CAUGHT LIVE [4]: BAND ON THE RUNN

Hello ... Hello ... my old friends ... It's great to see you once again! #300. I knew as soon I arrived at: 'The Kingfisher' in Kingswinford yesterday on a dark and cold night and was greeted by Hayley Parsons decked out in her resplendent dress that this latest gig by: 'Band On The Runn' [BOTR] was going to be a success! And indeed it was folks!

I drove the ten [10] miles or so to this BOTR performance with Christian '[July 2nd 1644]' Evans and Geoff Cook and we were not disappointed with yet another inspired and professional performance by this great Midlands based act who feature Craig Whale; Ian Hammond; Adam Willetts and Dave Cottle and who accurately reproduce - LIVE - the whole musical career of : Sir Paul McCartney with a specific focus on his time with: 'Wings'.

Without a doubt; every time that I go and see this band they improve folks. Superb drum work; keyboard wizardry; great guitar craft together with booming bass and driving vocals. The bands performance of their namesake song: "Band On The Run" and their cover of: "The Long And Winding Road" were sublime. But there was so much more to the BOTR set list than I can put in writing. You need to go see 'em yourself folks - especially as they are now starting to get local media coverage [see above].

ELO Beatles Forever [ELOBF] endorse and recommend: 'Band On The Runn' to all music fans who like the ELO; The Move and The Beatles music genres in particular. The band are now taking bookings for gigs via their web site at: BAND ON THE RUNN or via mobile 'phone on: [07538] 102177.

Until next "Time" in the ELO [and related] universe ... KJS ... 28-Jan-2012
