Sweet 'n' Sour at the Welly Club 15th July By Michelle Dee
|
|
What a night! Live music from The Applewhites followed by Turismo.
Then dancing into the wee small hours to blinding tunes with a packed dance floor.
Apologies to The Applewhites, I was at the Adelphi whilst you were on.
I am reliably informed by Sweet Assassin, that you rocked.
Turismo looked great on stage

Jesse Malin - York Fibbers 10/07/04 By Nick Quantrill
|
|
I have to admit it, I'm biased. Jesse Malin rules and I won't have a
word said against him.
Like most people I discovered Jesse's music through his association with
Ryan Adams.
After numerous years plodding along with quite frankly,
bad to mediocre punk bands, best mate Ryan produced and provided

Blind Frog Ernie at The Cavern - Saturday 3rd July By Andy Steele
|
|
Blind Frog Ernie, in their current guise, were supposed to make their Cavern
debut some months ago but had to cancel at the last minute due to illness.
Tonight it was clear from the off that they were determined to banish the memory of that
missed opportunity and give the place a proper rocking, East-coast style.

Fraction of The Cost & The Trailers - The Ringside Wednesday 21st July 2004 By Dick Spring
|
|
Walking into Ringside tonight, you could see how the reputation of the
place is growing rapidly, as it was bustling with people.
Various faces were dotted around the place with members of Die For, Le Shed, and Freaks Union
in evidence.
Opening up tonight's gig were Bridlington three piece, The Trailers - although

Music Reviews - Dead or American - Band Bio
|
|
In accordance with the prophecy, Dead or American came into being at the stroke
of midnight on the 31st December, 1999 - the result of numerous failed musical ventures.
Following the departure of founder-member Greg Heuer in 2003 after he realised there was
more to life than this rock n roll pish.
Various bassist were drafted in

The Mingers, Bosseye, The 30 Second Dead, Diverse Unit @ Adelphi Tue 13th July 2004 By Dick Spring
|
|
Bloody hell! It's about time! A proper punk band that had me rolling back the years.
I am, of course talking about Diverse Unit, a bunch of snot nosed punks all around the
age of 15 or so, with a passion and something to say.
The songs were there as well, and for a first gig it showed a talent and tightness of a

Payola and Malibu Stacey at The Springhead Sunday 11th July By Dick Spring |
|
ROCK'N'ROLL!!!!!!!!! Bring it on.
This is what gigs are about; the like of which we haven't seen for many a long
year and in a proper little rock 'n' roll venue.
The Springhead, not known for being a hotbed of originality, despite being
an excellent place to see live music, has stuck it's neck out and booked a fast
rising UK rock band

Le Shed at The Ringside - Wednesday 30th June By Dick Spring |
|
It's been a while since we've had a band in Hull to fill the void left by DumpValve,
since they took a heavier more thrashy direction.
Well, now such a band exists in the Form of Le Shed, who many will have seen gigging
like mad round Hull in recent months, building up a healthy profile.
And now it was the turn of The Ringside to host them

Music Reviews - Eleanor McEvoy and Ade Webb Adelphi 6th July By Michelle Dee
|
|
I was very keen to go to this gig to see the leading lady of Irish folk, as she was billed,
to see whether she lived up to that accolade. Simon the keyboard player from the highly
acclaimed band cowfisH accompanied me I had hoped to avail myself of his
extensive folk music knowledge. I digress..
Eleanor McEvoy was being supported

Windum Earl Wednesday 7th July Ringside, Beverley Road, Hull By Daniel Laney
|
|
It's been a while since my last review so I was more than delighted to write about a band
I have never seen before.
To me Wednesday's have always sucked in a huge way since someone decided to close down Room.
Television on Wednesday is mind numbing (when is it ever good)?
And everyone now seems to enjoy going to the

Music Reviews - Break Even - A Local Band Bio - Plus Gig Dates
|
|
Break Even is a 4 piece rock 'n' roll band based in Hull, East Yorkshire.
Our music lies closer to the garage rock scene but we do not like to categorise our music into any specific
group, as our main concentration is on the song writing.
The band was formed in January 2003 and we have been gigging since January

Blind Frog Ernie at The Cavern Liverpool on Saturday 3rd July 2004-07-09 By Arsenick.
|
|
Bearing no physical resemblance to the Beatles whatsoever, Hull's illegitimate blues-rock rapscallions
Blind Frog Ernie nevertheless did The Cavern proud last Saturday night.
Liverpool's very underground home for boys that rocked the world played host to one of the best rock-and-roll
days out I've had in a long time.
Armed with a forty odd

Music Reviews - Best Original Band Contest at The Springhead Pub (Aston Rd, Willerby) 30 June 2004 By Elsie Creek
|
|
Thirty-six local bands, competing over a period of nearly six months to determine which will make it
big and which should be thrown on the compost heap of shame . . . sound familiar?
There are quite a few band contests for the amateur set, and certain faces are sure to
be seen at each of them. The Springhead Pub,

Music Reviews - Radio in the Raw By Cilla
|
|
It's a local radio station. Ok, it's the BBC so with that comes plenty of kudos.
But it's BBC Radio Humberside - a place I have to admit that I'd steered clear of,
probably since its inception, as a not-cool place to be. In those days there was nothing but Radio 1.
And Raw Talent is a local live radio show. It's so local, you could see Alan Raw,
it's presenter and

Music Reviews - Twice the riot, Die for, Flatline, Tear Jerk and Steel Rules Die @ the Adelphi, 27th June By John Pearman
|
|
I wasn't planning on going to the Adelphi tonight.
You see, I don't really like punk music and it's quite a well known fact amongst my friends.
So why the hell did they turn up at my door and ask me to come? I have no idea.
But upon contradictory insight into the bill as to whether Freak's Union was to play or not,
I decided that the night

Music Reviews- Bryan Adams, Proud Mary and Sketcher at the KC Stadium, Hull Saturday 26th June 04 By Steve Rudd
|
|
St. Helens-based quartet Sketcher were something of a bizarre choice for the first support act
of the night, playing a damn fine brand of pop-punk music.
Still, they did what they were in a sense expected to do, and warmed-up the crowd to a
fantastic degree, with audience participation paramount (even if the extent of

Music Reviews- The Levellers at Beverley Leisure Centre, Friday 18th June By Steve Rudd
|

Spearheading the 21st celebrations of Beverley's mighty Folk Festival, I'll be honest - it took
me a while to grasp the fact that The Levellers were actually in the centre and
ready to play out their hearts, all-acoustically and in high spirits.
In support, a couple of Australian guys by the names

Displacements and Lord Bishop Rocks at The Ringside, 23rd June By Dick Spring
|
|
If ever an act has ever been more aptly named, I don't know, but whatever, tonight's
opening slot was a special guest, short notice appearance.
Lord Bishop is a giant of a man, but rocks like a b**tard. A cool black dude, from
New York (though he is huge in Europe with near constant touring) is making a name
for himself in Blighty
