say that we will progress in the Champions League, under our new manager anything seems possible. If You Know The History The club was founded in 1888 and the trademark hoops strip was first introduced in 1903/04. Celtic became the first British club to lift the European cup in 1967, a feat that was all the more amazing as the Celtic team were all from within a few miles of the ground. We beat ...

Review of Celtic

You can't stop the thunder

Advantages: Superb racing scenes
Disadvantages: Possibly more suited to a racing fan

Now I usually like most films with Tom Cruise in and have seen a good fair few. One of those that I hadn't seen up until last night however was Days of Thunder. This was another one of the DVD that I received for Christmas and can't really understand why I'd never seen it before. The film was released in 1990 and stars Tom Cruise, you may have guessed that much, Nicole Kidman and Robert Duval. Cole Trickle is a hotshot driver but unfortunately it isn't only his driving that's hot. His temper is often boiling and his patience don't stretch very far. This doesn't mean however that he isn't exceptionally good at driving a car astonishingly fast. When Cole is discovered by Businessman Tim Daland and teamed up with the legendary crew chief and car-builder Harry Hogge things are heading in exactly the right direction. A gut ...
