For those of you that don’t know Mr. Lynch it’s one of our favorite venues to play in the North East. It’s located just outside of Newcastle and is easy to get to being close to Jesmond Metro Station or just a 10 minute walk from the centre of town. It’s got a great atmosphere, cool surroundings, an excellent choice of drinks and some of the regions top bands play there (obviously).

After two successful gigs at Beamish Hall as part of their 2013 Christmas events we are really pleased to announce that we have been rebooked for this year. Not only will we be entertaining Christmas guests on December 12th and 13th as part of their Christmas party package we will also be playing there on New Years Eve.

We’ve only just found out ourselves so the events are yet to go live on their website but you should be able to book places here.

Alternatively, if you’re a North East business planning your Christmas events and think we may be right  band for you then please do get in touch. We still have a number of dates left.

Christmas Eve – The Ox, Stanley – 9pm

New Years Eve – Steels Club, Sunderland – 9pm

New Years Day – The Blake, Seghill – 5pm

All these gigs mean that this will probably be our last post of the year so we’d like to take the opportunity to thank you all for making 2013 a great year for us! Whether you’re a couple that booked us for your wedding, the land lord or lady that let us play to their punters or even just a drunken fool that made us chuckle, 2013 wouldn’t have been the same without you!

Our diary is looking busy for next year so we hope to see you all at some point in what we predict will be a great year.

Merry Christmas and All The Best!

What Phil didn’t realise was that less than a week later, when we played the NHS Trust party at The Gosforth Park Marriot Hotel, just outside Newcastle, his mind would be further blown. While perusing the hotel’s desert menu he stumbled across Eaton Mess and when he found out that this was basically smashed Pavlova he just had to order. Things Phil loves; Peacocks and Meringue based puddings.

Friday gone saw us at The Royal Station Hotel in the centre of Newcastle for the wedding of Gary and Stef. An unusually early start time of half seven meant that the sober crowd were at first unwilling to venture onto the dance floor but come the second set we had them up and dancing.

Saturday’s wedding was a little further afield at Otterburn Castle in Northumberland. Kerri and James booked us over a year ago after seeing us perform at Mr. Lynch in Jesmond , there advanced planning meant they got us at last years rates. If you’re reading this with a view to booking us for a future date then be aware there is no such thing as too far in advance for us! Anyway, back to the wedding. The venue was great and although a little remote it’s certainly worth checking out. A special mention to the venue’s wedding coordinator, Stefan who was on the ball throughout and very helpful. We had a great night, so much so we didn’t mind the late drive back. Thanks and all the best to Kerri and James.
