We take January off, as usual, to learn some new tunes and to do some day job stuff and then back at in February with a gig called “Cover Stories” where we are joined by Junkyard Dogs, 3MO, Dr Alibi, Jack Card and Solarbird to play in remembrance of Thom Belk and in support of the Thom Belk Foundation. We were supported by the chaps at BSM Sound and the event was put on by Salisbury Live. A lively audience made for a great night and Thom Belk’s presence was definitely felt. We all miss him greatly.

March is a busy month for us and we start off with a familiar venue – Qudos in Salisbury. We choose to launch a few new songs fully to the world and we are treated to a few roars of appreciation. At one point the singing from the audience was louder than Amber. Which is impressive!

We also played a corporate function at The Stones and then played our first gig at the Angel Inn in Andover. What a great place to play!! Lovely people and a fabulous audience. We played two sets: Break Cover – the music you love rocked up, which absolutely got the crowd jumping and a full BC/DC set, which the audience were absolutely captivated by, and drew some amazing comments. Our favourite being “I don’t listen to the music of AC/DC but I would listen to that!”

The first gig of the Easter weekend is our tenth anniversary of playing Salisbury Live gigs at the Salisbury Rugby Club and we celebrate by taking our BC/DC set out for the first time in Salisbury. We have to follow an established Led Zep tribute act but we get great feedback and it serves as a warm up for more gigs in the year. We also get to play Durrington Club on the Easter Saturday.

For April we get to return to the Barford Inn. First time back for a couple of years and yes we do play more AC/DC tunes than usual as this is the pub that really kicked us off on that journey.

Next Up:
BC/DC at Laverstock Live! on 26 May.
