NWB - Community Blog

Massive playing area, loadsa parking,not that many sockets, no noise meter (apart from landlady! LOL) mixed punters, no lighting
Bit of a miserable landlord though in my opinion..Dr Doom

Can hardly wake (Eeeeer I mean wait) for Saturday. Will Slash be there?

nah but there is a gig reviewer comin sayin someat bout hitler !!!

PMSL Nice one (is that you Nick?)

hiya keef hope your well, ha was only kiddin was that blog funny or what !!!

Gord thats all wrong the 3rd reich will be on you !!!

Runing out of cotton socks Nick. keep laffing em off Lol

hear we go another blog jack. Sorry Gordon !! Drinks are on me saturday. The Usual is it?

Your a hard nosed Roll n Roll rebel G. Is that with Ice an a slice?

Has Trig played this venue G? Seems to have been everywhere these past months. I'll wander back thro the blogs and see what I can find. Now, was that a straight glass or handle?

Both NT and HOTD have played there quite recently to a good reception. As a bonus it seerms the girls behind the bar dress up specially.
I want to do an in-depth review of that element of the gig (PLEASE)!!!!

Have to delete that one mate, I want to see bands live not from across the ward lol

deleted. with seconds to spare lol

Abridged version. A T Shirt would be very nice Mr Dyehouse Hee Hee. Now then not a word young un.

I feel like I might be living on borrowed time !!!

Wonder if that PRS is still up for sale, Something tells me my little blog is gonna cost me. Hee Hee

Is the landlord called Eric ?

G. The pub is in Bromley Cross, Don't want Luis wandering off somewhere else on Saturday, his knowledge of NWB territory is not brilliant , but will improve vastly over the coming months given the locations you guys play in

You reckon we should set off at lunchtime in case we get lost? :)

And Tom will still beat you all there haaa haaa

Thats cos He's knocking up a shelf for the rest of the band to put their gear on mate

Did I mention me and Tom was talking about Paiste Gongs, Roto's, Kettle drums,Timpanis and playng with two 22" kick drums? Ooooh and mounting 8,10,12,14" Toms on a gibralter rail. An before you shop me to you know who, I'm only jestin mate, or am I?

i enjoy playing the Railway Bromley cross, always a good laugh and something funny always happens

loads a room here no probs there!! can be a bit on the quiet side early doors sometimes crowd stay in other room until beer kicks in and inhibitions drop! Bosses tryin hard to build up the repu of the place as it took a knock a few years ago - each time we've been back its been better than previous!
have a good one anyway whatever happens!!

We've had some good 'uns there.
Never had any trouble. Landlord walks around with a black cloud over his head, landlady likes a drink.
You won't get lost, the place is called the "Railway" at Bromley Cross.
It's a real coincidence Bromley Cross railway station is opposite the pub.

The venue is building up, despite them having been saddled with a change of night for the bands. The place used to do really well on a Saturday, but the previous landlords moved everything over to Fridays. I think they have a well supported folk night that would be just as equally well supported on a Friday and people would come in for the bands if they were playing on Saturdays again.

Funnily enough, I went to the huge school across the road - just look for the blue Guinness Rock History plaque over the school door (it's very very very tiny - you won't find it). The place opposite is the pub.
