Bruce Jones and his mate from Black Lace have opened a bar in Batley West Yorkshire. Chrissy was there on the opening night. It was advertised in the local papers.

One born every minute. I remember a few of these boat clubs opening up back in the 70's. What these "entrepreneurs" don't seem to realize is that these rust buckets are cheap for a reason. Chrissy Rock? More like Risky Crock.

There's a couple of new tributes about to start up in Beni. One is called Souled on Soul (SOS), featuring Karen Dee, Angie Greer and Tina Majors, and is a tribute to the sounds of Northern Soul. The other is The Petticoats, featuring Beverley Fox and Soosie Kaye Lording, and is a tribute to Brenda Lee and Dusty Springfield.

Also on Calle Gerona the ex Game Bird (Carriages) Bar is to become a "Mod" Bar and will feature Carnaby Street as its resident band 7 nights a week!

Thanks for that info Taggy, I have a sneaky feeling this could be one hell of a success and I wish the boys well. Just a bit too young for the mods and rockers era but I grew up with four older brothers so heard all the music from an early age! These two lads work damn hard on stage and if they can cope with the strain I am sure the rewards will be there. Thir mix of music covers a wide range of the top bands of the time and even if you are not really into the music you can't help but join in with the crowd, the girls absolutely love em. John

Your Welcome John.....I can think of one Young Lass in Particular who does!! Lol!

I'm a bit like you, and just a bit too young to remember it at the time, but watching the film Quadraphinia and also the recent stage musical of the same name, was certainly enjoyable. I'm not greatly into Carnaby Street if i'm being honest, its not really my style or type of Music, but as you say, they are decent musicians who put a lot into their act!

If you are looking for a friendly sports bar showing, Football, Horse racing, with betting available, reasonable drink and food prices and a good choice on the menu.

The Stretford End pub is for you, well recomended.

For all Fans of DebnHer you will be happy to know that as well as continuing with their brilliant Duo shows, they are about to Start up in a New Rock Band in Beni!....It will be called "Rock-It Demons"! ....It will feature Emma on Lead Vocals, Debbie on Lead Vocals & Keyboard, Miguel a Guitarist from Daytona & Heartbreak Bars on Guitar & Backing Vocals, and Simon Berry a DJ at Morgans Tavern on Drums & Backing Vocals!

I think this will be a great addition to Beni's Music scene, the girls are hoping to have this up and running within a couple of weeks, so thats something new to look forward to!
