The Ice Band and The Sugar Bullets

Another fantastic weekend for us.

Friday night brought the first visit from out new Monthly Resident band The Ice Band.
They are brilliant, very eighties influenced, but very catchy and good for a dance. They went down really well with the regulars and we can't wait to have them back next month.

Saturday night brought us The Sugar Bullets, and Oh My God they totally rock. One of our best nights yet, they really know how to keep a crowd in. The Welly was totally buzzing all night and left wanting more, we've already been asked when their coming back, which will hopefully be soon.

So thanks for a fantastic night chaps, you definately worth the wait.

Donna,
Thanks for the kind words.
An absolute pleasure to play the Welly on Sat night, we really enjoyed every minute of it and can't wait to come back - I'll phone you later to sort a date out.
Your punters there defintely know how to enjoy themselves, especially after being on the lash all day hehe.
So thanks again to you & Darren for making us so welcome.

Cheers
Dean.

PS. Any band reading this who hasn't played at the Welly yet get in touch with them, great pub with a good set up for the bands (lights/smoke machine etc) and brill audience. Just don't start the night with "Hi Accrington" to a room full of pissed up English/Welsh Rugby fans....its Clayton-le-Moors theyre from not Accy lol.

Thanks Donna, thats really lovely of you to speak so kindly of The ICE band, we are very chuffed and thanks again for taking a risk on an Originals band we had a lot of fun. We will drop by with some posters and a cd next week hopefully xx

@Janie, your very welcome, we really did enjoy the night and we loved the music. You did leave me a CD so just need posters, computer still not playing nice.

@Dean, glad you enjoyed it and look forward to seeing you again in June.
