Another new festival is happening in Belfast next week - it's Rhythm in the City, which has a very varied programme of events between 20th-26th August. Check out their website for full details. Particularly interesting is 'Andy's Factory', which will attempt to recreate Andy Warhol's legendary Factory in the QFT, with multiplicity screenings, DJs and a Velvet Underground tribute set by Go Commando. It's on Sunday 25th August, £5, doors 10pm.

In advance of the site overhaul which will taking palce over the next couple of weeks, I just though I would mention how much I enjoyed Chris Brokaw on Sunday night in Katy Daly's. Chris is probably best known for his work with Come, but his solo set really showed him to be a very gifted guitarist in the vein of the late John Fahey. 'Dresden Promenade' was particularly outstanding.
