PUNK covers band NEEDED for THIS SATURDAY

Posted By : ~ THE SUG4R BULLETS ~ | Comments : 8

Colliers Arms, Chadderton........please read >

Regrettably we have had to cancel our gig at the Colliers Arms this Saturday - we received a call from a band member this morning who explained that a member of his family is very very ill.

I have already spoken to landlord Dave at the Colliers who is obviously dissapointed but understanding of the situation. We have offered to do everything we can to help find a suitable replacement.

So...in the la la land of the North West...are there any bands similar to us who can fill in THIS SATURDAY? As Dave has been actively promoting the night as a Punk gig, ideally a Punk covers band is needed so that his punters aren't dissapointed.

Any suitable bands please contact Dave direct on 07545 857783.

As much as we are equally dissapointed, we need to stand by our fellow bandmate & good friend, and respect his decision at this time.

Thanks

I have now been informed that Bolton based Punk covers band STRANGEWAYS will play at the Colliers this Saturday. I don't know them personally but a massive thanks to them for filling in.

We will be back on the road as soon as possible.

Thanks
Dean
