Motherwell Concert Hall – Tai Kwon Do Awards

This was very much a last minute booking and as we already had all our gear at the concert hall we were more than happy to accept another night.  While we were sound checking we noticed several children enter the hall and by the time we had finished sound checking there were about 50 children [...]

Motherwell Concert Hall – Xmas Party 2

We were a bit late arriving to the concert hall for our penultimate party night and didnt have time to sound check.  The night went very much like the last 2 as we had dancers from the outset and by the end of the night the place was bouncing.  I had a bit of a [...]

Bar 29 Gig for Imperial Tobacco

I left work in Glasgow to head into Royal Exchange Square at 4.30pm and didnt get there until 5.30pm as the traffic was crazy.  It was the last late night shopping Thursday before Christmas and the city centre was rammed.  After the sat nav sent me to a few strange places I eventually ended up [...]

Motherwell Concert Hall – James Bond Social Work Party

When we arrived they hall had been changed into a shrine to James Bond and there were images scattered throughout.  They were a bit late getting started so we didnt get started until 9.30pm.  We started off with our own tribute to 007 with our version of Nobody Does it Better then went on to play the [...]

Motherwell Concert Hall – Xmas Party 1

We took to the stage at 9pm and kicked off proceedings with Sweet Home Alabama.  The 600 strong crowd immediately took to the floor and were there for the remainder of the set as we powered through song after song.  They danced and sang along throughout our first hour’s set and after finishing off the [...]

Butchers Arms Weekend

Daz and I arrived about 8.30pm and were delighted to see that Iain and Robbie had already unloaded most of the gear from the van into the pub.  Happy times!!  Well………until we realised that we had left Iains drum stick bag and Darren’s bag containing guitar accessories back in Falkirk…..Sad Times!! 
I gave Darren all of [...]

Brightons Inn, Falkirk

A very quiet start to the evening, which we expected as it had only been 14 days since our last visit to The Brae’s Finest, however we used it to our advantage.  We have been rehearsing new material in he studio recently and felt this was the best opportunity to try it out.  We started [...]

Full Stop, Falkirk

Our first visit to Falkirk town centre in 2 years…we picked the wrong night for it.  Many of our friends and family had intimated their desire to have uas back playing in Falkirk again however with several other events happening on the same evening it made is difficult to get as many people along to [...]

Simon’s Got Talent – The Arches, Glasgow

The busiest and best “Rock Bandeoke Event” we have had the pleasure of playing at so far!!
We kicked the night off with a couple of songs to warm up the crowd before they started putting their names down to join the band and unleash their inner rock god.  The night started well with songs like Summer [...]

King Hakkon Bar, Skye Weekend

We were a bit late leaving for Skye due to problems with our van hire so didnt arrive until pretty late and therefore didnt start until 10.15pm.  The pub was mobbed with backpackers who had obviously had a long day as the pub seemed to get quieter as 1am approached.  Still, a decent gig was [...]
