Tonight begins the
first of two nights shooting at The Royal Standard in Sheffield. Tonight’s bands are Galleon, Severance
and one of my local favourites Coyote Mad Seeds. The first two bands are great! They’re heavy and rock n roll all suitable for opening for a
band like CMS. They’re pretty damn
good as well. Coyote Mad Seeds
play a great show tonight and have the presence of an inflatable sheep onstage,
a possible mascot for future shows like Iron Maiden’s infamous Eddie
mascot. One way to wrap up this
gig was Chris’ bass string breaking after a song but it doesn’t stop the
gig. A few of us decide to invade
the stage, so all in all wraps up yet another good CMS gig.
The Verals are another
quality Sheffield band that just get better and better every time I see
them. I really hope they make it
big on the music scene. Tonight
sees them releasing their EP and they also have new songs to show which sound
great. There’s a great turnout for
them as well with lots of people turning up on this gorgeous sunny day! After them are acoustic band The Velcro
Teddy Bears. A great band that
just look like they’re having great fun onstage as they play their music with
the people dancing away to the songs.
A great fun evening to conclude the weekend, I’d happily do these kind
of nights as much as I can.
