LOCAL HEROES: BIRMINGHAM, UK – A great round-up of the best of Birmingham’s music scene, which The Rainbow naturally features in:
The Rainbow is Birmingham’s epicentre for hipsters, thugs and actual creative types. Picture Andy Warhol’s factory if it was run by a drunken ex-boxer and covered in illegible tags, crude graffiti and vomit, all the while being sound tracked by pulverizing bass frequencies.
I found it a bit ill informed — apart from dismissing Sabbath as “bland” (huh?) he managed to confuse Martin Mullaney and Clive Dutton. He also thinks the noise abatement order on the Rainbow has been overturned – wishful thinking there.
Well yeah, but great for it’s comedy write-up on The Rainbow! ;)
I commented a correction on Clive Dutton, let him know exactly whose face we thrust our tellies upon.
