A double header weekend to sign off 2017
Hi everyone.
It’s a busy weekend ahead with Saturday and Sunday night shows at TWO new venues for us. We haven’t done a ‘double-header’ weekend for some time so this will test the stamina but hey, what better way to spend a December weekend? Definitely way better than xmas shopping that’s for sure!
First up, on the Saturday evening (2nd Dec) we’re at Marchington Village Hall, near Uttoxeter. We’re told it’s nearly sold out so please check with promoter Paul Needham on 01283 820374 to secure tickets if you fancy coming along. We’re on around 8.30pm.
Then on Sunday (3rd Dec) we return to Birmingham, but this time not to the Roadhouse but to the Hare & Hounds in King’s Heath, where we’ve been invited to headline the local celebrations to mark the 50th anniversary of Pink Floyd’s appearance there. As it’s a Sunday (and no doubt bearing in mind people getting up for work next morning!) we’re on stage at 7.30pm sharp. You should be able to pay on the door (£10) but advance tickets (£8) are available via this link:

These will be our LAST shows of 2017 so make sure you get your fix this weekend! Look forward to seeing some faces old and new at both shows!
Before we sign off, an exciting 2018 lies ahead with our first gig of the year being a slot at the ‘Giants Of Rock’ festival at Butlins in Minehead… just check out the poster here for the names we’re sharing the bill with (Hawkwind, Uriah Hep, Nazareth, Slade, Manfred Mann’s Earth Band as well as the main guys from bands such as Toto, Boston, Wishbone Ash…… and so on!) We’re playing on the Sunday but will definitely be there the day before to take in some of these amazing bands… it’s an honour to be invited to be a part of an event such as this. Can’t wait!
Then, after Minehead, we have returns to the Flowerpot in Derby in February, The Queen’s Hall in Nuneaton in March, The Swan Theatre in April and Norden Farm Centre For The Arts in Maidenhead and The Benn Hall in Rubgy in June. Loads to look forward to. All confirmed gigs/shows are on the ‘Live’ page of this website.
Right, that’s all for now… make sure you have a good one folks!
Shine On.
