No Life For A Horse	May 30 2006 10:45 AM NO LIFE FOR A HORSE : Friday 2nd June 2006 www.myspace.com/nolifeforahorse New monthly music club (well into it's 3rd month...) THE MOSAICS Formed in November 2004, the band soon gained the label of being one of the brightest young prospects to come out of the North East, captivating many audiences with their songs and dazzling live performances. With influences ranging from Coldplay and U2, through to Jeff Buckley and Joni Mitchell, they have achieved a unique style of their own marrying heartfelt lyrics with aching melodies that stand up against the very best pop tunes of today. www.myspace.com/mosaicmusic1 PELLETHEAD Classic punk performance-art from this Middlesbrough-based 4-piece. Frantic guitar strummery; whacky lead guitar lines stemming from the two-note solos of the late 70's (think of the Buzzcock's Boredom); manic bass melody; thumping drums that thoroughly shock-wave the entire kit. The inevitable Fall comparison is not unfair, but there's far more fun in Pellethead than that curmudgeonly Mark E Smith bloke could ever deliver. Songs are about "real life" (whatever that is). Social observation of phenomena like "Paddy Badway" and Middlesbrough FC's "Defending too deep". Pellethead's quirky punk is too good to miss. www.myspace.com/pellethead CHEEKY THIEF A singer/songwriter from the North East of England, also known as Chris Wright. www.myspace.com/cheekythief or www.cheekythief.com plus No Life for a Horse DJ Collective providing the musical interludes, playing americana, folk, leftfield alternative, alt country, mashed up beats etc... Upstairs@The Clarendon, Tower Street, Hartlepool Doors: 8.30pm -1am / Entry: £3 NEXT DATE : 15/07/07 'no life for a horse: for music, not for profit'
No Life For A Horse	Apr 18 2006 4:40 PM I get all my bands from Myspace, and use this as the main form of contact, it's great and saves on mobile phone calls........ and it;s how I contacted you for the June 2nd gig.........
Moses	Apr 16 2006 7:56 PM now then the Chris - have you ever played the Clarendon? We have a gig there on Tuesday May 23rd and I was thinking we played there before but I was wrong, we've not. We're touring with a Candian frind of ours so theres already us and her - If possible do you want to play too? hope you are great cheers Mose Junior
