PATREON PREVIEW: FILM CLUB #25 | Dracula 2000 (er... 2000)

But are we the real monsters?  While you're pondering that, we're welcoming the great Zac Stephenson of Sprints fame to the NO ENCORE studio!  Zac has had a busy year, what with joining up with his Sprints bandmates in time for the recording and release of excellent sophomore effort All That Is Over. Speaking of his band, don't miss their headline show at Dublin's Vicar Street on Thursday 20 November.  As for this show, it's a busy and unavoidably tonal whiplash-inducing affair, so let's get to it.... ACT ONE: Catching up with Zac and everything Sprints.  ACT TWO (23:31): D'Angelo RIP, the horrible story of Ian Watkins reaches its naturally grim conclusion, Rolling Stone unleash the 'best' 250 songs of the 21st century so far, Drake suffers another big loss, Julia Roberts weighs in on the 'art vs artist' thing, and David Draiman reaps what he sows - it's the week in music news.  ACT THREE (1:11:50): Top 5 Songs About Monsters  - Tickets for SPRINTS Dublin & Belfast shows Hosted on Acast.

Ah yes, the humble solo career. A staple for many - though not all - a previously band-focused musician.  George Michael, Beyoncé, Harry Styles, to name but three. And now, etching her name into such lore – our very own MayKay. Rejoice, for we are joined this week on the podcast by one of Ireland's greatest talents and indeed a great friend of Dave's; MayKay is on the co-host mic to talk all-things her long-awaited eponymous debut album and, in keeping with the theme, her favourite solo long-players for her Top 5. If you'd like to see Dave and Adam's proverbial solo projects, you can do so by keeping up with our bonus content including Adam's Album Club and Dave and Andy's Film Club by signing up to our Patreon here. In the meantime, we have some other business to discuss... ACT ONE: The Preamble. ACT TWO (11:05): MayKay tells us about her debut album, and the four-year journey it took to get here.
