With the country still in the midst of lockdown and no sign of any live music in the foreseeable future if at all this year I thought I would take the opportunity to look back in the archives, sounds posh I know but it’s just an spreadsheet, and revisit gigs I attended on this day down the years. I will keep this going until I can attend my first gig again in person so hopefully this also brings back memories for my gig going chums who have joined me on this great musical journey down the years.
After an epic 11th July there’s just the one today for my trip down memory lane for you down the years
2001, Proud Mary, Dingwalls, London
Its Noel Gallagher’s protégés today for one of their first shows in their career supporting their fine debut album. Around that time we seemed to spot either Noel or Liam in many gigs but this band had Noel’s endorsement.
Of course they are a sixties throwback band but if you like a bit of blues rock then you couldn’t go wrong with them. They are still going but I’d be lying if I said I had kept up to date with their recorded output.
A fine show for a solid if not spectacular band.
That’s it for today’s trip down memory lane. Here’s hoping we can get to some form of normality soon. Support your small local venues and smaller artists in these difficult times, stay safe and keep on rockin y’all.
