Really enjoyed the Set last night!! The Yards were fantastic!!I have seen you guys a few times now!! Loved the acustic set with Jimbob, but your right some of the songs sound so much better with the electric guitars. Looking forward to getting hold of your cd, & seeing you guys at the Stumble Inn cannock!! Have I heard your support Dodgy? take it easy.
And if that's not your cup of tea, how about a UK exclusive show with Tyla and The Dogs D'amour on Saturday 6th June, as part of the UKs' premier sleaze & glam clubnight Wildside's 6th birthday celebrations!
Please note, this is NOT a solo or acoustic show, but a full electric set featuring all their classic songs!
Support from Silverjet, Union X & Dead Sensation!
Then not only one, but two clubnights until the early hours- Wildside and Maximum Overdrive!
