]]> After a manic May Bank Holiday we treated ourselves to a rare weekend off. Peter tended to his garden, Phil went rambling with his walking group and Anth spent the weekend building Airfix models.

It wasn’t long before we were back to band duties. On Tuesday we took over the bottom floor of As You Like It in Jesmond to shoot a promotional video for the website. As You Like It’s Frangipani makes for a great backdrop that we’d used once before for a photo shoot. We decided to use it again for a promotional video that should soon be on the site.

On Thursday night we headed to the Baltic for the AMV Live Music Battle of The Wedding Bands Showcase. We are always happy to play these showcase events when the company is as helpful and professional as AMV and the surroundings as stunning as The Baltic, Gateshead.

Friday had us back on the pub scene, this time at The Station Killingworth. We’ve been playing the venue for almost three years now and always go down well. Saturday was another local gig, this time a Marquee wedding at The Three Horse Shoes near Cramlington, Northumberland. The weather was perfect and the marquee was packed with hundreds of guests loving our set. Special mention to our guests singers. One great, one not so great!
Finally, Sunday, a day of internal conflict. We grudgingly headed to The Stadium of Light for the wedding of Ben and Alana Devlin, hosted in the River View Suit overlooking the Wear. It pains us to say it but the venue was really nice, the staff sound and the buffet wasn’t just a trough full of cheesy chips. Joking aside, all the best to the happy couple!

If you find yourself at a loose end this Friday then get yourself down to Jesmond for our first ever gig at As You Like It! We are on at half ten and hope to see you there. Click this link for the Facebook events page. Come and do something shameful and we’ll write all about it on here.
