A Few of My Favourite Tyneside Bands
Introduction A lot of these bands are no longer with us but all of them were worth seeing when they were performing. A lot are still going as well so all is not lost. A couple such as Bon Jordi, Radge Against The Machine and Benwell Floyd are not included because they are from a decade back and I have not heard of them recently.

Your New Favorite Band From Out Of Left Field
The average person in the Greater Philadelphia Area doesn’t know who The Wayside is. The lucky few that have heard of this four-man musical machine, however, have been treated to an audio experience with an origin story almost as nostalgic as their music.

Boy Bands And Girl Bands: When Did They Disappear?
There's been talk in the media regarding the lack of girl bands in the music scene ever since British pop group Little Mix announced their hiatus in 2021. Both Britain and America are suffering not only a girl band crisis, but also a boy band crisis. When you try and think of major boy bands that have hung around the charts in the last year, the only two names that spring to mind are the Jonas Brothers and BTS. Can they really carry this significant part of the industry on their backs alone for another decade?

Presenting Depeche Mode
Sooner or later, I was going to write about yet another one of my favorite bands — Depeche Mode. However, with the recent passing of Andy Fletcher (a.k.a. Fletch) on May 26, I thought now would be a good time to go ahead and write about Depeche Mode and a few of my favorite songs of theirs and then some.

Introduction To Madness - The Business Well that is exactly what this is. It is another that briefly went on my Discogs sale pile, and when I gave it a last listen it came straight off. It contains their early hits and best songs and was issued in 1993 by Virgin.
