Abbey Road
Abbey Road is a must see for any Beatles fan in London. This attraction is not what I expected – it is just a normal street and a normal building surrounded by tons of tourists. The road is extremely busy, but the cars do stop every once in a while to let people take photos. It is amazing how much love people have for these four men. The gate outside the studio is filled with thousands of signatures, messages and images from fans. I am glad I went but I would never go back.

While in London, I will be residing in the Shoreditch area and I have heard only good things about it. My father and I are heading up a few days early and are hitting a lot…

WhiteMoor’s debut album, appropriately titled ‘WhiteMoor’, is an indie, electro pop infusion that demands you dance along. Out of the ashes of their three former bands Barrington, Benny, Luke and Tom have created an album that brings you to your feet. This infectious power pop allows you to forget everything for around forty minutes and lose yourself in the beat. The opening song ‘Three Words’ is by far their best. It has a powerful backbeat and strong vocals. It sets a good pace for the rest of the…
