| Subject | Cherry Brakewells @ Zenith Bar |

| I find myself heading off to see the Cherry Brakewells again - in Islington this time. The Zenith Bar turns out to be a pub really, but it's not a bad place. It's free to get in on this 'Chicks Rock!!' night and it soon becomes apparent that it is in fact a gay night - with blokes supposedly there by invitation only. No one seems bothered though, and the atmosphere is good and the drinks reasonably priced. The Cherry Brakewells play well and are certainly appreciated by the club's clientelle.  The band are obviously enjoying themselves, and the sound mix is surpisingly good for such a basic setup - well worth a trip out on a Thursday night.  Next on the bill is Sharron Levy who I missed when she played first on the bill with the Cherrys at The Gaff a few weeks ago.  Her solo acoustic seems quite good, although not really my thing and I miss most of it while chatting to the Cherrys outside. Still, it's been an interesting night with a good vibe and I'd certainly come to another 'Chicks Rock!!' night if there was a band playing I liked. |
These Blogs mainly deal with the countless gigs I go to, but there is some other stuff in there too - and the odd rant! I've just finished adding over 900 of my old posts from MySpace on here - everything is now on proper chronological order from 2005 to date - there is a LOT to read. Some of the older links may not work anymore - just click on the highlighted text for links to more info.
