No Hot Ashes - Annexxe - Alliance
For quite some time now there has been speculation on
No Hot Ashes reforming to do a couple of gigs. Well,
that ain't happening (not yet anyway), so the next
best thing is a collaboration of a couple of ex-No
Hot Ashes members, and a couple of ex-Annexxe band
members !! Paul Boyd, David Irvine and Stevie
Campbell from No Hot Ashes and Eddie Currie, Brendan
McCloskey and Stevie Campbell from Annexxe (...hey
wait...Stevie!! You're such a tart!! ) got together
for a jam and a bit of a laugh. The result is
Alliance, a rock band dipping it's toes into the sea
of time, playing classic rock covers and some nearly
new tunes!
The guys have been loudly putting together a 40
minute set to perform at The Rosetta Bar, Cregagh, on
Friday 10th August as part of a charity event.
Unfortunately Davey Irvine is unable to make the gig
due to other committments but is gutted that he can't
be part of it. "I'm gutted not to be parted of it"
said Irvine...However, he is hoping to get some time
in the future when he can look forward to playing
with the rest of the guys.
Word has it the band are sounding really pretty good,
and thoroughly enjoying it, looking forward to
pulling shapes and rocking The Rosie. Be there on
Friday 10th August to bear witness. And come back
here to get a review of the gig and hopefully some
pics.
