HALIFAX: A GOTHIC WEEKEND
We spent the weekend in Halifax!
Halifax is a town located in West Yorkshire. It's famous for it's Piece Hall, a beautiful building, which now holds many independent shops, cafes & bars. In the summer, the outside space is used to hold concerts, and bands such as Korn, Limp Bizkit, and Placebo have played.
As well as the Piece Hall, there are some wonderful craft beer bars, which we sample in this video.
If you are into your doom metal, you will already know some bands were born out of Halifax or close to it, such as Paradise Lost and My Dying Bride (Bradford). We have known some of the MDB guys for a while now, and can now call them friends. Them, and their partners and friends, are simply wonderful. So we all met up and grabbed some drinks. It was fantastic, and we were really, quite drunk. Haha!
Shibden hall is just a five minute drive away from the town centre, so we visited the area before driving home. A tranquil place, with the historical Shibden Hall itself, and the gardens surrounding it. It's worth a trip if you are into nature and have some time.
Another amazing weekend with awesome people!

CRYPTIC SUNDAYS: A GIG AT GRAND CENTRAL 25/08/2024
Переглядів 16312 годин тому
This was our first time seeing a gig at Grand Central. This place has become our favourite metal pub, it's one of the best that I have ever been to, and I have been to a lot! We have recently become friends with a couple of members from the band called Leader, so we wanted to see them play live at this show. They were fantastic, and it was only their second show!

ALTERNATIVE BAR CRAWL - MCR NORTHERN QUARTER

We decided to look more into Manchester's Northern Quarter after we had been out for a friends birthday drinks. We of course had walked around this area in the past, and have gone to a gig or two, but we didn't really know the bars, and have still only touched the surface. The NQ is where you will find the alternative stores (like the incredible Afflecks), gaming bars, quirky cocktail and beer ...

What a show! One of the busiest and best opening acts for the main stage that I have ever seen, and on a Sunday too! This band absolutely deserve it. Along with being hilarious, the band delivered some heavy as hell songs, which caused huge pits and wall of deaths, as well as some random shenanigans such as a conga line and the macarena. One of my highlights for this year, for sure. Plus, Sam's...

I found the area of Pendle on Google maps and spotted the Sculpture trail, which looked both interesting and beautiful, surrounded by lush forest. So we decided to park up in Newchurch-In-Pendle, and walk through Barley, to the trail. The walk was picturesque, yet a little eerie, due to it's history with witches. We loved it! After the walk and some lunch in a cosy pub named the Pendle Inn, we ...

THOR'S CAVE CIRCULAR HIKE @ PEAK DISTRICT (June 2024)

We moved to Manchester just under two weeks ago. We were gradually becoming more and more unhappy back in Essex, due to the lack of things to do that are suited for us. So we took the plunge and decided to move to Manchester, a city that we have always enjoyed when we visited. One of the things that we truly missed whilst being in Essex was hiking. Yes, there are some beautiful walks there, but...
