INTERVIEW: Guns N’ Roses guitarist Ron ‘Bumblefoot’ Thal
Friday, July 16th, 2010
It’s official, Guns N’ Roses are lined up to play their first ever Belfast gig. Formed in 1985, Guns N’ Roses became one of the defining rock acts of the late 20th Century, selling over 100 million albums worldwide. However, tensions within the band would see the original line-up slowly crumble away, and by 1997 vocalist Axl Rose was the sole remaining original member. Despite this, Guns N’ Roses soldiered on with a new line-up and in 2008 made their comeback with the highly anticipated album Chinese Democracy. Speaking with The Gown, Ron ‘Bumblefoot’ Thal, who joined the band in 2006, talks about Guns N’ Roses coming to Belfast, playing Chinese Democracy material live, how he got started on guitar and more.

NEWS: Students must pay in order to graduate
Wednesday, June 30th, 2010
As final year students at Queen’s prepare to graduate this summer, many are displeased with the expensive graduation fees. Students must pay £55 in order to graduate. This sum covers the cost of the student’s ticket, gown and hood. A diploma in nursing costs £60 due to the inclusion of the official nursing badge. Students who wish to graduate in absentia must pay £10. Graduates are also expected to pay a further £5 for their degree transcript.
