08upfront
It’s the time of the year when Buzz throws together
its glitzy roundup of the summer’s biggest and/or best films, and if you are a young person or have designs on going to the cinema with a young person, the bulk of the studios’ output seems to be aimed at you. Plus the Hay Festival, La Roux and more
20stuff
Goths given short shrift in Buzz for the 198th issue in a row as this page focuses on pastel colours and things made out of wicker, in the name of ‘picnics‘
22-23beauty+fashion
More colourful flowery foofaraw to distract you from
the fascist dictatorship we will probably be living under shortly after this magazine comes out (turn to p.70 for a counterpoint)
24sport
Photos of men from the sports of football, cricket and
rugby waving their hands in the air, plus an appraisal of Gareth Bale, the Joe Satriani of the left-side touchline. My attempts to edit the column into a piece of slash fiction were sadly rebuked
26travel
In 1873, the cities of Buda and Pest in Hungary were united to form Budapest. If only it had been Székesfehérvár instead of Buda, then we would be doing a travel piece on the city of Székespest
28film
Low average scores handed out by Keiron Self this
month, but a high level of opportunity for closing sentences punning on the film’s title or subject
30food&drink
High average scores handed out by our in-house gluttons, conversely, amidst a headsup about the Cardiff Vegetarian Food Festival that gently mocks vegetarians (and was also written by one, before you write in)
38previews
As one of the most prudish and easily offended
people in Britain, let me just say that the photos which illustrate the clubs page, of stocky men staring unsmilingly at either the camera or a pair of decks, are an oasis of temperance compared to the sandstorm of T&A on the other preview pages
46reviews
Wales indie kids don their black-framed glasses and
badly fitting t-shirts to become serenading reviewers. With semi-inspired verbal fumbling and ridiculous opinions about Alabama 3 and John Mouse, it’s clear they’ve had a temporary identity exchange. They maintain their edge by having the guts to score-give; even better, they carry off their alternative persona admirably
50listings
A lot of you have been writing in about this, so it’s a
pleasure to be able to lift the embargo and confirm that Librarian’s Worst Nightmare and The Flaming Ferrets really are playing Rock At The Park 2 in Merthyr Tydfil
70competitions
My horoscope said that in May I would find myself attending an event described as a combination of V Festival, Cartier Cup Polo and Dubai 7s, so imagine my surprise when this was one of the prizes on this month’s competition page
