JULY 9 Dream Theater Rock 'N Malta presents pro- gressive metal pioneers Dream Theater promising a unique, complex yet melodic, hard yet emotional brand of rock which is as sweet on the heart as it is crushing on the bones.

JULY 18 Liam Gallagher Live in Malta If you had to make an equation of all the elements that made the early Oasis singles so apoca- lyptically good - i.e. huge waves of guitar hooks + melody you can't shake for…ever + thunder- ous rhythm + Liam Gallagher's voice delivering an unbeliev- ably catchy chorus - then Wall Of Glass fits in the lineage per- fectly. It's hard to recall a time he's sung better - it's like hear- ing him for the first time again, the same yearning menace that claimed a million hearts by the end of Supersonic's first chorus. His voice is definitely on point. Date: Thursday 18th July. Ven- ue: Il-Fosos.
