Time never stands still at The WRC - given we posed the question at Wrinklystock IV in both the official programme and on the brilliant theatre backdrops (pictured) - which tribute would you like to see at Wrinklystock 5? Suggestions on the night included Aerosmith, Status Quo, AC/DC and The Kinks. Although one thing was for certain - everyone wanted to see The Replicants return next year. Anyway let us know your thoughts through the comments box below!

Run For Cover and their alter ego Glamstar play their first gig under the WRC banner at The Railway Tavern in Longfield, Kent, tonight. These guys are obviously not a one trick pony with Classic Rock and 70's Glamrock all in one night and we can tell you that they rock!! The action starts at 9pm - so do yourself a favour and get down there and support live music!!

All roads lead to the iconic 100 Club in Oxford Street, London, tonight to see legendary Mountain drummer Corky Laing and his band "playing Mountain" of course! An added bonus is a delicous undercard of Born Healer (Vid Of The Day) who we introduced you to here in June this year plus BluesRockfest's The Rainbreakers (our Track Of The Day) who memorarably got proceedings under way back on that hot day in July. Born Healer kick off at 7.30pm and if you're going - why not come across and say hello!

Talking of Twitter - one of our latest followers is Diffuser FM out of New York. For a change - and given that we are off to see The Foo Fighters at Wembley in June - our 'Video Of The Day' is taken from the Diffuser FM YouTube Channel - 'Foo Fighters - You Think You Know Rock'?

Just under forty one years after their iconic Charlton gig in 1974 The Who returned to South East London again on Monday night for ‘The Who Hits 50’ gig - albeit two legends down - but still firing on all cylinders. Of course the line "Hope I Die Before I Get Old" has come back to bite them on the bum over the year's - but 'Who' gives a s**t? Rumoured to be their last ever tour, it was not surprising when talking to a few young and old faces before the gig that there were a few Who virgins present. For them it must have felt like one of those compilation albums and how on earth were they going to fit fifty years into a two-hour set? Appropriately ‘I Can’t Explain’ circa ’64 kicked things off and the banter was warming up quite nicely after a slight mess up by Roger on the intro of Substitute. But ‘Who’ cared? Following ‘The Seeker’, Daltrey also took a pop at the powers that be for doing two nights in a row! Early doors and Daltrey was in good form with no sign of the illness that made them postpone the original gig. And Townshend was err… Townshend – jaw-dropping guitar - jaw-dropping energy - jaw-dropping banter! Stick the two of them together and you have an edge unparalleled despite a combined age of 140 years! Then it was off to the late seventies with the powerful ‘Who Are You’ – the night’s most boring stat being that this was the youngest song in the set! The classic ‘I Can See For Miles’ was sandwiched in between ‘The Kids Are Alright’ and ‘Pictures Of Lily’ before we came to the aforementioned iconic ‘My Generation’. It wasn’t chronological but the set list mix was spot on - complemented by the amazing backdrops (check out our photo gallery) plus of course Zak Starkey stepping into the size nine sticks of Keith Moon plus Pino Palladino, with credentials as long as your Bass guitar, taking over from the much missed John Entwhistle. We were then driven back to the late 60’s with ‘Magic Bus’ and before we entered the realm of concept albums – it was the delightful ‘Behind Blue Eyes’ followed by ‘Join Together’ and ‘You Better You Bet’. When we saw The Who perform Quadrophenia in July 2013 – the impressive Simon Townshend certainly put a shift in – not only on guitar but also helping Daltrey with lead vocals. No problems with Daltrey’s vocals tonight, although Simon is still an integral part of his brother’s band as are Loren Gold, Frank Simes and John Corey on keyboards/percussion. Back to Quadrophenia, and yes I know I’m biased, but just two songs? Anyway, Townshend’s performance of ‘I’m One’ was brilliant but Daltrey’s vocals on ‘Love, Reign, O’er Me’ brought a tear to my eye for all the right reasons. The inclusion of the less popular ‘Eminence Front’, ‘So Sad About Us’ and ‘A Quick One’ was a surprise, however this is the perfect launch pad for a bit of ‘Tommy’ and we’re on that ‘Amazing Journey’ of ‘Pinball Wizard’ (have a look at today’s VOTD where Daltrey has another bit of a mare), ‘Sparks’ and the moving ‘See Me Feel Me’. Awesome. The evening is then complete with both ‘Baba O’Riley’ and ‘Won’t Get Fooled Again’ which brings back memories of the very first time I saw The Who along with cutting edge lasers firing across The Valley. No encore’s – but hey – these two OAP’s deserved a rest! The show was certainly not faultless but what a great time we all had. Warning: If you have never seen The Who live - then make sure you see them either at the Albert Hall tomorrow or Hyde Park in June (we will be there) - otherwise you will never forgive yourself! Just ask tonight’s virgins! AJ.

Quietly, in the background and without screaming it from the rooftops, Gary Grainger has done more for the Blues in the UK than many others put together. As a musician he's been playing in bands since the early 70's and was finalist in the 'Emerging Artist' category of The British Blues Awards last year. Whilst making his mark as a performer in his own right, he's also been winning awards as a DJ with 'The Blues Show' for some five years - breaking countless up and coming artists, supporting the careers of the established and generally ensuring that the genre is brought to the widest audience possible. And even with all that going on he's also found the time to pull together such things as a benefit gig for Walter Trout. Now he's making an incredibly rare trip down South from his native North East to bring his live show to The TNMC. What an opportunity for the Blues community to show their appreciation for someone who's done so much. So make your way tonight to the venue at Hooley Hall, St Margarets Road, Hooley Village, Coulsdon, Surrey CR5 3RB and give Gary the welcome he so richly deserves!

Just when we thought that Wrinklystock could not get any better than Bon Giovi ….. well what do we know? When you turn around and see a sold out MJC, Dartford, clapping in unison to Radio Ga Ga - it certainly does leave a lump in your throat. Yes, our 'Video Of The Day' is brand new footage of Wrinklystock III - where we witnessed the sheer professionalism of three bands - the awesome Bohemians plus Stone Blind and The Replicants whose two great support sets certainly set the tone for the evening. Experience a magical evening in more ways than one by ordering your Wrinklystock III DVD/MP3 here. Thanks for your support!
