Great gig with 2 up-and-coming bands strutting their stuff @Stripes. No lack of quality :)

Attendance: 66

Thanks due to both bands and to regular BU Gigs aids; eg Jason Ritchie, Top Cat & Feltham John. Many thanks :wave:

...two very good bands. The Heal just edged it for me as the vocals were less 'shouty' and the drummer ha da bigger bottom end - ooh eer :sorted:

Elita's Rev are back on Aug 20th co-headlining with the excellent Chevrons - a blues rock soul band with a vocalist who sounds like Faces era Rod Stewart.

[Top Cat]

Yup. Both very good and with an entourage of jailbait to die for..... :eek:

The Heal edged it for me (as Dan the Manager bought me a pint... :sorted: )

Some great bands coming up culminating this month in the lushious MTV star Alex Bach on Saturday 17th July :love2: :yes:
