We played our debut @ De Bees last night and it was a storming show, the venue is just ace, the sound engineer's boss and knows what he's doing, , the PA's good and the crowd get well into it. We were on with two excellent bands, the opening act 'Thought Explode' are a shit hot screamy rock thing that'd go down well with Leucine, really tight and ultra energetic... check them out on their page @ www.myspace.com/thoughtexplodeThe other band 'The Laurels' played similar stuff to us but a little more 'indie'...really cool looking band with some ace songs... check them out @ www.myspace.com/laurelcanyonboulevardWe've been booked again for December, hopefully with a band we played with recently @ the M Club in Crew (another top venue) 'The Targets'...they're kind of a Mod/classic punk band who'd probably go down ace around here, check them out @ www.myspace.com/theuktargetsAnyway, if any of you are out on the road and looking for a decent venue that's not miles away then you really should check out De Bees.

Seconded.
Plus, Damon who runs Debees is the brother of the bloke who runs Telfords Warehouse in Chester. Playing in DeeBees [and doing a good set] definitely helps in getting a gig at Telfords.
And I'm sure it works the other way round, too.

Nice one Adam, thanks for that, we're still trying to get on @ Telfords so if word gets back to them about our De Bees set maybe we'll get something ?? I can't stress enough how good it was to play there, They'd obviously took the time to listen to our demo and had a pretty good idea about what we're about coz we came on to 'waiting for my man' (Velvet Underground) and as soon as the feedback faded at the end of our set they blasted out the Stooges and Dylan ....little things like that mean loads to us....... Hallelujah Man.
