As Samantha Fish throws her last plectrum into the audience and walks off stage I am left mouth wide open as to what I have just witnessed. Where has the last 90 mins gone? Can […]
What a great way to end a great tour – right back at home in Fremantle. Hometown heroes Eskimo Joe has the crowd in the palm of their hands tonight from start to finish as […]
Review by Tommy Gallagher We sent our newest reviewer to join our team to check out the double single launch from Hailmary & Amberdown at the Milk Bar in Perth. Dining with Sinners – Talk […]
The night after The Darkness laid waste to Perth on their Australian Tour they hit Adeliade – check out our gallery from Rock Tsar Photography.
Saturday afternoon and I have completed the ritual of checking and double checking batteries, lenses and memory cards before heading out to the beautiful Sandalford Winery in the Swan Valley, Western Australia. The Red […]
We’ve already reviewed The Darkness this year as the band’s Motorheart Tour rolled into Minneapolis back in March and now it’s Australia’s turn! After a stunning couple of nights in Melbourne The Darkness hit […]
It was a Friday night, a little bit of cloud cover about but nothing that would scare away the fans from an amazing gig and a great outdoor venue. Port Beach Brewery is a multi-level […]
Rumor has it that the myth may be closing by the end of this year to make way for more apartments or condominiums or some other thing that we seem to have more than enough […]
There are 3 things in this world that are certainties – death, taxes and the fact that you will need hearing protection when you attend Stormrider Heavy Metal festival. It’s loud, its heavy and […]
Wow, wow wow… what more can I say! I have just witnessed one of the greatest performances I have ever seen at The Greystones in Sheffield. I was completely blown away and I am still […]
I love metal shows even though I’m not a huge metal fan. I thought this current tour with these four bands was a great representation of different kinds of metal genres. I’m not going to […]
I remember fondly seeing the Hoodoo Gurus final Australian tour, the nationwide three-month ‘Spit the Dummy’ tour, in back 1997 catching shows in Sydney where I lived and later in Perth when I was on […]
Review by Laurie Luke It is my first time arriving at Red Hill Auditorium and I am immediately impressed. The layout is fantastic, the stage is clearly visible from all areas, with a view of […]
It’s always interesting when you finally get to see a band you’ve waited over a decade to see. I’ve been singing the praises of H.E.A.T. since the first days of The Rockpit, and tonight on […]
It’s a Thursday night, a school night in Melbourne. I have my camera and I am heading to a venue I have never heard or attended before, Musicland Melbourne. I have come to see Truck […]
It sounded like a good idea and then COVID hit. Like many other touring packages, it’s been side-tracked for over two years. The pent-up excitement and anticipation add it to the craziness of this […]
On my arrival at in Newtown, It was fairly obvious that there was a Rock show in the vicinity. Obviously, Newtown Station is still a reasonably colourful precinct at the best of times, but the […]
It has been a long wait to get us to tonight’s show in more ways than one, but that wait has only served to build the anticipation. As the crowds milled outside before the […]

Anthrax came to town on their 40th anniversary tour and brought two incredible bands to support them. First one up was Hatebreed. The fans showed up early and the place was packed before they even went […]
It was another amazing sell-out show at The Charles Hotel in Perth as once again live music fans came out in their droves to support an industry that has suffered much through the barren […]
I’ve reviewed Buckcherry many times before, for The Rockpit. I will continue to do so but this is more of a pictorial review than anything else. If you don’t know who Buckcherry is by this point, what’s wrong […]
I thought it was very interesting that I was going to see Ted Nugent playing at a County Fair in a small city like Albert Lea at a County Fair. It’s a fun County Fair filled […]
I had grown up with award winner Tex Perkins in my life from the 90’s, it was a staple in most musical diets of people of my age. “The Cruel Sea” had contributed so much […]
Saturday night in Perth for me always brings excitement especially when I am reviewing an artist or a band. You get the call, the approval email from the promoter, anticipation grows as you figure out […]
