INTERVIEW: Axis Of

 

Wednesday, November 30th, 2011

 

Portstewart three piece, Axis Of were described in 2010 by ‘Rock Sound Magazine’ as being “the most exciting band to come out of Northern Ireland, possibly ever.”  No wonder the Speakeasy was rammed with raucous, die-hard fans before they played.

REVIEW: The Vaccines at the Speakeasy

 

Tuesday, April 12th, 2011

 

What did you expect from The Vaccines? Well they certainly surpassed all expectations in the Speakeasy, where this sell out show brought a whirlwind to the stage. The supporting act, John D’Arcy, drew the crowd in and before long the venue was fizzing with anticipation. When The Vaccines finally blasted onto the stage they wasted no time in getting the crowd moving. Justin Young’s energy seeps through the crowd and before long arms are in the air and the fans are chanting lyrics as though they’ve known them for years.

REVIEW: Lunch at the Speakeasy

 

Wednesday, March 24th, 2010

 

First the good news: The food was fine – Pizzas arrived generously topped, crispy and delicious to eat, the panini was okay and so was the soup, but was overpriced compared to the pizza and panini.  We international postgraduate students had never been to this part of the Students’ Union before and were quite unsure about what to expect, although the promise of cheap pizza helped the decision.
