   About The Mile
For The Mile teeshirts and badges, visit the store on CafePress! There is no better feeling on the planet than having 4 humble souls join together as one in their unrelenting search to create something great and then actually coming close to achieving it. This is what was felt when The Mile formed in the back of a local drinking whole in deepest darkest Leicester. What went on to be created will surely soon have them competing along side the likes of Editors, U2 and The Foo's, but for the time being, at least, the band are untiring in their quest to find those out there that need the bands music, and unsurprisingly, this is a group that is growing rapidly. The music created by The Mile carries across most boundaries other bands come up against, something that becomes only too obvious if you were to go see this band live, you would find yourself in a room of people that seemingly have absolutely nothing in common, young, old, and every colour and persuasion you could think of all sharing in their love of the sound and experience that is The Mile. This is a band on their way up and at the end of most gigs you will find followers exited about the fact that they were there at the beginning. Managed By: Get Your Band On.

Hoping you can join us for an evening of primitive fun!

Next Saturday at the Lava Lounge:
Never before seen in Leicester, the finest 4 man masked wrestling rock and roll tag team north, south, east and west of the squared circle:

THE COYOTEMEN

described by Lava Lounge organiser Liz as: 'the best band I have ever seen in my life!'
With support from teenage garage punk upstarts

THEE VICARS

(first ever Leicester show) picking up the budget rock and roll crown where the Mummies left off.




Also featuring the long awaited return of Leicesters legendary punk and roll losers:

THE POKERS

their first show for 3 years, we welcome back the most raucous party starters ever to come out of the cheese city.




And thats not all: for your £1.

99
you also get to see (also for the first time ever in Leicester) the raw garage punk explosion that is

THE DESPONDENTS

Wowza!

First band will be on at 8, all bands have to finish by 11.



don't be late or you will miss out on the wildest rock and roll blowout Leicester has ever seen!

Saturday 19th April
Doors open at 7.00pm, £1.

99 entry
Upstairs at the Firebug Bar,
Millstone Lane,
Leicester.





Followed by a swingin' dance party 'till 3, playing all the usual hip shaking, shimmy inducing Lava Lounge fare: Greasy grind, fuzzed up garage, dirty punk, sleazy lounge, sloppy rhythm and blues, wild rock and roll, crazed instrumentals and more!
