Hellfire Rock Club Returns This Friday at The Globe Hellfire Rock club was a monthly rock night in Legends (following the closure of Red Rooms) which had a bias towards the more retro side of rock and metal. We're bringing it back... we've got the original line-up of DJs, Kev, Mel and Dave and we'll be playing our Hellfire style mixes at The Globe on Railway Street this Friday 29th May. Entry is £4 before 11.30pm and £5 after - the night runs 10pm-3am. The  facebook event is here  and  facebook page is here. Hellfire was always a fun night to do - if you used to come when it was at Legends then it's your chance again and if you didn't, then, well, come along because this is a great night of rock music for everyone :) Our top played bands in that time are below and we expect a similar mix : AC/DC, Aerosmith, Alice Cooper, Andrew WK, Bon Jovi, Bowling For Soup, Buckcherry, Def Leppard, Deftones, Disturbed, Faith No More, Faster Pussycat, Fea

With the added twist, this time around, of Phil himself taking on the vocal duties,welcome to Phil Barry’s new band,   Be My Enemy . Be My Enemy’s debut album “This Is The New Wave”, was 10 tracks of techno-metal every bit as brutal as the riot-gear-clad police that adorn the cover. Analogue rave synth lines and break beats battle with chunky metal guitars to evoke the finest moments of other British dance/rock crossover acts like Pitchshifter and Prodigy: all topped with the sneering Lydon-esque v

Acoustic Circus  First Thursday Every Month Staiths Cafe Bar In the delightful surroundings of Staiths Cafe Bar, with a view of the historic Dunston Staiths (and at the right time of day plodging in the mud, waders of various species- look out for redshank, curlew and other long beaked worm seekers). In the mud-free environment of the cafe, you can treat yourself to a pleasant drink and homemade curry and sit back and enjoy the music. Simma has an amazing ability to play a wide variety of music just with his guitar and voice, so why not come in with some requests (just not "The Best" by Tina Turner). He will be joined by musicians from around the area keen to play new songs and old. If you have musical talent why not show it off in this relaxed environment?  Get in touch with Simma: simma.singer@gmail.com to book a spot.
