It’s impossible to put a…

Mew at the Bristol Trinity Centre was a surreal experience for me. I have spent much of last night’s car journey home and this beautifully sunny morning trying to formulate a c…

“This is our 2nd time in Shanghai. Crazy city, amazing!” said Johan Wohlert to the audience. I was surprised because I didn’t know that they’ve been here only twice. Mew came to…

Los Angeles’ usual heavy traffic and never-ending annoyance of car horns filled the scene in front of the Fonda Theater in Hollywood, California. The Fonda Theater, l […]

Over the course of my day and a half stay across The Channel in Paris, I’m never exactly sure where I am. I mean, I know what I’m next to, and our phones tell us how to get to […]

It was just under a year since I last saw Mew perform at the Roundhouse. I truly believed that it was the best performance that I had seen from them thus far. However, I now […]

It was Bonfire Night 2009 the last time Mew came to Scotland. I distinctly remember moaning about how the last thing I needed on a Thursday night was to be rushing down […]
