I have just upgraded to the 'new' Blogger which has heaps of new features which I haven't fully worked out yet.You will notice that some of the elements from the sidebar on the right are missing. Certain things will be replaced but not all of them.In the near future TRW will be getting a complete overhaul so look out for that.

The Killers in Blackpool - Part 2 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Despite the generosity of The Killers
as they roamed around Blackpool
during the day and Radio 1's liberal giving away of tickets throughout last week, there were still hundreds of fans desperate for a slice of the action waiting on the streets surrounding Blackpool's Winter Gardens in the hope that they would get their hands on a ticket for this one off gig.Even those lucky enough to have tickets began queueing many hours before the show, desperate to secure a spot as close as possible to the stage. Anticipation was high and the atmosphere was electric as the crowds waited for the doors to the Empress Ballroom to open.Inside, the venue was perfect for The Killers. Incredibly grand, slightly camp yet incredibly classy and cool. The crowd poured in, racing towards the modestly sized stage emblazoned with hundreds if not thousands of fairy lights.There was no waiting around. Zane Lowe took to the decks for an incredible DJ set, warming the crowd into a frenzy.Shortly after 9pm The Kill
The Razor Roundup 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Robbie Williams has cancelled the Asia leg of his tour. The superstar is apperently too tired to play the shows across the continent scheduled for November.He'll still be playing the final night at the Milton Keynes Bowl tonight and dates across South America.What I can't understand is how you can pre-empt tiredness. I'll be alright for the next few weeks but a bit tired on Wednesday 18th October so don't expect any posts then alright?![LINK]Scissor Sisters are warming up to play in front of 15,000 fans tonight in Trafalgar Square, London. The band will be previewing tracks from new album 'Ta-Dah' which is out in the UK on Monday.Despite touring across their homeland of America, frontman Jake Shears has repeatedly said that playing in the UK feels like they are at home.[LINK]Apple announced a load of awesome new gadgets and gizmos this week including new iPods.

Lil' Chris 1970-01-01 00:59:59 When I first heard 'Checkin' It Out', the debut single from, the star of Rock School, Lil' Chris
, I thought: "Blimey, that nose job really really has changed the sound of Ashlee Simpson's voice, but I like this new song".Since then of course it has emerged that the song is in fact sung by a very small boy. Instantly I felt weird about liking the song. Saying out loud "I like Lil' Chris" is even more embarrasing than saying out loud "cor, this Ashlee Simpson song is good" - isn't it?!I'm still not comfortable with the idea but it is a good song... ..I think. Jo Whiley, she who is an authority on all things cool, likes it and so do the rest of the clan at Radio 1. 'Checkin It Out' has made it onto the 'A' playlist in time for its release.It's all still a bit novelty though isn't it? If you watch the video (which is also worryingly watchable) you'll notice that Lil' Chris's' (apostrophe confusion) band members are all about three times his age (and height). Also, despite
The Killers in Blackpool - Part 1 1970-01-01 00:59:59 As you may have heard, The Killers
played an amazing gig at Blackpool
's Empress Ballroom on Friday night. The Razor Wire headed to Blackpool for all of the action.Arriving late Thursday night after a delayed Ryanair flight, Blackpool didn't strike us as the 'Las Vegas of the north' which is how Radio 1 had described it in their publicity. Instead we struggled to find a bar which we were confident we wouldn't leave in an ambulance and I got shot in the leg with a BB gun by some filthy chavs.In stark contrast on Friday morning we awoke to bright sunshine and Blackpool had come to life. First stop was the Pleasure Beach where Jo Whiley was broadcasting live from.Jo was having whale of a time playing on the rides and incredibly managing to keep her breakfast down and continue with her show like the professional she is.The Killers arrived to an less than overwhelming response from the theme park's patrons. This was mainly because they were a hoard of about 4,000 chav kids who have bee
Rogue Traders Announce Second UK Single 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Bon soir! You know that Izzy Hoyland off of Neighbours? Well, she's only gone and announced the release date for her second UK single with the Rogue
Traders!'Watching You' will be released on October 16th. The single, taken from the debut album 'Here Come The Drums', samples the guitar riff from 1979 hit 'My Sharona' originally performed by The Knacks apparently.Lets watch the video...It's not as good as 'Voodoo Child' but I think it may be a grower. The album is worth a look, in particular what may be the third single (optimistic?!) 'Way To Go'.Rogue Traderstherazorwire@gmail.com Read more:Second

Shakira held on at 2 with the irrepresible 'Hips Don't Lie' now in its 700th week on the chart. Also worthy of a mention is that the Scissor Sisters are in a 4 with 'I Don't Feel Like Dancing' on the strength of download sales alone, this means it will almost certainly be number 1 on Sunday.BBC Radio 1 - Top 40 SinglesBig Brother winner Nadia goes back into court today.

TRW Most Played (04/09/2006) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Basement Jaxx - Take Me Back To Your HouseThis track taken from the new album 'Crazy Itch Radio' knocks the socks off the new single 'Hush Boy'. It's classic Jaxx with a hint of progress. They have already made the above video so one can only assume it will be the next single.The Only Ones - Another Girl, Another PlanetNot a new song but given a new lease of life by the recent Vodaphone adverts on the telly. You can buy it on iTunes along with some great covers by Babyshambles and Blink 182. Nice.Muse - StarlightOut today, the second single from 'Black Holes and Revelations' has been getting a good thrashing. I have developed a new found respect for Muse following their amazing performance at Reading last weekend.The Killers - When You Were YoungThe first single from their second album 'Sam's Town' is on the verge of being killed by the radio but I still love it. Can't wait to hear the album. Did I mention I'm going to see them on Friday?!Scissor Sisters - I Don't Feel Lik Read more:Played
Mason vs Princess Superstar - Perfect (Exceeder) 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Hoi.. ...You know the drill by now. A dance track comes along, it's an instrumental (i.e. there is a distinct lack of vocals), it's ok to hear out on a boozy night but you'd never buy it - this is why upon it's original release it charts lower than Emma Bunton's album....But then... ..just when you think it's all over along come some vocals.. ...they attach themself to the aforementioned instrumental dance track and it becomes an absolute belter... ...cue video:That's what's happened here.

(who are probably German) was out in the Summer but you could be forgiven for not noticing. Now it's back with some Luciana off of Bodyrox style vocals provided by PrincessSuperstar
- she's the one who did a song about doing rude things in a shower with her boyfriend while she was supposed to be babysitting, the song was very accurately titled 'Bad Babysitter'.The single is out on 22nd January 2007 - but I'm sure you'll be hearing it out over the festive period... ...
