Please vote in this poll (below) to help me decide if Donatello's Restaurant in Brighton is witty and knowing or simply shite. Prawn Cocktail - soggy prawns, probably defrosted under a worn tap, gloopy-snot sauce, limp lettuce Garlic Mushrooms - floating in vegetable oil, like turds in the med. Pizza - half a pound of dehomoginised economy cheddar saturating the dough with oil And ...
To be more precise it is Sister, Sister, Half Sister. But Bros allowed Craig to join in so there is family misnomer precedent in band names. Actually one third of the trio are half sisters so the name is 67% accurate.
The Brighton band are fun. And ...
Local Food for Local People.
Hove Lawns: all sunny weekend.
The Brighton Food Festival has so far mainly been lots of underwhelming nothingness.
Food Miles, Buy Local, yeah, yeah, I get it. But it's really nothing more than an overpriced market. London Road market has more to offer and it is open all year. If ...
I had mainly been ignoring the Brighton Art Fair. That is because I thought it was just some regional craft fair. But then I received a mail out; a picture of a giant cat with fairy wings.
This image is enough to give me faith in the quality ...

Just notice how they pass the blame onto the suppliers, rather than accepting responsibility.
Dear all Beachdown ticket holders,
Sorry we haven't been in touch sooner with any further information about how to obtain your Beachdown refunds but until now, we had nothing additional to tell you.
However, yesterday we finally managed to ...
It pleasures me to help promote the Brighton Live Music Festival. Why? because it is five days of FREE events that work to promote local artists. That means free gigs. WIN-WIN-all around. Brighton Live is a non-profit organisation which makes a pleasant change in a town filled with greedy fuckers. At the core of the festival is a showcase of new and ...
Put simply, it is a war between artists.
Tonight @Life, King's Road Arches
To be honest, I am not really sure what all this is about. But I intend to find out.
The only question is who will reign supreme. The only weapon that they carry is a pen. ...
Who would have thought it? there is a battle raging in the world of recycling. Firstly, at the start of this week, a freecycle splinter group was formed GreenCycleSussex . This is the moderators from Brighton Freecycle going it alone. Then, some dude called Larry informed me that the original freecycle group is still going. So, who, what, why? It is ...

Bikes, leather, studs. Does it get any camper than this?
In the beginning was the word. And the word was brief, succinct and to the point.
"Let there be light." not a lot of verbosity in that statement.
"Thou shalt not kill." no work for a sub-editor on that text.
And Imbue has done the same-same with this print. ...
Purity Plummets.
The quality of speed available to the public has fallen to an all time low. Consumer groups are calling for goverment regualted minimum standards. The campaign kicks off on Madeira Drive ...

White Air: Why not mix the music with the sport? Next weekend is the "most extreme music weekend in the UK". However without exception, the music stages and the extreme sportiness coexist but never overlap. This leaves the whole being less than some of it's parts - the festival a weakened strain of itself - a cake with no icing or cherry on ...
This could be a chance for a nobody to become a somebody; or at least remain a nobody -but a nobody that has played at a music festival... "The organisers of White Air have today announced an exclusive partnership with MySpace, that will see the festival teaming up with the social network to find a new unsigned band or ...
Orchid Thieves: Prince Albert, Brighton: Sep '09
Orchid Thieves brought every ingredient to the Prince Albert that makes watching a live band such a treat; gorgeous vocals, fantastic stage energy, multi-layered percussions and guitar chords as raw and ripped as your old Levi's. From the very first note a thick beautiful noise belted out of the speakers and filled ...
The WHITE AIR Festival people are so damn pleased with themselves at having added the Lemonheads to the lineup that they are giving away a apir of weekend tickets to celebrate. The question: who has just been added to the Whiteair lineup? Answer: (see above) To Enter: email the answer with your name and number to ...
Reduce your carbon footprint by attending a chilled out acoustic night. No amps, no electricity, no global warming, happy polar bears.
Of course "tipping point theory" tells us that we are already fucked and even teeny-weeny gerbil sized footprints can't save us. So, go and listen to sweet tunes. Three bands, ...
Vbites Hove is at the red hot cutting edge of food serveries with it's innovative food transport technologies. The Vbites conveyor is alsmost as good as the sausage roll frisby and faircake moped down on Hove lagoon.
