As we noted yesterday, art fair season is upon us in full force this weekend. With so many events happening around the capital, it would be hard work to take it all in, and the best advice one can offer is to try to see as much as you can without making it all a rushed annoyance of cab rides. Possibly even better advice, however, would be to make a point to check out......

Before you carry on reading, please note that this particular Londonista was not one of the 63,000 at Diana's memorial at Wembley Stadium. This is more of an armchair review, but hopefully one that is relevant enough for you to forgive us just this once. Today, two young men mourned the ten year anniversary of the death of their mother.

Seminal art goth minimalists Bauhaus are back from the dead and 26 years down the line play Brixton Academy on the......

After a busy week being blown into small pieces by the Todd/Oxbow show; breaking into warm smiles with Teenage Fanclub and being bowled over by newbies The Delta Blues - all of whom have been mentioned in these here pages, dear readers - it's time to look into the rock crystal ball and see what's coming up.
