So this is what happens when you start composing music at three years old… This medley is amazing and give it a listen if a have a spare 6 minutes.
Until next time,

Edinburgh Fringe Pt 2
18 SepHere we are, part 2 of our Edinburgh journey! (If you haven’t seen part 1, click here.)
Saturday started off with Tony Law and his aptly namely Nonsense Overdrive show. How can you not love a man who enters the room with light up rings and a head torch strapped to his top hat? A great show, with lots of surreal stories and a trip into outer space.
After that we headed over to Pleasance Courtyard for I Need A Doctor, which was hilarious! The premise was that the writers (who were also the actors, the whole 2 of them) had trouble with the copyright and as a result, had to change certain phrases and lyrics in their musical, which lead to non-rhyming songs and bizarre nemeses. A very funny hour it was, you know when your cheeks hurt from laughing that you’re in the right place.
Half an hour after the Whosical musical and about half an hour’s walk away, was Stella Graham; a fine comic who told us the troubles of working at summer camps in America (parents will sue you), a story involving curley chips and the c word, and who used to have a mullet (she provided us with photographic evidence).
The evening’s show was 4.48 Psychosis. Now I don’t know if you know about 4.48 Psychosis (is it still part of GCSE drama?) but it’s a piece of writing by Sarah Kane in 24 sections with no stage directions, characters or settings. Seen by some as the writer’s suicide note, it’s been the subject of much debate and interpretation when performed. The production we saw – DEM Productions – intermixed normal everyday conversation, settings and characters with Kane’s abstract prose. It worked well but there wasn’t really any closure (though I didn’t think there would be) as it just ended.
Sunday was a later start to the day, watching an impressive piece of physical comedy in The Sword & I. The tale of an invisible sword that has terrible and magical properties were interspersed with accents clouds, punctuation and pretending to be a small South American mammal.
The evening began with Caroline Rhea (Aunt Hilda!) who was on top form and possibly the best event at the Fringe. Matchmaker extraordinaire and lover of star signs, she was hysterically funny and I was genuinely gutted when the hour was up.
Mr B The Gentleman Rhymer finished off our day with a superb set of covers and originals, including his Six Ages of Love. There was dancing, naps and fabulous banjolele solos.
The next morning was spent wondering round the city, stopping off at our favourite new café the Elephant House before heading over to the Assembly Rooms for Avenue Q featuring a Scottish Trekkie Monster. Harry Styles* made for a wonderful Nicky and the show was fun as it usually is.

The rest of the day was spent exploring the castle and taking pretentious pictures which is what happens when you run out of colour film and have to revert to black and white.
All in all it was a brilliant week and I would definitely go back!
*No, not really. It was off putting how much he looked like him though.

Edinburgh Fringe Pt I
13 SepThe idea to go to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival came about at the beginning of the year and was jumped on with enthusiasm and delight by Sarah and me. There was endless flicking through the gigantic programme that was sent out and scrolling through their website for shows and events to see. I do love planning things!
Luckily, having a similar taste in humour, it wasn’t hard to find things we both found interesting. Tickets were ordered for cabaret acts, music and even a few theatre pieces. Most of the shows last for an hour and there are also plenty of free things available to see, from the obvious street performers to an excellent murder mystery and a very interesting one-woman play about Bette Davis.
We arrived on a Tuesday and after booking into our B&B, headed straight back out for our first performance. The Creative Martyrs’ After The Apocalypse was delightful and I fully recommended going to see something the day you arrive if you can. The basis of the show is that the inevitable apocalypse arrives halfway through one of the duo’s performances and survivors make their way over to the musical hall; hilarity ensues.
It was an hour of songs, comedy and political campaigns that I would have happily paid for (the show was free) and would leap at the chance of seeing again.
The next day was an early one; our first show was at 10 on the top deck of a bus at the Free Sisters. Miss Clara Bell was a funny, piano playing girl who stored chocolate down her top. Interesting observations about moustaches were made and correct Twitter etiquette was discussed – do we ‘tweet’ or ‘twot’?

After the squishy chocolate we headed over to Biddy Mulligans Bar for For The Love of Folk aka an Irish chap called Raymond playing his guitar in a tiny, tiny pub. The songs were accompanied by short intros or stories about them; recurring themes were drinking, love, prison and fighting. Funny, charming and educational, it was a wonderful way to spend 90 minutes. (Props to the guys in the corner for singing along.)
In the evening we had a troupe of Aussies called Instant Order doing a Harry Potter themed trial by audience. Someone had been murdered and audience members got to decide the witnesses’ houses, patronus and favourite spells. I mean come on, how many duck patronuses have you heard of? Another hour that went by far too quickly, with laughs coming thick and fast.
Next up was EastEnd Cabaret who were filthy and oh so hilarious! Manbeasts, gin and creepy photoshopped images of Meatloaf filled the hour and it felt like it was over in a flash. I wasn’t so fond of the Rohypnol song though; it just all more creepy than funny.
Day number 3 started off with Bette Davis Ain’t For Sisses, an interesting look at the actress on the night before the 1939 Oscars. I can’t help but feel that it would have been more enjoyable if I knew more about Bette Davis. Nonetheless, I liked the show very much and was another free one I would have paid for.
The evening show was The Bloody Ballad, which was amazing! A rock n’ roll fuelled musical about murder, manslaughter and true love. It starts with a girl called Mary recounting her story along with her band, The Missin’ Fingers of how she met a boy and the chaos that ensued. It was a hell of a lot of fun!
The next morning we were up bright and early for The Hawke Papers at The Blind Poet. Now this was good: an interactive murder mystery set in the 19th century, someone has died (obviously) and another is incorrectly identified as the murderer. The audience’s role as detective is to question and frisk (!) other witnesses and gather evidence.
Immediately after was Blues and Burlesque and, lucky for us, it was at the same venue! It was OK. There two girls, one stripped while the other sang amusing songs including a jazz cover of Boom Boom Boom by The Outhere Brothers.
Our show for the evening was Emilie Autumn, which was a bit disappointing. Don’t get me wrong, I love Emilie Autumn but she didn’t play many songs and the crowd didn’t seem very lively. There was an amusing re-enactment of some fan fiction (the things people write…) and it was visually stunning but it never really came to anything.
In between shows we wondered around the city, watching street performers, finding fantastic places to eat and traipsing around the museum. Edinburgh is such a fantastic city and there was no end of things to do. True story: we unintentionally raced Stephen Moffat up some steps and won!

Next week, part two of our Edinburgh Adventure featuring Avenue Q, Aunt Hilda and a castle!
Soundtrack for summer
5 AugA simple, eclectic playlist to get you ready (if you aren’t already) for any summer’s day*!
The Beatles – Here Comes The Sun. Classic.
Nina Simone – Ain’t Got No – I Got Life. Yes, it’s the one from that advert; Simone has such a fantastic voice, her cover of Here Comes The Sun is also worth a listen.
Elbow – One Day Like This. Oh god. They played this at Reading a couple of years ago and it was perfect.
Yann Tierson – La Valse D’amélie (Version Originale). In fact the entire Amélie soundtrack is a summer staple. Can’t you just picture yourself wondering round the streets of Paris with this playing in the background? Oh to have your own portable orchestra…
The Kinks – Sunny Afternoon. A must have, preferably listen to it whilst having an ice-cold beer. Your life may be turning to s**t around you, but so long as the sun is shining, you’re golden.
The Blanks – Teenagers Forget Streisand Because The Only Girl Is Cooler Than Dynamite. Contender for the longest song title ever, this wonderful a capella mash up is wonderful.
ELO – Mr. Blue Sky. An obvious choice but a must have! The song changes pace a bit towards the end but the duelling choirs are fabulous.
Nick 13 – 101. Summer is made for aimless drives and roadtrips. All the better if you own your own Thunderbird or Cadillac.
Leftover Cuties – When You’re Smiling. A brilliant cover of the classic – the ukulele and old timey trumpet is a superb spin and makes for a purely fun version of the song.
Guilty Pleasure Summer Tune:
Avril Lavigne – Here’s To Never Growning Up. This is TERRIBLE song. But there’s just something about it, you know when you can’t quite put your finger on it? Catchy chorus, semi relatable lyrics, criminally overused ‘whoas’; it’s all there. And good girl Avril, marrying Chad Kroger so that no one else has to. It had to be someone.
*Any summer’s day is vastly improved with the addition of some Pimm’s, a barbeque and it’d be handy if you had your own swimming pool.

Love Letter to the 90s
7 JunMy 90s were spent listening to pop music: embarrassing, sugary sweet, bubblegum pop. With Viva Forever at the West End, the Backstreet Boys receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and the Big Reunion on TV, my mind has slipped back to that time and I have unashamedly been listening to some classic gems from the era.
So gather round, grab your glittery temporary tattoos and Hubba Bubba Bubble Tape and let’s delve into the strange thing that was 90s music.
Spice Girls – Stop. I can’t believe this didn’t get to number 1! It had great hooks, a dance routine and was insanely catchy. The Spice Girls will forever be my favourite pop group and they taught the best lesson of all: girl power.
B*Witched – To You I Belong. Possibly the deepest thing a 7 year old could listen to.
Steps – Love U More. The strangest and most difficult dance routine I ever attempted… This brings back memories of the legendary Steps Video with the flying sofa and dodgy CGI backgrounds.
TLC – Unpretty. Creepy flying CCTV cameras aside, don’t let society impose their ideals of beauty on you.
Five – Keep On Movin’. I was more of a girl groups kid but Five were alright. It’s one of those feel good songs that you can’t help but like.
Backstreet Boys – Everybody (Backstreet’s Back). This video. I can’t even.
S Club 7 – Bring It All Back. Yup, I went there. Remember the TV shows? The bad acting? It all comes flooding back now… Not the best group of the 90s but still enjoyable.
Billie – Because We Want To. Long before running around on the small screen with Christopher Eccleston, Billie Piper was a pop star. This was an anthem for girls everywhere and if memory serves, I think I had this single on a cassette tape back in the day.
Eiffel 65 – Blue (Da Ba Dee). Don’t worry- I liked it when this showed up in Iron Man 3 too.
Cher – Believe. Possibly the ultimate 90s song and one of the first uses of Auto Tune, I honestly thought it was a man singing the first time I heard it. I love it.
In other news: how long will it be for films and TV shows set in the 90s to be defined as ‘period pieces’?

Bad direction
15 MayWe’ve all heard of them. If you haven’t, I’m wondering what cave you’ve been hiding in and if there’s any more room? No, in all seriousness, since being on the X Factor One Direction, have become one of the biggest selling boybands of all time. Their ‘Directioners’ are nothing but supportive and will certainly not let their beloved boys receive any insult without strongly defending them.
The group originally started out as five separate boys auditioning for the show, but the judges decided to put them all together as a group, believing that they would work better this way. They were right! Louis, Zayn, Harry, Liam and Niall have been booted to stardom since winning third place. I have one gripe with this band however and that’s not Harry’s continued publicity with present/ex/who the fuck cares what the tabloids make up, girlfriend, Taylor Swift; it is in fact their songs.
Their first song, in my opinion is amazing. What Makes you Beautiful, is a brilliant message to send to their legions of young female fans worldwide. This song talks about how a girl is beautiful but she doesn’t realise it. This is a lovely message to send. In a way, this could be saying that all of you girls out there who think you are ugly or are struggling with self-esteem issues, you are still beautiful no matter what you think and there is someone who realises this even if you are unsure of it yourself. I believed that this band really had potential and they did. They really had potential to show young women how to feel about themselves, which is what Yellow Bunting aims to do. For such a major emerging popular band, this is such a breakthrough. However they ruined this with another song…
‘Let’s go crazy, crazy, crazy til we see the sun’, ‘hey girl, it’s now or never’ and ‘if we get together, don’t let the pictures leave your phone’ are just some of the examples of lyrics of Live while we’re young. In fact the chorus of the song is ‘tonight let’s get some and live while we’re young’. With a catchy beat, I even find myself nodding along to this song on the radio and can quite imagine plenty of teenage girls dancing around in their bedrooms to quite frankly these disgusting lyrics. Now I’m not one for these scapegoats for how society acts. I don’t agree that the Columbine shooting had anything to do with Marilyn Manson or his music but maybe a lot to do with the lax gun laws in America. However for such a publicised fashionable band to like, I cannot believe that they are allowed to release this kind of material. Especially when it is quite common for pictures to get out of girls by their male counterparts, telling girls not to let ‘the pictures leave your phone’ can only end badly. This isn’t my main gripe with the song however. The lyrics, ‘I know we only met but pretend its love’. In other words, we’ve just met but let’s pretend we’re in love so we can fuck all night.
However with five young boys in the band, is this the right publicity stunt to give them? Aren’t they meant to come across as clean cut? Now I’m not saying that younger girls are easily influenced but for their record company to release this song sends feminism back a number of years and teenage pregnancies up higher. Not because the target audience is influential but because this song makes it seem that there is nothing wrong with just sleeping around. And also some of the audience may be easily influenced: is it their duty as they are in the limelight to send out the right message?
Sending a bad message out is however not a new thing. Popular 90’s band, The Spice Girls, released many songs with titles and lyrics that were meant to connote different things that young ears should maybe not hear. (The age group for the Spice Girls was probably a tad younger than for One Direction). But with modern culture seeming to decline in any morale and kindness for others, is this then more reason to promote good feeling about yourself and not sleeping around? Like in What Makes you Beautiful, did they have it right the first time?
But is it the band’s right to influence their fans? Or should they just be able to go on and live their lives? Although they don’t have to bring it into their music. Whatever artists say is forever recorded in papers and in the press and can be brought back at any moment. If JK Rowling, in the height of Harry Potter, had said pretend you’re in love so that you can fuck around, there would have been outrage because of her younger readers. However because these are five young boys, it seems to have been ignored. So do these boys owe something to their fans to be somewhat of a good influence? Or is this just modern culture and we need to get used to it? Or is it in fact just a catchy tune that no one listens to the lyrics of? Well let me just ask you this, do you not find it easier to sing along to your favourite song rather than revise maths? The lyrics stick in your head. I for one can admit to listening to sad songs, trying to make them fit to my situation at hand. So what do you think Yellow Bunting readers? Do One Direction owe it to their fans and modern culture to send a good message out or can they simply go in a bad direction?
About the Writer: Becky has just finished a degree in English and Creative Writing and is very happy with her 2:1. She is friendly, bubbly and just so happens to be the co-creator of Yellow Bunting. She hopes you enjoy it and that you get involved!
2013: The New 2003?
10 MayIf you know Catherine or I, you’ll know that we like to pretend that we’re wise, old women who had great music to listen to while we were growing up. This seemed to peak in 2003 with albums like Sleeping With Ghosts, Absolution, The Dresden Dolls, Coral Fang and E.Von Dahl Killed The Locals being released. Unfortunately we are now in a state of despair because today’s music isn’t living up to our expectations. And I don’t just mean the addition of Justin Beiber, Taylor Swift or Adele to the music scene, I mean people like Alkaline Trio and The Ataris. Musicians and bands we listened to in 2003 that have waned recently.
However, recent and not so recent announcements have got me all kinds of excited for 2013 and reclaiming good music and here’s why:
-New Devil Doll album. This Facebook status from last year mentions a new album for 2013 and I couldn’t be happier. Although I preferred Queen of Pain to The Return of Eve, I’ll be interested with the sound for this album. Though both were very sexy [cold shower anyone?] Queen of Pain was jazzier than the country influenced Return of Eve. Could we have some form of country-jazz fusion? Most probably not.
-New Creepshow album. They’ve been demoing for a while and finally made the announcement a few weeks ago that they were in the studio, recording proper. Sell Your Soul and They All Fall Down are superb albums though I can’t say the same for Run For Your Life. It’ll also be interesting to hear yet another singer for the band: what will they be like without a Blackwood?
-New AFI album [if this weird video is anything to go by]. Mr Havok released a book about a month ago, which I have yet to read but hand on heart I’m more enthusiastic about their new album. Crash Love was a welcome release after December Underground [thank god for Black Audio which seems to be feeding Davey and Jade’s electro habit] though my favourite will forever be Sing the Sorrow.
-New Less Than Jake album. Their first LP of new material since GNV, FLA after the few EPs they’ve released. I’m intrigued with how they’ll sound. As I’ve mentioned before In With The Out Crowd was not an LTJ album, but GNV, FLA sounded very much like their old stuff. Hmmm… Tricky, but nonetheless I’m still looking forward to it.
-Bitter Ruin are building their own studio. They did a rather successful Kickstarter to back the new album/studio, which at the time of writing is £9,000 over their intended target of £20,000. I admit that on a first listen, their music seems a bit strange but We’re Not Dancing is a brilliant release and they’ve got such a unique sound, I’ll definitely be keeping an ear out for this one.
-New Imelda May album. After having an adorable baby in 2012, Imelda May stated she’ll be back in the studio this year and that the album will hopefully be out by the end of 2013. While I didn’t love Mayhem as much as Love Tattoo, her albums have all been solid, splendid pieces of work and I eagerly await the end of the year [not that I’m trying to wish the time away].
-New Manics album? Possibly if this status is anything to go by! Let’s not talk about Lifeblood and move swiftly on, shall we? Send Away The Tigers saw the band return to form [thank goodness] and let’s not forget their epic cover of Rihanna’s Umbrella a year later. Journal For Plague Lovers was a brave release and a fantastic album. In my head I had some preconceptions and possibly hesitations about what it would sound like but they were dashed as soon as I started listening to it. Postcards From a Young Man was good, but not as good as it’s predecessor. I’m looking forward to it, but not necessarily the limited-edition-bonus-demo-tracks-on-a-whole-other-album they seem to being doing a lot of lately…

Beyoncé
15 AprHappy belated Easter lovely people! Hope you have eaten a ridiculous amount of chocolate, I know I have eaten my mum out of house at home. Back to the diet this week and I am focused and exercising in full force. I spent my double whammy bank holiday weekend camping with my family and the weather was lush and it was a really nice break. What did you all do with your Easter weekend? Let us know on Facebook and Twitter @Yellow_Bunting.
Anyway let’s move on to the nitty gritty journalism! So, in the last issue I spoke about my the difference between today’s role models and past revolutionary women. I spent a lot of time thinking about this and it saddened me that role models like Irena Sendler no longer openly exist in our society. However, we have to remember that times have changed and a lot of ideas surrounding feminine independence have changed. Due to this train of thought I have decided to commit to a little project aiming to find modern day influential female role models whose lives and actions I want to share with you guys. Over the next 10 issues, I will be dedicating my writings towards inspirational women of our society.
Now, I’m a great believer in fate and a book I’m reading at the moment has taught me to trust in chance conversations, to never treat them as coincidence and use them to inspire my work. That’s the best advice I have ever accepted in regards to writing and that’s how I found female number one…
Some of you may have watched a documentary last week about Beyoncé titled “Life is But a Dream.” I never planned on tuning in because although I do enjoy her music and her persona I’ve never been a hardcore fan of hers. However, my friend was itching to watch it and I had nothing better to do so I gave it a shot. If you haven’t watched it yet I highly recommend it because it was an amazing 90 minutes of television that for once didn’t feel like a waste of time.
Beyoncé seems like such an obvious choice I know, but from what I have seen from her in this documentary she is so much more than what I thought she was. For starters, she is a massively famous celebrity yet she strives to keep her personal life as private as possible and that in itself is such a respectable quality to have.
Having directed the documentary herself, it could be said that the truth and insight into her life may be slightly twisted but I still stand by my views that she sets herself aside from the standard celebrity lifestyle. Isabel Mohan reviews the documentary here and quotes “as a performer, she’s compared to Rihanna, but in reality, the pair are very different. While Rihanna spends her evenings partying, Beyoncé enjoys cosy chats with her girlfriends and pondering her faith in God.” In truth she is just like you and I except she has an extroverted alto ego by the name of Sasha Fierce…
One thing about her that plastered a smile across my face was the fact that all the interview footage and personal footage was taken of her without a trace of makeup on her face. That was such a graceful statement to modern day femininity; in a superficial culture that states women are only beautiful when masked in paint, Beyoncé simply informs us that we are natural and don’t deserve to be hidden away like that. She never outwardly says that was her intention but in this instance it’s what is unsaid that counts.
While writing this article I wanted to find quotes from Beyonce about being an open feminist. I found this article about Beyoncé as a feminist and at first I thought the article was slating her feminism because of her willingness to pose in underwear for men’s magazines but Aisha Mirza is simply saying that we are all women on a journey and sometimes we do contradict ourselves, going against previous statements. That is a fair point! I mean we all take pictures of ourselves for Facebook/Twitter/Instagram but so do men. Women are no less provocative than men and that’s what’s misunderstood. I will never upload a picture of myself without makeup on for insecurity purposes and that’s my choice. I wear a bikini on holiday and I take care of my appearance but that doesn’t mean I am any less of a feminist than Germaine Greer.
This is the point I’m making here about modern day feminism. People assume it’s a lack of femininity but in fact it’s the complete opposite of that. Beyoncé talks about her “Run the World” performance in her documentary:
“Nobody knew I was pregnant during that performance, and I’m cool with that. I’m not interested in a free ride, but it absolutely proved to me that women have to work much harder to make it in this world. It really pisses me off that women don’t get the same opportunities as men do, or money, for that matter. Because let’s face it, money gives men the power to run the show. Its gives men the power to define our values, and to define what’s sexy and what’s feminine and that’s bullshit. At the end of the day, it’s not about equal rights, it’s about how we think. We have to reshape our own perception of how we view ourselves. We have to step up as women and take the lead and reach as high as humanly possible. That’s what I’m going to do. That’s my philosophy and that’s what Girls is all about.”
This quote is perfect in describing feminism from my point of view. If I want to take my clothes off, wear makeup, not wear makeup, wear a bikini on holiday, that’s my choice. The whole point of this view is that these are our bodies and it’s our decision what we do with them. The reason I write for this society changing magazine, the reason I have such strong convictions is because I am sick and tired of living in a society that tells women how to live.
Yes, Beyoncé wears revealing clothing, yes she wears makeup, yes she poses for magazines wearing just underwear…but these are all her decisions; choices she has made in a body owned by her and in a body she feels comfortable and whole within. I think she is incredibly inspiring and despite what people say, she is a positive role model to follow.
Feminism isn’t about becoming like men; it’s about ownership, independence and being defined by ourselves not others.

So Long And Goodnight
29 MarYou may or may not have heard by now that My Chemical Romance has split up. [Yes, I was that kind of teenager.]
When Catherine announced it on Facebook late Saturday night, it was already old news, but it was the first I’d heard about it and I was shocked, no really, I was inconsolable for about 15 minutes. Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge was a big part of the soundtrack to my life circa 2004-6 and upon reading the news the 14 year old me wasn’t the least bit happy.
And then I started to reminisce [as you do]. Watching the HD videos on YouTube was a far cry from originally watching them on the band’s site at a hideously low picture quality. Memories of Kerrang magazine and pull out posters were conjured in my head and I somehow ended up on MCR tag on tumblr. Boy is that place awash with emotions right now! Kids posting their favourite photos, lyrics, videos, songs, even photos of their own CD collection [one of which was superb: MCR, Sum 41, Green Day, Blink 182 and Fall Out Boy] and I thought to myself ‘wow, teens are young these days’. Lord know what I would be like if I had tumblr when I was younger [Freewebs was bad enough].
To me, MCR were the band whose lyrics you scrawled on the front of art books, diaries and arms. They taught me not to give a fuck and that that hellish thing called school would all be over soon. They meant a lot to me when I was younger [though I hasten to add I wasn’t one of those kids that did the whole ‘emo’ thing, with the fringe] I do not, for one minute, regret the amount of eyeliner I bought because of them.
image from here
The above image was in sticker form on my art book. Ahhh memories…
So, here’s to you My Chemical Romance! You were brilliant and oh-so sassy. And to celebrate the end of things [of sorts] lets drink cheap champagne and listen to this playlist.
