On February the 14th, while many were out celebrating Valentine’s Day, I was at Mama Stones with some of my single friends! Despite being in second year, this was the first time I had ever been and I must say I had such a good night. Not only was the venue chilled and fun the talent was unbelievably impressive. Tuesday night saw some great acts take the stage and we caught up with the Encore winner Jamie Beaumont to find out more about him and his amazing talent.

How long have you been performing?
I started performing when I was 18 years old. When I was back stage at a school concert I saw some guy start playing the guitar and a load of people sat round him singing with him (they were a bunch of fit girls, great motivation to perform, although it hasn’t seemed increase my lady luck). At that moment I thought, I want that! From then on I taught myself to play the guitar and sing, never have I had a lesson.

How would you describe your work?
I wouldn’t describe gigs as work at all, it’s the one thing in life I truly love doing. Most of the gigs I do, I do for free. I suppose you could call it the only true love I have; maybe the fact that girls love a musician and you get described as potentially being cool. Whether or not I’m the ‘cool musician’ I don’t know, the jury’s still out on that one...

Spencer: Made in Exeter

2/11/2012

It’s not very often Exeter plays host to a celebrity but last Monday at Mosaic, thanks to 4play Events, the students of Exeter University had the opportunity to get up close and personal with Made in Chelsea star Spencer Matthews!

For those of you who are not familiar with the series Made in Chelsea it is a reality TV series on E4, following a group of posh totties in and around their daily business in London’s most upmarket hotspot, Chelsea.

The night began in anticipation of Spencer’s arrival. A red carpet and roped of area in the downstairs section of the club signified the celebrity status due to arrive. The crowds started off few but it gradually became obvious that the star was soon due to arrive. Bodies began to queue to be first in line to meet the celebrity and it soon became a test of how good I was at holding my ground in the high heels I was wearing as a slight mosh-pit of females steadily formed.

Spencer arrived! Many were quite obviously star struck as the squeals and yelps of many girls rang through the club. I was expecting at this moment in time for the real pushing and shoving to begin but surprisingly everyone queued nicely and all had equal opportunity to meet Spencer and get their photo taken with him. A round of applause must be given to the security as this order was maintained throughout the night which all and all made the night much more enjoyable.
