   About The Highway Somewhere
Brothers,Sisters,Sinners....we all know the Devil has all the best tunes. The Highway Somewhere are here to use those tunes so we can all worship at the High Altar at the Church Of Rock 'N' Roll!!! We're here to preach to the converted & covert the non-believers...ARE YOU WITH US PEOPLE?? CAN I GET AN AMEN?!......Lord Have Mercy*************************'.......an acoustic outfit playing a folky set with a bluesy feel.....it is refreshing that The Highway Somewhere have a decent set of considered orginal tunes to play....they work fine as they are' ART & SOUL MAGAZINE GIG REVIEW************************************ 'Cheers Guys for a great night at The Hit or Miss, Stamford. We look forward to your return....Thanks Again' HIT or MISS, STAMFORD********************************************** '.........kicked off the afternoon with a great set which inspired all the other bands into really great performances, as for the skins, punks and emo kids "clapping politely" you should know that "politeness " aint there thing ... ! they clapped cause they appreciated your musicianship! PETERBOROUGH PUNK CLUB ********************************* '.......this was my first taste of the "new" band but I thought I had a pretty good idea what to expect. HOW WRONG WAS I !!!!! This wasnt just an old band with a couple of new members. This was brand spanking new everything. The songs, the energy, the performance.....the set list completely blew me away. Covers ranging from Led Zep & Neil Young to REM & some of Nigels own songs. And a cover of 'Whiskey' by Dzem, the Polish rock band, by Paul.........' Lorraine,RAINSHINE PROMOTIONS @ The Hit Or Miss 07/08/09................... '...................I really do mean thank you for the brilliant show that you and your band put on. I must say I've had a lot of good, positive feedback from the day ...........' GORDON @ OPENMICMUSIC****************************** THS- Nige Paul Dave THS- Nick Thorpe
