 Christmas may come but once a year, but this is the second Slugfest of 2009 and it's certainly far more fun. Johnny H takes in the day's proceedings and reports back on his seasonal walk on the cold and icy wild side.

 "Tonight's the night I finally get to meet Ace Frehley. Ace being a bit of a god to any self respecting Über Röcker and the only member of the original Kiss line up I'd yet to meet." Fraser Munro feels like he's 'Dancin With Danger' as he finally meets the Spaceman at his recent London show. Read more here.....

 On paper this final day of the third annual Hard Rock Hell Festival was always the strongest looking line up wise, the fact that nearly all day you had a potentially headlining name band playing somewhere in the facility was credit indeed to the strength in depth of this year's bill....Johnny H gets the grips with Saturday's events at Hard Rock Hell 3.

If the previous night's warm up had been our blues-rock and metal starter for ten then the first full day of this year's Hard Rock Hell line-up looked like a cornucopia of rock cranked all the way up to eleven. Strap yourselves in as Johnny H hurtles into Day 2.....

Well it's that time of year again. Your hearts filled with joy, you've got everything packed ready for the big occasion, you've got the booze and the food in and all you need now is your best mates to turn up. Yeah it's Hard Rock Hell time again and the usually cheery Johnny H says "Fuck Christmas, Let's Rock"

 This was one of those gigs you just had to get to no matter what. Bringing together shitloads of local talent headlined by the unmissable Bad Samaritans this has "Classic TJ's Christmas Gig" stamped all over it. Darrel Sutton gets into the Christmas Spirit just for Über Röck...

 Ho Ho Über Ho. It's Wednesday night, and the Über-Express has dropped Rob Watkins in Cardiff. No time for filling up his Christmas stocking up tonight though, as he heads for a dark sleazy basement in the city centre to catch up with the the Heaven's Basement, Dear Superstar, New Device UK tour.

 It's Hard Rock Hell 3 Eve and I should really be at home getting myself prepared, but the lure of seeing my favourite new band playing live a few miles from my house is just too much of must attend to miss out on.

 Dom Daley is dancing like a monkey, as he goes looking for a kiss, in Bristol's fantastic Anson Rooms venue. Yeah people, it's New York Dolls time again and onto that famous stage strut some of the coolest cats known to rock 'n' roll. You best believe he's in luv L-U-V.
