My Interests

I started Fireworks Magazine back in 2000 to cater for MY kind of music, that all the so called rock mags today seem to have forgotten about. Good old-fashioned, good-time hard rock! Music that is FUN and puts a smile on your face. Who needs depressing, angst-ridden noise?? Not me, that's for sure. So give me my 80's hair metal, my AOR and progressive rock, my melodic metal and classic rock. You'll find all that and more in here.Anyone into this music, please add me, and join our community!Since last year, we've also started putting on live festivals, having now done two Firefest shows. Bands appearing have included: Firehouse, TNT, Soul Sirkus, Pink Cream 69, Danger Danger, House of Lords, Danny Vaughn, Shy, Dare, Blue Tears, Legs Diamond, Casanova, Power Quest and more!!Here's to Firefest 4 in 2007!!

I'd like to meet:

You want more (ANY?) 80's melodic hard rock in the UK? We've already brought over Firehouse, Tyketto, Danger Danger, House of Lords, Harem Scarem, Soul Sirkus ... but we NEED bigger crowds and more support from the FANS! That's YOU!!Like-minded people to join in the fun and help spread the word about Fireworks - the number 1 magazine for OUR type of music - melodic hard rock!!
