HARD TO HANDLE

sat 27 jan 2006

,

Sat night saw the locals & a few of there friends well & truly entertained by the 5 members of HARD TO HANDLE who crambed in two excellent spots of classic numbers which appealed to everyones tastes

with some belting & cracking vocals to some great guitar & bass play supported by an ecceptional drummer who even managed to get into the act, taking up the vocals on one of three numbers

This is one hell of a close knit band that should be on top of everyones list to see if they are appearing @ a venue near you

hopefully it wont be too long before the are back @ the keys

Just like to say a big thanks to steve the bass player for saying hi & having a natter in the short time they had of a break & will hope to meet him again quite soon

RESURGENCE

Sat 20th Jan

.

The boys & girls from resurgence livenEd up a (sorry to say) rather below par bunch of peeps last night @ the keys, I must appologise myself for turning up late too ,the band did two hard working spots adding their own unique sound to such classics as rockin in the free world which i thought was as near as damit as you can get to the real macoy & radioheads classic creep, even slotting in a a bit of ramones i wana be sedated which had wifey tapping her feet

all in all good nights performace by the boys & girls

so stick resurgence on your to watch list as i dont think there will be many disapointments on that score

till my next ramblings !

PISTON BROKE

SAT 7 JAN
.

Well the new year seems to got off to a cracking start with this sats band PISTON BROKE

from what i can gather i think they might be a cleckheaton based band as they seem to keep refering back to the wild west town

They came over as a well routined tight outfit in the great Lemmys Motorhead style

they played all motorheads best known numbers, and for those not the doctrine of Lemmy they then threw themselves into a lot of classic stuff from lizzy/led zep & even a sprinkling of mountain plus the cult before the had the peeps rocking with the great AC/DC numbers

a great biker boys band , they deffo kept a good cross keys crowd rocking to the end

catch you all laters
