14.05.07 An unusual, but interesting request came via Jean of MMF "The annual Yak Fest (rehearsal/jam) is next weekend (19/20 May) in Metheringham. Our Bassist Max has blown us out with a week to go - in spite of this being scheduled for many months. The "gig" will still go ahead, but if there are any progressive ish bass players out there that would be interested in jamming along this weekend & are not too far from Lincs - please contact us asap. Apart from jamming in what is now generally accepted to be the saddest of all keys - D minor - we will be rehearsing the track 'Jadis of Charn' which is now streaming on our page - so have a listen & let us know if you're up for it."

04.05.07 As you're all probably aware, the last gig at Christopher's on Newland is this coming Monday (7 May), which is a ska / punk mini festival. It kicks off at 2.00pm and entry is free. The venue, which has been in operation, under Neil, the current licensee for 18 months saw hundreds of bands grace its stage. The premises have been sold to another pub / development chain and is unlikely to continue as a venue. Personally, I would like to thank Neil for his support of this site and for his enthusiasm for the local music scene. And I'm sure you'll join me in wishing him well in future endeavours. On a related note, RaW, the promo company that put bands on each Saturday at Christopher's have already found a new venue. They will continue promoting at The Mezz Bar (The Pavillions Student Village, along from McDonalds at the Uni Bridge) |
