Jazz Music
When the whistle blows, the jazz kicks off
And, throughout the 90 minutes of hurly-burly unfolding above them, they play. Not terrace favourites such as Three Lions or the theme from The Great Escape - this is live, improvised jazz. Every kick, every clearance, every wallop of the ball into a centre-half's shins from Wayne Rooney is accompanied by an appropriate riff, honk or tootle. It's music as commentary.

Keith Urban Rocks Out
There have not been too many new musical acts in recent times that have made me stand up and take notice. Keith Urban is a notable exception to that statement. He is bringing something fresh and new to the music world and it is refreshing to see. I first heard Keith last year when a friend had brought his iPod on a trip. He popped on Keith Urban and it was history from there on out. My wife even bought me a few Keith Urban ringtones for my phone on my birthday a few weeks ago. I guess that is the way of showing that you like a particular band these days. But, ringtones are pretty cool, so I am fine with that. Good luck to Keith on his latest tour.
