Don’t miss this supersonic tribute
The show, at Paisley Town Hall, starts next week, running from March 1 to 3.
Rehearsals are going really well and it is sure to be a knockout.
This is the story of The Bungalow, which was a small venue at the bottom of Renfrew Road, Paisley, during the 70s and 80s, that gained legendary status in the UK music scene.
Those amazing days are brought back to life with a full cast of young live bands, dancers and actors.
Telling the story for the first time ever, the musical will showcase the iconic venue’s rise to fame.
Full of punk and post-punk classics, and much more, the production is truly innovative.
For those who were there at the time, it will be a night of nostalgia, and it will capture the imagination of those experiencing its magic for the first time.
It’s difficult to imagine that a small venue in Paisley attracted big names such as The Fall, The Skids, Orange Juice, Roddy Frame, Tenpole Tudor, The Thomson Twins, Echo and the Bunnymen, Aztec Camera, The Teardrop Explodes and The Damned.
Tickets for The Bungalow musical are available at Tickets Scotland, or on the door.
The Old Swan will be jumping this weekend as the annual Swan Rocks Festival returns.
It looks like another fantastic line-up, starting with Black Triangle tonight at 8pm.
Tomorrow, from 4pm, it will be non-stop rock with Her Way To Hell – Scotland’s newest and only female fronted AC/DC tribute band paying homage to the late Bon Scott.
They are followed by Overdrive, then Heavy Load, before Wreckles and FreeSpeech close the show.
On Monday, The Spuds are back at 3pm and on Wednesday there is a live session from 6pm.
Despite there being rumours of getting back together, usually quashed by Liam Gallagher, Oasis are no more, and one of the only ways you will hear the likes of Wonderwall, Champagne Supernova, Roll With It and Supersonic, is to see an Oasis tribute band.
Since the backstage bust-ups and public slanging matches between the brothers, a number of Oasis tribute acts have appeared on the scene.
One of those bands, Noasis, is at The Bungalow tomorrow night, almost exactly a year to the day that their debut Paisley gig sold out, and they blew the crowd away.
Since their formation in 2006, and with more than 400 performances to date, Noasis has justly earned its reputation as one of the best around.
The band recreates that amazing energy, playing all the classic songs as if they were their own.
This is more than a tribute band, this is a group who have a lot in common when it comes to reproducing the rousing anthems, stage presence and atmosphere that Oasis created. Doors open at 8pm.
This weekend in The Cave, it’s another fantastic four line-up.
Tonight, from 9pm, it is Moonrocks and in the early slot, at 6pm, it is Moonshine Mojo and later on, Sad Ida finishes a super Saturday at 9pm.
On Sunday, The Sneaky Bits will be kicking off at 6pm.
If you don’t catch FreeSpeech at the Swan Rocks Festival, don’t worry as you can see them playing their usual set full of classic punk and rock at The Anchor on Sunday at 4pm.
On Sunday at The Tea Gardens, Dirty Jewels will be playing from 6pm.
Status Quo tribute band Heavy Traffic, and Mr Blue Sky, an ELO tribute act, are at Callum’s Cavern tonight at 8pm.
Open mic nights are — Sunday at The Bungalow, with Cat Caldwell, from 8pm; Monday, at 8pm, at The Abbey Bar, hosted by Dunky Hunter; Andy Lindsey is at The Anchor on Tuesday, from 8pm; and on Wednesday Johnny Barr is the host for Burger and Keg, at 8pm.
