The Whip

Local talent the The Whip followed the first support act "Gasperilla" (who were indeed very good and worth looking out for in the future!)

The former's set consisted of discoid, electro rock that really got the crowd moving and came across very well live. Considering they were a member light they were easily my favourite band of the line up. They have a new single out shortly entitled "Muzzle No.1" which I shall definitely be off to purchase, although I didnt know any of their songs on the day to say I enjoyed their sound was an understatement. Members present on the day were Bruce on vocals, lead guitar and synth, the very photogenic & cheeky looking Danny on bass and Fiona on drums, who kicks so hard that the drumkit kept sliding forward and constantly had to be repositioned. They filled their 45min set easilly and there wasnt a moment of boredom or dullness about them, finishing nicely with recent release Trash wich sent the EMO kids pogoing along!
