fantastic band The Bell Inn, Creech St Michael on Sat 2nd Feb 08
Review edited by Lemonrock to improve readability, by consent of the band/artist, or owner of the page. This Band were fantastic!

"Summer of 69" was my favourite although i loved "I'm a Believer", "Johnny B Goode" and "Got my Mojo Working" too!

Everyone in the pub was having a good night and singing along and dancing! It looked like the band were really enjoying themselves too.

The guitar solos were amazing especially Hotel California! Playing the harmonica and the guitar at the same time was really impressive! A great gig!
A music fan, Wed 13th Feb 08
Reply from The Valetones: Thankyou for the Review and the very kind feedback - you're right we really were enjoying ourselves ! It was great to see people singing along, dancing and having a good time - that's what it's all about at the end of the day. C U Again soon. Col. ( VT's)

Please consider the environment before printing this flyer.
Print 3 flyers per A4 page, with marked cutting guides. Hint: setting your start date to the first of a month, and your end date to the last day of a month, gives a neat heading on your flyer, e.g. setting 1 May 2008 and 31 Aug 2008 as the start and end dates will produce the heading: 'MAY - AUGUST 08'. Try it! You can also set the font size to a decimal value (e.g. 9.3) to make the gigs fit exactly onto the page.

[Mon 12th May 08]   HOT AND SWEATY ! Wow was that the warmest evening of the year or wot?
Just recovering from Friday nights Gig at the pen and Quill - it was a warm one must have downed about 4 pints of water in the first set alone ! Thanks to everyone that came along and supported us. We've just taken a booking to play at the Lethbridge at Bishops lydeard this coming saturday (17th may) - might have to invest in some fans ( the electric ones ! ) if it's gonna be as warm again. See you there !
