\"VirginKids\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My first gig at Headrow House, the new multi-floored venue for strong beer drinking, tattoo wearing beardy types. Disappointing then, that they don’t serve any of their nice beer in the gig room…….<\/p>\n

\"NerTwi\"<\/a><\/p>\n

…And what got us out early on a Saturday night? Well, the fabulous Nervous Twitch<\/a> of course. Their new LP arrived on tape<\/a> this week and fresh from their 6Music debut<\/a>, they did a great set of punk pop with attitude. I could haver listened to them all night. Managed to have a quick chat with them afterwards – a lovely bunch (and thanks for the badges).<\/p>\n

\"Chaika\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I hadn’t heard of the other bands which is the way I like it – no preconceptions. Next up was Leeds band Chaika <\/a>who were Very, Very Good! Top indie tunes – fast, melodic and compelling, but what often seperates a great indie band from a good one is the lead singer and Chaika have enormous potential with theirs. Great lyrics (“I always pass that fucking sign, I swear!”) and not afraid to come off stage and prowl in front of it….one to watch…..<\/p>\n

\"Twin\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There are loads of musical genres out there rich for the picking and ‘Twin’ plough a prog-rock field (in looks as well as sound). They started quite brightly with some heavy bass, Led Zep type tunes before exploring the more experimental side…….<\/p>\n

\"Virgin<\/a><\/p>\n

Last up were Virgin Kids<\/a> who play fuzzed-out, high energy, garage rock songs with gusto. Their rhythm section have a fantastic bass player and lead guitarist\/singer seemed to do the whole gg on his tip-toes – must ahave some tough calf muscles that lad!<\/p>\n
