MUSIC REVIEW – Eric Clapton Gig Liverpool

By Marty Mulrooney

What a concert! Clapton has only gotten better with age. Effortlessly cascading through a whole back catalogue of solid gold, he has easily proved that age means little when you have an endless supply of raw talent. By the end, every last person was standing, euphoric electricity thick in the air. Genius. Vids to follow soon (when the hangover clears and I become less of a bias fanboy!)

The Final Page of Alternative Magazine

By Marty Mulrooney

I have finally, after 3 hours of photoshopping and trial and error, finished the final page of my magazine for my degree. I am very proud of the final result, and also the fact that it is now all so very close to being printed! Special thanks go out to my Lecturer Paddy Hoey who has been an excellent mentor this year, as well as my online colleagues Igor Hardy (who I did my first online article for) and Philip Jong (my Editor-in-chief at adventureclassicgaming.com, who has always encouraged me and has given me great experience working as a writer for his site.) And of course my girlfriend Kathryn for checking over everything I do! Good job on the quality control! I hope Alternative will continue to grow and that my writing continues to entertain. Thank you all.
