Last night. Telfords Warehouse, Chester. Thea Gilmore. Occasionally you'll find a video on Youtube of a gig you've been to but what are the chances of finding one the very next morning  |

Sadly we won't be at any of the European dates that Chris Slade's STEEL CIRCLE is playing - all over the place - NOT Alex will catch them though 
Here's wishing them well, Chris (ours) travels to London tomorrow, thence to Switzerland for rehearsal - keeps him out of trouble, I suppose!! 
Hot off the press.....

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the idea that Chris is playing in a tribute band...

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the idea that Chris is playing in a tribute band... Fact is frequently stranger than fiction, just as long as he IS playing, I guess that's the main thing and Chris Slade is a top guy - the two Chris' spend the first 10 minutes after coming offstage thanking one another for being so good and making each other's job easy - one so petite and slim and fit and the other one is our Chris, 6' of bear hug!!!! From what I can gather, Steel Circle happens to, for now, play mainly AC/DC stuff, I, personally, wouldn't have explained the band as a tribute band, I figure it's just the poster's way of explaining who they are and what they do - but whaddo I know?? Then again, they are all tarts, they play if you pay......within reason |

How did you know that?
Is it really true that you are all seeing and all knowing or is the grapevine that good?
Anyway, I am off now otherwise I'll be late for the show!

Paul really is a great drummer, but you never see his name mentioned in any great drummer list. He deserves to be though! |
