QUARTER FINAL ROUND IN CAMDEN
The first quarter-finals makes Camden look like it’s still on fire.
The flames have been extinguished but we all felt the heat when all the bands took the stage at the purple turtle. A rock and roll type bar, this, in my opinion is the best-kept secret in north London. All the bands pulled out the best they had during the 6 nights and proved worthy of the next round. So now to the semi finals at Dingwalls……..a place so sacred that Steve Jones from the sex pistols takes residency when in London (the old fart is stuck in L.A. living it up poor soul). And so congratulation to TRANSKEI, IMMA. CYCLE VI, ELVIS RUMION, FREE MINDS, JO WEBB AND DIRTY HANDS, DEEDS OF THE NAMELESS, DUTY PAID, GET DOWN CONVENTION, EXIT STAGE LEFT, DEZERO, THE BACKYARD FLAMES, PIPER SAINT, APHELION LIVE, FREE REIGN, INSOMNIAC, SLD, GENIAC, NEW CROSS GARAGE, FREERUN, DRAGNERVE, IHBNIA, WAYWARD and DOWNFALL. All these bands made to the next round with shows to be remembered. Some improved and sme down right kicked the “old” right in the guts. Congratulations to all…….Come on EMERGENZA SEMI FINALS!
