A SET OF MY IMAGES AND A FEW WORDS FROM ONE OF MY FAVOURITE GIGS OVER THE YEARS. THIS IS A GOOD WAY FOR ME TO GO BACK OVER FOLDERS OF SHOTS FROM PAST SHOWS/SETS AND LOOK AGAIN AT THE IMAGES, AND A REAL BONUS IS SOMETIMES FINDING A COUPLE OF OVERLOOKED GEMS.
THIS SECTION WILL CHANGE SO WATCH THIS SPACE.

THE VERY BEST WILL BE MOVED TO MY OTHER GALLERIES WHEN MY "GIG FROM THE VAULTS" CHANGES AT SOME POINT





CURRENT GIG

CHEVY
LEAMINGTON ASSEMBLY 2011

And below are a few of my words on the show from my website archive.


Following on from last years triumphant 30 year reunion show at The Royal Spa Centre, local musical heroes Chevy returned to the Leamington stage, this time to play at the fabulous Assembly.
Support for the evening came from the ever popular local blues outfit The Hangover Blues Band fronted by vocalist and harmonica player Sam Powell who as always performed a set of quality traditional blues standards including 'Fannie Mae' and ‘Farther Down the Road’ with Steve Walwyn guesting on a couple of numbers.
As with last years show Chevy’s 1980 album The Taker made up the majority of the set including the storming title track, ‘You Got Me Running’ which opened the set, ‘Sky Bird’ the albums show piece and a frantic ‘Rock On’, numbers not taken from the album performed included the out and out rockers ‘ Fast Car’ and ‘ Rock City’.
I am so pleased that the band reformed for a few shows as I only managed to see one Chevy gig the first time around and they play such a large part in the musical heritage of this town.
So thanks to Martin, Bob, Paul, Steve, Baz and Ted for bringing back the magic.

Andrew Lock

Verdict - Rock On, really enjoyed the reunion shows.
