What do you play?

😉

sax

will you be at the Warwick Folk Festival in July?

somehow I don't think so. but we're hoping a friend of ours, Gerry McNeice, will be

i was just joshing, i'd love to see you play, leeds is a bit far really

'tis our debut gig, and as we happen to live in/near Leeds, it kind of made sense 😉

Playing Bradford next Friday, then it goes quiet for a while

I shall be there. Hopefully drag a few uni mates along too.

Downloaded the EP after Mrs Flash put me onto you – tis good stuff.

many thanks, WLD.
I think we're on third, which would be about 9.30pm, but don't quote me on that. doors open 8pm, last band should finish by 11pm

and thanks to MrsFlash for the plug 🙂

link to EP download?

I know Gerry McNeice, used to go biking with him lots.

It's on iTunes, Amazon – look for The Wick Effect 'I Will Stand'. There have been other bands called The Wick Effect so make sure you get the right one 😉

Cheers Mick.

Btw it's cheapest on Amazon! By 10p per track

cheers. that's really good, love the jangly guitar sound (drumming is ok too!)

Our song 'I Will Stand' is on the playlist for The Indie Show on AmazingRadio.co.uk next Tuesday. 7pm-8pm

It's also nominated in Woho Music's Track Of The Month poll for February 🙂

just found out it's £4 advance, £5 on the door, if that makes any difference. Still cracking value, £1.25 per band

weak lemon drink, is that you Jamie?

hi Clare, thanks for the plug 🙂

will we be seeing you & Rich tomorrow night?

hi clare! yes tis me 🙂 Are you in your wigwam??

Good gig last night John! I thought you guys were excellent – shame the set wasn't a couple of songs longer coz you seemed to be just getting into your stride. I Will Stand was a brilliant finisher tho.
"like an indie Joy Division" was what my mate reckoned.

Really enjoyed Hunting Bears too. Although not really a fan of those noisy kids, and I quite liked Leesa up until the crazy salsa backing track appeared and it went a bit X-factor for me!! She does have a cracking voice tho.

Look forward to the next one!

Top gig fellas – thoroughly enjoyed it. Hope the photos were OK 😉

Cheers Jamie, glad you liked it 🙂

Next gig is Friday 5th March (yes, next Friday) at Zuu Bar in Bradford. Doors open 8pm, £2 to get in. Last trains back to Leeds are at 11.04pm and 12:37am Saturday

Photos look excellent stAn, thanks – I'm surprised how many you got considering how little battery there was. Haven't had a proper look yet as the battery is now on charge, but I'll stick them on Flickr & send you a link when I can. Probably tomorrow evening as I'm away for the weekend

BTW "I Will Stand" is nominated in Woho Music's Track of The Month poll – if you like it, you can vote for it here: http://www.wohomusic.net/page/track-of-the-month. You'll need to register but it is free
